"Could not find this item"? by

Hi,
I'm trying to copy photos from the public pictures folder to a memory

I can view the photos (Explorer, Windows Photo Gallery) and I can
transfer them to other folders on the PC but when I try to copy them
across I get the following message: "Could not find this item. This item
is no longer located in C:\Users\Public\PublicPictures\Photos. Verify
the item's location and try again." When...

No this computer does not update visa WSUS. Used WUA API to actually

For example, I installed KB937287. Went to

Locked Out Of Folders by
John Reid
I went in to check my music in my Vista Music folder but I found a new MY
MUSIC Folder. There was a new icon
beside it, a musical note, but it would not let me in to view the files. It
returned a message
saying that "it was not accessible: Access Denied." I then noticed that two
other folders had new icons beside them, MY PICTURES and MY VIDEOS. Further
down was another folder MY DOCUMENTS. I...

Windows Explorer Copying Files by
JonK
When I use the right mouse button to drag a file from a folder in the right
pane to another folder in the navigation pane I see a + symbol in front of
"copy" now in Vista's Windows Explorer. Once I have settled the cursor over
the destination folder this will pop up. Is there a key that can be pressed
when this shows to confirm the file copy? Is this meant to make file copying
more accurate...

How are folders named in Windows Vista by
Michael Garczynski
I have redirected several of my folders in Vista as I have previously in XP
so I didn't have to change my document locations. However, many of the
references so the folder as My Documents while the Vista folder is just
called Documents. I am not able to change the location of these folders

Searching all files in a folder for a string. by
Just Askin
I keep some customer documents, Excel and Word files, in a folder. The folder
is on a network share.
Periodically I need to search these documents for the presence of a string
of text. This is simply, quickly and intuitively done in XP.
How do I do this in Vista?

I managed to make a mess out of my "neatly" organized folders.
Not sure what I did, but now Music folder contain the whole content of
Documents folder. The catch is that if I erase or copy something to
Music folder same thing happens to Documents folder. It looks like Music

bat-files suddenly associated w. MS WORD - how to get back to normal? by
CFScheel
I use a few .bat files to do simple chores, such as copying newly changed
files to a backup folder.
Suddenly these bat-files associate with MS WORD and open there instead of
doing their batch work.
I suspect that maybe some recent Vista updates (they come in droves) are
responsible for this mess.
How do I get back to normal?

Move icon from everyone's desktop to one user's by
It Is Me Here
Some programs automatically install themselves so that every user gets a
shortcut to the program on their desktop, and deleting the shortcut by one
user gets rid of it for everyone.
How can such shortcuts be moved from everyone's desktop to just one user's?
