Temp File Causing Errors / Removing File Permanently?
Oct 26, 2006
I have a laptop, and a file named 1.tmp has appeared (how or why I do not know) in my c/windows/system32 folder that throws up an error message window saying it cannot find the program to run the tmp file, and that appears on my screen every time I log on.So; I thought I could simply go into the sys32 folder and delete the 1.tmp file by putting it in the trash can, as it obviously does not belong there.BUT it will not let me, if I try I get an error message telling me I do not have access or the disc is full even when I use the administrator level so now I am completely at a loss and I do not understand.

when I start my ms outlook 2007 I get this error. "Errors have been detected in the file 'file_path'. Quit all mail-enabled applications, and then use the Inbox Repair Tool." I tried to scan with scanpst.exe but it went in vain.I tried it with other applications it worked fine.But,the problem is they all are demo versions and I gets back only 5 to 6 mails for more mails i have to buy that applications. Do we have any free tool that can fix my problem or any other way to fix this.

I have been searching for some lost photos on my Toshiba satellite with windows 98. I ran a search and found the photos searching for *.jpg but the file it says they are in is the Temporary internet file and Temp folder. I know these folders save info from the web pages I've viewed so I'm trying to find out where those pics were viewed on. Does this make sense?

why do people say that they have deleted a file from their computer but if someone has enough knowledge or certain forensic software they can still retrieve this file that was supposably deleted. If they can retrieve it then it is not deleted. and when the file is supposably deleted but still in your computer is there a difference in the space that it takes in hidden areas of your computer. I would imagine that they would be compressed or something else.

I currently have a video on my disk in a folder (yes I needed to specify this ). My problem happens when I go into this folder: windows hangs, and when I hit CTRL + ALT + DEL I see drwtsn.exe running. When I close it down exporer just restarts. This problem happens with no other video file I have. I have tried: renaming the video and the folder (done quickly before windows freezes) aswell as placing the file on another partition (though I can't do this because windows hangs when I try to move it).
I have a 'clean' computer meaning it's always kept free of viruses, spyware, adaware and all my security programs are updated and executed regularly. This problem is pretty annoying as there are other files in this folder that I can't always access in time!

Windows XP - very new beginner. Went through the whole process of finding all of the bad stuff. I am supposed to delete this, the temp folder. When I typed in the directions, (C:WINNT emp) what came up looks very different from what I saw at first. I did a search for Temp or temp folders to see if it was another one. I got a long list in each. What do I delete?

Has anyone seen this file before,~DFEE9A.tmp.I'm trying to delete it out of my temp folder, because when i try to save a picture it will only save it as a BMP file. I can delete it in save mode, but when restart it comes back. I checked my startup folder and reg. but i don't see anything different in it.

Ok, this is the deal...I did the disk cleaner several times and it still wont delete the 40,764KB. I would be very happy if I only had 32KB but that is not my case.

After applying some recent Microsoft security updates my temp internet files
are not being deleted when I close the browser despite that option being
selected in the advanced options. the same thing happened when I updated the
wife's laptop at the same time. I have tried uninstalling the most recent
updates but to no avail.

I can not change the size of the Internet Temp File cache. The slide bar moves, but the size of the file remains the same. No matter what size I select, 10, 15, or 20mb, the error message "Set size to 1 or 0" appears. If I set the size to 1, I get the same error msg. This is causing no end of problems with my e-mail. It takes upwards of 45 seconds to open each e-mail. And in most cases I can not go to any ref'ed URL mentioned in an e-mail.

I am trialing drive encryption (TrueCrypt) and have created an encrypted D drive. I set my paging file to exist on the D drive so it is also encrypted and therefore safe and done the same with the temp directories.The problem is the screen goes all funny at boot time (splits into 4 sqiggly screens) and then comes up. It was unable to create the pagefile as there is not yet a d drive.
You have to use truecrypt to make the d drive by putting in the password, which makes sense since that's what keeps the data safe.The temp directories are used after the d drive becomes available but the pagefile.sys is not created or used that I can tell. This is a problem because either it means I have to keep the pagefile on the unencrypted C drive which is a security risk or I have to do without a pagefile entirely.

