I'd like to create a .bat which closes multiple .exe processes just by opening it: 1. I open the file from my desktop 2. File closes for example svchost.exe and explorer.exe and finally the file itself. This is because I don't need some programs, which open when Windows starts, every time.
I've been noticing some strange problems with my win2k box recently. If I go to the task manager, I notice I get multiple IEXPLORER.EXE processes appearing, some taking a good quantity of RAM over. If I try and end the process it comes back after a second and grows in file size. I've read some other threads and have HijackerThis 1.9, I can't see anything suscpicious in the log, but I'm a novice at that sort of thing. Also I checked for trojans etc and other files/folders but could see anything obvious.
What I want to do is create a .bat that will copy a file to several locations(all within the same folder, however with different names).
I have a folder that contains the master copy of my db and I want to run the batch file to update the users db files. The reason being is they each use thier own front end.
I have a computer that quits explorer every time I try to click on the file menu, or right click on explorer and go to the new link. It also does this when i try to delete a folder in explorer or through my computer.
Many times I save one file or word document or a web page in 2 to 5 different folders. Right now I do it by opening each folder separately and using save as dialog box. But this is redundant and takes up a lot of time.
Using findstr to find strings is fairly easy. I am trying to search recursively through a path, but only want to check one of three file types: *.java, *.properties or *.xml.I know how to do one:Code :findstr /pinsc:"my weird search string" *.java But how to tell findstr to look only in *.java, *.properties and *.xml files without having to run findstr 3 times?
At any one time I have approx 60 processes running, even after just booting up my computer. Although I am not a computer expert, this seems like too many to me. I was wondering if anyone could help me by telling me if this definitely is too many to run at once, and if there is some way I can post a list of the running processes and have someone with more knowledge help me get rid of some of them.
Win Xp, Dell and cable connection When I do ctrl>alt>del, it shows 17 System processes running. Are all of these necessary? Also, some of the other running processes i recognize, i.e. firewall, IM, anti-virus, but some of them I don't have a clue what they are. Is there a list somewhere of what should/shouldn't be running necessarily?
i want to copy my custom desktop.ini file and background image to all of my folders that i have on my flash drive.So needless to say i dont want to to this one by one to each folder.
I'm having a problem "finding" my music files after I moved some files around on the computer between users.My simple solution was to copy them to an external HD and the re-load them so I searched for all music files then selected all and attempted to copy them to the external HD, but I got an error message: "cannot copy file.cannot read from the source file or disk".
I am using a POWER USER account, Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 /w all the latest patches availible via microsoft update. I was trying to create a .zip file of a folder within the primary directroy of a backup hard drive I use.
For Example: D:stuff - I wanted to make a zipfile of the folder "stuff."
Then I get the following error "Cannot Create Output File."
However, if I move the folder to the destop or a subdirectory i.e. stuff/more stuff, then the .zip file is created with no problems.
Also, because user accounts [at least in my experience] have a tendency to decay, I created a freash power user account and the same problem persist.
Is this a standard security feature for power user accounts? Is there anyway I can "disable" it if it is?
I have multiple partitions on my HD so that I can have things like the OS and the page file on separate partitions for ease of defrag etc. (OK, haven't done this before and am not sure how smart it was after all)Anyway, I decided to move "My Documents" folder from the C drive to a much larger partition to save fragmentation on C. No big deal, it's easy to do.But here's the kicker... once I'd created a My Documents folder in the larger partition, I decided to click on it and move it to the top of the list of folders, using the My Computer screen.
How many & what processes are necessary to start and run xp. Some maintanence programs that tell me how many running processes are there is around 20 to 30 processes. Which I think is slowing down the boot up of my laptop.
I have a ISO file which is of 600 MB, but the contents inside it is about 1200 MB. This means that files inside it are in compressed format. How can I create a compressed ISO file in the same way.

whenever I go to install anything lets say a game or an application the installation screen comes up for just one second and then it just goes away like it was closed by something i have messed around and searched around but I have no answers and i am not getting any file errors when this happens but when I restart computer it says missing windows kernell32.dll file and that is the only thing basically wrong and i almost forgot I am running windows 2000 pro
When I go away from my computer, and leave it on deliberately, the monitor goes black and the green light blinks continuously. I don't want the computer to go off at all unless I turn it off, because I tape a radio program that is on for at least for one hour. I want the program to keep recording until I turn it off. How do I stop the computer from closing like this when I am not with it?
The Windows XP machine that my sister is using is having quite the issue. Whenever she views a folder in her My Pictures folder from Windows Explorer, in Photoshop, or when uploading to something onto the internet, it closes down. To be more specific, in the above three cases it closes Explorer (including the task bar), Photoshop, and the browser, depending on the method of viewing the pictures. It comes up with a submit error dialogue box, which along with the error logs don't seem to help me very much (unless you have a better understanding of them).The only changes I can account for was the instillation of one or two LAN remote viewing programs, although one of them runs as is (so wouldn't count as installing). Before that I uninstalled a lot of programs from that computer because I have this new Vista Ultimate machine and they said they didn't want all that "crap" on that computer anymore. I wouldn't blame them.
