Backup to Internal Drive by
Davido696
I have Vista Ultimate and would like to backup all files to the second
internal drive. Vista's backup program does not recognize drive D as
approreat for backup. There are a few files on D some of which I can't
delete because system reports too large. I cannot format the drive but can

disk for backup? I have a...

Files missing after a restore-related crash by
DavisJ3608
When I logged on to my computer this morning, my desktop was black, I wasn't
able to change it to a picture, all my desktop icons were missing, and my
Windows theme was changed from Basic to Aero. I decided that my computer had
probably auto-restored to an ancient restore point for some reason, and
figured I might as well add all my desktop icons back to their places. I
found the file...

Recovery Drive Help! by
daysgoby
Sorry the title is in all caps, obnoxious but I'm in kind of a tiffy.
I'm really annoyed at having extra folders lying around so I delete
them. To be specific, the favorites folder under the C drive. It annoys
me to NO END that it's there and that I can never completely get rid of
it.
So I was playing around with it and I decided to move it to the
Recovery (D:\) drive. REALLY REALLY BAD IDEA....

Search doesn't work in hidden system folders? by
DB
If I make a folder +h +s, the search function no longer does anything when I
browse into that folder and type something in the search bar. It doesn't say
there are no results, it just does nothing. Not even in advanced search. Is
this a bug? Is there a way around this? I hope someone can help me with this.
Thanks in advance!

Printing the results of a Windows search (XPPro) by
DBenedict
We are reorganizing our company's shared drive and I have to move files into
this new structure. Before I move things, I'd like to know where everything
was.
I can run a normal Windows search that shows everything I've got. (files,
folders, subfolders). Is there a way to get a print out of this list
including file size, location, etc? Saved search does me no good.
Everything will be...

File associations by
DBYurtoy
Two related issues:
If I select any program except Photo Gallery to be the default program for
JPGs, the option to OPEN WITH is no longer available if I select more than 1
file.
Second, if I select 16 JPG files to open in my program, the default Explorer
action becomes PRINT rather than OPEN. At 15 JPGs, the default remains OPEN.
How do I fix these problems?

Indexing Volumes Mounted in empty NTFS folders. by
deadonthefloor
In order to clean up the mess I had in windows media center, I removed the
drive letters from my media drives, and mounted them in empty NTFS folders

However, When I check my "Indexed Locations" in indexing options, I do not
see these folders when I drill down through the 'Users\Public\Public Videos"
folder. I have a folder named "Television (A-M)" That...
