I have files on my Win 2k machine that I Exported Registry. With my new XP machine, I would like to import them. How does the Registry know where to put them (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, HKEY_USERS, etc.)?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI currently have Outlook 2000 and have purchased a new PC and will be installing Office XP. What are they ways to export the emails (including the ones in my personalized folders) to the new PC. When I export I loose the dates and attachments, which is logical as a windows comma file can not support attachment.On the subject are there any friendly ways or archiving email, preferably in the folders I have created, I know Outlook has an archive but could never work out how to open them again.
The registry on one of my computers is corrupt and if I try to copy the files from the WindowsRepair folder using the windows system repair tool, I'm told the files cannot be found. One possible solution I thought of is using the registry files from my other computer running Windows XP. I don't even know if this is possible, but if it is, how can I transfer the files. I would put them on a CD but the CD drive won't open when the system repair tool is running, and they're too big to fit on a floppy disk, even one at a time (the system and software files are both over 2mb.)

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have several e-mail accounts set up in Outlook on my desktop that I want to port over to a new laptop. It will save me the trouble of having to re-create them all over again on the laptop, plus I'm not sure I can remember all the passwords. On the MS website I've searched for "export email accounts" and several variations on that but have come up with nothing. The only thing I can find is how to import the accounts from Outlook Express into Outlook, which is not what I'm looking for.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've done a search on my drive to locate all the Power Point files and came up with 1712 results. I need to export these results to a user friendly format (preferably xls) so that I have the name of the file, the location, the size and the date modified. How do I go about doing this? I am also interested in creating a tree diagram that will show the entire structure of my drive, i.e. think something like the explore's bar view folders option with expand all. MS DOS PROMP will give you such an option but it's not really user friendly.

Since January my computer started getting error messages about corrupted files, corrupted registry, and drivers stopped working. I tried different things and ended up formatting my hard drive and reinstalling Windows. Things were fine for a while, but after a week I started getting messages about corrupt files again, having issues with drivers, and now Windows won't shut down properly. Also, the computer powers off of its own accord sometimes. I'm using Windows XP Home Edition SP3. I haven't made any hardware updates recently.
Some of the error messages I've been receiving are. For Bluesoleil (which I have uninstalled and reinstalled) it says that the file is corrupt and to try an anti-virus scan (I tried to copy the message, but the window went off on its own). AVG anti-virus keeps on saying there are no active components, or replacing all the commands with things beginning with @. The drivers for my Logitech Fusion webcam stopped working, but I've reinstalled them, and they work, for now. The Microsoft Kernel Wave Audio Mixer kept on corrupting. I've also had the message 'Windows - Registry Recovery One of the files containing the system's Registry data had to be recovered by use of a log or alternative copy.
I just ran my 3B Registry Repair Pro and it scanned the last couple thousand files 8 or 9 times...usually it scans somewhere around 30000 files (just a guess, takes about 13 minutes), this time it scanned like 60000 files and took 35 minutes. I was trying to update my ActiveSync, but it wouldn't finish. Then the computer wouldnt shut down. I ran Norton One Button Scan on a restart, and it didnt find anything. Im super nervous about viruses and spy/ ad ware, so ive got and use all the stuff everyone here says to use. im stumped.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI was running CyberScrub the other day, which is a program that cleans out internet cache and deletes files beyond recovery. After it was done with the procedure, the computer restarted and chdisk began to run before my Windows XP booted up. After Windows was done doing chdisk, it started doing some wierd stuff I've never seen before.It was scrolling down with the same line but with the number increasing into the thousands. I thought maybe it was just doing a routine check but when I when my desktop came up I started to notice all kinds of wierd errors now. Here are just some examples: My taskbar disappeared and there's no way to conventionally fix it (Start doesn't come up when I press the windows key on my keyboard). My soundcard is undetectable.
