Apr 14, 2005I'm played with the folder options over and over and for some reason ever though I have clicked open folder in same window and "launch folder window in a separate process" is NOT clicked, for some reason when I double click to open a folder it still opens it with a new window. Also, under file types it won't let me edit or remove the commands for folder, drive, and file folder.

Oct 10, 2006i went to tools---->folder options----->file types----->[NONE]file folder------advanced
i then bolded "enqueue in winamp" and clicked "set default" then clicked ok.
every file folder i click on, the default action is enqueue in winamp.i was having a problem with my right click context menu and winamp wasnt an option(i uninstalled winamp,reinstalled,went into options,everything to no avail).SO i thought this may do the trick in adding it to my right click options.
How i can change this back to the default norm of clicking on the file folder and entering to see its contents
All File And Folder Names Are Gone
Nov 10, 2008Like I said in the title. In one of my folders, (and only that particular one), all file and folder names are missing. I don't know if it's a design feature or a bug, but I really want those names back. Can it be caused by malware?

Mar 12, 2005I've got this problem. It's a little problem, but quite annoying. It's only present on one of my 3 PC's. The problem exists on a new Toshiba laptop that I recently bought.It's XP home, and I put SP2 on it. Here's a description of the problem: Let's say that I've got an IE website open, and I want to delete a file. I right click on the file, and then click delete, and everything's fine. I get the little window that says "do you want to delete this file", and, as I move my pointer to click OK, as soon as the pointer gets into the desktop area, the delete window disappears. In order to keep it "on top", I've gotta close out or minimize the IE window. It's the same no matter what file or folder I open. As soon as the pointer enters the desktop, the file or folder disappears. It won't stay "on top". I've tried to find a way to keep the current file/folder "on top", but haven't found one.

Nov 5, 2006Recently I had some problems with my OS in that when I re-booted I began getting the disk check utility running and it found bad clusters in my hard drive. My hard drive is partitioned into a C drive with only the OS and programs on it and a D drive with all my files saved there. The scandisk found bad clusters in both partitions. When I chose the automatically repair option I thought my problems would be fixed. Instead what happened was that it took a folder which had about 200 mp3's in it and converted it into a file with no file extension. So it isn't even recongnized by my OS.
Set Owner And Permission For A Folder/file On?
Sep 6, 2005First, I still have problem to set a folder to be private. It should be a VERY EAY task.But when I right click the Property of a folder on D: drive its "Make this private" check box is gray out.So I can NOT make a folder be private in D: drive.
It seem to me the private folders are private under "My Documents" in C: drive.
I read from Help, it says a drive MUST be NTFS
But I type
convert D: /fs:ntfs
It says my D drive already is NTFS format.
Since it already in NTFS, then why I can't
make it private?

View 6 Replies View RelatedFile Folder Whopping 67.7 GB - Out Of Space
Sep 23, 2009I run Windows XP Professional. I have an 80 GB hard drive with only 3.04 GB of free space. That's 4% of free space, and Disk Defragmenter requires at least 15% to run effectively. Needless to say, when I try to run that utility I don't get much bang for the buck. The Windows file on the hard drive consumes a whopping, eye-popping 67.7 GB (size on disk: 62.3 GB) and contains 32,209 files in 1,807 folders. I've tried to clean up the temporary files. I've run the system's "Disk Cleanup" utility, including all hidden files and folder in the search, until I'm blue in the face.
I've deleted so much stuff, I hope I haven't deleted anything important. Beyond that, I don't know what to do. I recently purchased and installed an additional hard drive for storage purposes, but all of the system programs run off of the one that is nearly out of space and I get frequent computer prompts about low space. What can I do? The 80GB drive badly needs defragmenting -- we're talking so much red that it looks like the Communist flag -- yet I cannot do anything about it. How can I retake this drive from whatever there is in Windows that has just about totally claimed it?

Nov 16, 2007When moving files on the same drive or from one to another:

This is fairly common (once or twice a month) and it occurs usually with folders containing many subfolders when being moved by explorer gui "Move the selected items", or ctrl-x, ctrl-v . Repeated attempts through the same process seems to move the folders, but the errors increase as the concentration of stubborn folders increases.
