I have lots of file with the date as part of the filename for example.
snapshot-2013-10-01.7z
snapshot-2013-01-10.7z
When I try to search for a file name using 2013-10 it return BOTH the above whilst it should only list the 1st entry.
Is there a trick to searching something like this ?
I am attempting to write a batch script that uses a program called Mailsend to send an email. The script then examines Mailsend's log output to determine if the email was successfully sent.
This is what I have so far:
Code: mailsend1.17b14.exe -to <snip personal info> -log temp.txt -attach test.txt.TailTail -1 temp.txt > temp2.txtDel temp.txtSet /p Message=<temp2.txtSet Message=%Message:~26%Set Cmess=Mail sent successfullyEcho %Message%Echo %Cmess%If "Message"=="Cmess" ( Echo Correct ) Else ( Echo Wrong )
Here is a rundown of what I am doing:
-The first line sends the email.
- The second and third use a program called Tail to delete all lines except the last one from the log file (the last line contains the output I'm looking for).
-The next 2 lines then assign the contents of the log file to a variable then truncate the first 26 characters (date and time info that I don't need).
-The next line creates a second variable that contains the desired output (i.e. "Mail sent successfully")
-The next two lines echos the contents of the variables.
-And finally, the last line compares the two variable and takes a particular action depending on whether the two variables are equal or not.
The comparison at the end is where I'm having problems. Every time I run the script, the last line I get printed on the screen is "Wrong" (i.e. the "Echo Wrong" command is executed meaning "Message" does not equal "Cmess"). This happens even when the email was sent successfully. I've tried various things and I haven't managed to get the "Echo Correct" command to ever execute, even when the output of the two Echo commands just before is exactly the same. I've even tried changing the "Set Cmess" line to:
Code: Set /p Cmess=<temp2.txt Set Cmess=%Cmess:~26%
And the output for the comparison is still "wrong". I can only think that there must be something wrong with how I structured the comparison.
How to get this script to work or script means of checking the log file for "Mail sent successfully"? This is what the log file contains if an email gets sent successfully:
Code: 07-Jun-2014 08:17:28.172: mailsend v@(#) mailsend v1.17b1407-Jun-2014 08:17:33.011: Mail sent successfully
I have a very strange issue which makes using Windows Search more difficult.
File Explorer opened to Computer or Libraries > No search. I can type whatever I want to search field, search simply does not start. From the net I found this issue being quite common when you have mapped network drives which are currently offline. This is not my case, when this issue first occurred a week or two ago I had no mapped network drives.
I can search normally all other locations, for instance if I am not sure on which hd a file is located I must search each HD individually as the Computer view search wont start.

when i make a search for directories, then i double click on the wanted directory; now i would like to navigate as normal, instead explorer keeps in the path box "search-display.." not allowing me to navigate or to expand directory tree, how can i instruct it to exit search mode and continue from that path?

When I open Windows Explorer (Windows 8.1) the search box on upper-right corner doesn't work in the Google drive folder. It works on all other folders. That is: when I enter the name of a file inside this folder, the search returns "0 items".
View 3 Replies View RelatedNever had this problem before I have two files in an otherwise empty folder but there are no extensions after the file name. I can't add an extension to the files. I can't rename them or move them or delete them. Every time i try any of these things i am being told that: "the element wasn't found. It is no longer located in (insert name here) control the elements place and try again"
What that means. I even tried to delete them from the cmd...

View 4 Replies View RelatedWindows 8 search refuses to search items in my control panel. For example, if I tap the windows key and type "power options" or "Sound" I get nothing. I'm pretty sure this is supposed to work as it's mentioned in many of Microsoft's own documents as the easiest way to navigate to these settings.
Other searches are working, including files on secondary drives, etc.
It seems I have to open File Explorer and use the search box there to search the contents of my IE Favorites folder. Is there anyway to add the same capability to the Start Screen Search. So far all I can do is put in the word "favorites" and start screen search finds the Favorites folder but it can't find any of the internet shortcuts (*.url files) within the Favorites folder. Is this normal? If so how can I change the normal behavior so it works like the start button search from Vista and Win7?

Due to an error when saving these files, I need to change these 756 file numbers to FIN_1891_001_001 to FIN_1891_001_756.
Is there any easy way of doing this without having to change each file name individually.

I realise that I can obviate scrolling by reducing the zoom from 100% to 75% but I don't find that very comfortable, the text size is then too small for my liking.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI used to have Vista, when I had multiple windows open in an application (and they were combined in the taskbar) the number of windows used to be displayed next to the icon. Now I have Windows 8.1, this feature seems to have disappeared and the only way I can see how many windows are open is to manually count them one-by-one. The only difference when the application combines the windows is that is looks to have 3 windows combined on the right hand side of the application in the taskbar.
Is there any way to get this number back? I think this feature may have been removed from 8.1, but if it has is there a workaround?
I have 2 Microsoft accounts. I have enabled 2 step verification for both of them. With one account, I was able to enter my cell phone number to complete the process, so I would receive a text message if a device I haven't set to trusted tries to log in to that account. I tried the same process on the second account, and whenever I try to enter the same cell phone number, I get an error page that the service is 'temporarily unavailable'. I have tried every combination of entering the cell phone number that I can think of, and nothing works for that second account.
With the first account, I was using the Opera browser to enter the information. With the second account, I was using IE 10. With the second account, I get an e-mail with a verification code if an untrusted device tries to log in. This is OK, but I would prefer to receive a text to my cell phone instead, as I do not always have such instant access to my e-mail account.
Or can you not use the same cell phone number for 2 accounts?
Edited to add: This is the exact message I get when I try to have MS send a code to my cell phone:
There's a temporary problem with the service. Please try again. If you continue to get this message, try again later.
I've been doing some research online this evening, doing a search with that message. It looks like this is pretty hopeless. Once people see this message in relation to any MS services, there seems to be no solution for it. I guess I should just be grateful that I at least haven't been locked out of my Windows Live account entirely, since Windows 8 is so tied to being able to connect to one's Microsoft account. Of course, the account I use for my throw-away Hotmail account works just fine.
The format I've used for the phone number is (XXX) XXX-XXXX . I've tried variations of that with brackets, spaces, and hyphens, nothing works, but at least e-mail verification still does.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have bought a new laptop with win 8.1. ( I would have preferred Win 7 but it only came with win 8.) This laptop is being dedicated as a paperless file storage system. I scan all my paperwork to PDF files and store in folders.
I have been trying to find a way to be able to search these PDF files, the only way I have found was to add words in the file tags. I can search OK in Win 7 but the tags do not appear in win 8.1.
I was a heavy user of the Windows 7 desktop search, either by the taskbar or the start menu. I most often used it to find emails, especially when I didn't remember which of my many accounts received the item. It worked across Outlook 2010, Live Mail, and Thunderbird.
Is it somewhere hidden in Windows 8? If not, is there an alternative? I believe the mail is still being indexed so it may only be a client that accesses the database that is needed.