My computer has recently been freezing quite a bit. I have re-installed the op sys win2k prof. and it still does this. I have learned to live with the freezing not a big deal i just re-start often. Anyway today it really started acting up. I get to the login screen type in my password and it loads the desktop but before i can click on anything it gives me an error message saying that explorer has caused an error and will be closed and must be re-started, then it says generating error log. At this point i click ok and there is nothing on the desktop and there is no start bar. The only button combo that works is ctrl alt del. I have tried to boot into safe mode and it does the same thing. Today i had just finished installing new updates from microsoft and it froze right after doing this so i just had to do a hard re-start could this have screwed up the op sys??

I have an XPS 400 Dell computer XP Media Center Operating System. Recently my son added modzilla to our computer. In doing so he deleted internet explorer. The computer was running sluggish so I went back to a later restore date. When the computer came back up after restore only my husband and my profile were shown. while signing into my profile i get the following error message:
EXPLORER.EXE - Unable to locate component
This application has failed to start because
WININET.dll was not found. re-installing the app may fix the problem.
what do i do to get this back? There are no icons or start menue on my deskdop just my background. I can view files if i go to task manager but nothing else can be done. I know very little about computers and I need help very stressed. My kids need a computer for school.

I have just installed a new Seagate SATA 200GB hard drive (ST3200822AS) and partitioned and formatted it with Partition Magic 8.0 into 3 separate logical
partitions. The partitions have a cluster size of 8K and are under the NTFS 3.1 (Windows XP) file system.

Bold_Fortune stated it's safe to delete all KB .cat files; however, there's an error entry in the dberr.txt log for every one that I deleted.Do I need to reinstall the KB Hotfixes since I deleted their corresponding KB .cat files? Are KB .cat files important, or is this just Microsoft's XP complaining there's a problem that really isn't a problem?

When my Norton Internet Security 2005 runs a disk drive scan it locates a file it identified as Spyware in the Windows Directory. The file name is symentra .exe. I've currently blocked access to the Internet for this file but when it tries to access it just keeps trying relentlessly. Does anyone know if I need this file or is there a way to delete it?

I am running Win XP with SP3. My start-up is slow and I have run virus and spyware tests so decided to download Event Log Explorer to see if it would identify the problem. Have just run it for the first time and it found loads of Errors and warnings. Sadly I have no idea what they mean. They refer to programmes I have never heard of and can't find on my computer.

I would like to see if all data files in my computer are still healthy, i.e. they haven't been damaged or corrupt yet. Manually opening one by one is not an option. There are literally millions of files. I knew the System File Checker but it is only for Windows system files. I want to check the health of all my data files. Disk checking, as far as I know, has nothing to do with file corruption. The drive can be healthy even if some files have been corrupt unrelated to drive failure reasons.I tried to search on the net but couldn't find any.

I had BIG problems with a printer/scanner all-in-one and have decided to remove any programs associated with it (HP C4180 Photosmart All-in-One). I even at one point took the printer/scanner and my laptop back to Staples to see if they could load the Printer/Scanner and they indicated that there was nothing wrong with my drivers and want me to bring it in today to do a diagnostic check (Darn, $40.00 and that is just to see what the problem is) then whatever it costs to fix it. At that time they also advised me that my system was running quite slow. I thought I had removed everything associated with HP and now I noticed that I have all these files under "Temp Files" on my system. I did a Disc Clean-up, making sure that "Temp Files was checked but they don't seem to want to be removed. Attached is a copy of what is on my system. Maybe you know of a fix to remove anything associated with HP??....

Running Disk Cleanup, when this Windows File Protection comes up saying a system file has been replaced with a unrecognized one. It wants me to put in my Operating System CD, but I don't have one. I bought this computer and the required files are already on the computer. So what should I do?

When double clicking the actual file, Windows reports "windows cannot find file ... <file name.exe>"
This is only SOME exe's. Particularly, older programs. Word, excel, WordPerfect all work. Older apps don't.
I've tried the exe fixes on dougknox.com site and kelly's corner XP fix.

Whenever I point to some files in Windows Explorer or similar program a yellow "sticky note" displays with either the filename or occasionally a summary of the details of the file such as Date Modified, Size etc. I find it really annoying since it covers up an area such as other files etc.I have tried "Disable Notification Area Balloon Tips in Windows XP" and "EnableBalloonTips" registry entry is already set to '0' plus I even recreated and still no go...still appears. Does not appear on every file but once in a while it will happen/
