I want to Sort or Group a folder containing *.AVI files by the date the movie clips were taken. I've tried to sort/group by all the date options - and either they don't work or no information shows up in the column. I've Googled and it seems that other people are having the same problem.

Hi all, I have an application that uses one configuration file which should be the same for all users.

Hi! I have a big problem with a PC in our company.

I guess during...

Hi All, I'm running Vista Ultimate 64-bit with Service Pack 2. I want to do a CompletePc Backup (image of C drive) and save it on my external hard drive. Previously, I have saved several image backups to my second internal hard drive, but don't have enough space to do another backup. But when Vista searches for a location for the backup, it only allows me to use the second internal hard...

I've changed the folder icon of several folders. When I move them onto a data CD they remain as I changed them. But when I open the CD on another computer they revert to the old yellow default folder. How do I get them to keep the changes? On another forum I was told to place that icon file into that particular folder (no problem) and to create a "desktop.ini file" and make it a system file...

If there is a Windows 7 newsgroup, I cannot find it. In one of my directories is a file that cannot be deleted. It is zero bytes big, and when I try to delete it, Windows 7 (Home Premium x64) tells me that it cannot because it's not found. The error dialog is titled "Item not found" and the error message is: Could not find this item This is no longer located in {name of directory}. Verify...

Sorry to post a Windows 7 question in a Vista group, but I assume the issues and answers apply to both. Also, am I missing something, or is there no Windows 7 set of groups here? 1. I've Googled and searched various online forums, and I read Microsoft's page on advanced search syntax and can't seem to find the answer no matter how I frame my question: Is there a "NOT" filter in Windows 7...

I just moved from XP to Win 7. I was in the process of transferring custom.dic when I realized that the AppData folder did not appear under my user name, but that's where I need to put the custom dictionary file. My question is how to make all the folders appear in Win 7 so I can work with folders, as I did in XP. I suspect there is a configuration option, but I so far have not located it...
