"What does this mean :- "it is most definitely picked up through file =

Hi Glen, and PCR and all

This forum is the answer to ALL my prob's, with everything else in life,
help with fixing the car, jobs on the house etc,etc, no one actually whets
to help you, they just want to find out how much money they can take of you.

Quite often your reply's don't so much answer my questions, more like create
a hundred more for me to find the answer to.

Also, some of the time, 50% at a guess, I don't have a clue what you're on
about and end up with just another headache.

But that said, the situation is perfect, I am learning fast (it's a very
steep learning curve), and have already fixed many of the problems that most
PC owners have to pay a lot of money to have fixed.

Thanks to all of you.

NOW, my next question

Although I have read all of the posts on how to clearout incd files
"manually", I have used the link to incd "clear-out" and now when I start
find "incd" it has ALL gone. MAGIC!!!

Now, before I load incd, with ref to "are you sure you want INCD
anyway", what choice have I got??

Secondly, there is tenp and windows temp and maybe other temps, just to
check (as we covered some of this in another thread), can I delete from Temp
folders at will, whenever I want (realising it's best to do this after
bootup)

Whilst on this subject, I have "profiles" on this machine and each contain
cookies that don't seem to get emptied (don't think they ever have), will I
lose anything if I delete all of these and why are they there in the first
place.

Simple answers please

Pooh of very little brain, alias Steve

I suggest you download the version of InCD you want, from the Ahead Nero

web site,
rather than installing from the CD, as the web installer is a bit simpler

than the
Windows Installer used on the CD, and I find I have less problems with it.

Before you install, follow this procedu
Reboot.
Open the Temp folder and delete all Temp files:
-Click StartRun, type %temp% and click OK.

You are welcome. Glad Haggis's URL had the answer.

from Temp
| folders at will, whenever I want (realising it's best to do this after

I have heard of "C:\TEMP", but never saw one. The following is what I
post for "C:\Windows\TEMP". To know which TEMP is your system TEMP...

(a) "START button, RUN"
(b) Type %TEMP% (with the percent marks), & hit ENTER.
(c) What folder is named in the Address Bar?

If it is "C:\Windows\TEMP", then...

Delete the contents of C:\Windows\TEMP. Delete contents only.

Under normal circumstances, C:\WINDOWS\TEMP can be cleared of
files/folders after a fresh boot. You need the fresh boot, because
something may be sitting there, waiting to "complete" an install. You
will likely have seen a message about it, though. Anyway, you should
know whether you've installed something since boot. Now, some files may
return after the delete. "WebPoolFileFile" is one. That will come back
next boot or when you run McAfee.

I have seen one poster who objected, saying one should browse through
those files, looking for .log's. He said it might be interesting to see
whether there is an error message or something inside. It was too late
for me by then.

Naturally, if you have actually installed something into TEMP, there
might be a Registry connection to it. Those, you need to un/re-install
elsewhere. Finally, I even saw a poster who had system files in there,
perhaps it was the Temporary Internet Files in there. That shouldn't be!
Well, to be certain, is C:\Windows\TEMP mentioned in any of these
Registry keys?

It would be less formal if you had a first name, me thinks

O.K right or wrong I've emptied C\windows\temp as that was what run
produced, but if it's wrong I guess they are still in the bin.

I got several warnings to say some were read only thingy's or programs and
last folders entitled TIF's,
History and cookies all with NO kb's (empty I assume) Is this normal?? I
saved any that I got a warning about!!! There are 17 objects saved

There are some exe files should I get these checked out???

What about the other temp folders in "profiles"

c:\temp is where zip files go by default (from there they go to "unzipped
unless I choose elsewhere

You see "one answer one hundred questions"

Cheers Steve with a headache.

Hi Glen, and PCR and all


Hi


This forum is the answer to ALL my prob's, with everything else in life,
help with fixing the car, jobs on the house etc,etc, no one actually whets
to help you, they just want to find out how much money they can take of you.


What kind of car problems are you having?


Quite often your reply's don't so much answer my questions, more like create
a hundred more for me to find the answer to.

Also, some of the time, 50% at a guess, I don't have a clue what you're on
about and end up with just another headache.

But that said, the situation is perfect, I am learning fast (it's a very
steep learning curve), and have already fixed many of the problems that most
PC owners have to pay a lot of money to have fixed.


It takes a while to absorb this stuff, and the more you learn, the more you find out
you don't know. We are all in that boat....


Thanks to all of you.


YW


NOW, my next question

Although I have read all of the posts on how to clearout incd files
"manually", I have used the link to incd "clear-out" and now when I start
find "incd" it has ALL gone. MAGIC!!!

Now, before I load incd, with ref to "are you sure you want INCD
anyway", what choice have I got??


Well, one choice is to *not* install InCD and just install Nero...they are two
different programs, and the installer should give you the option of what you want to
install, at least if you choose a Custom Install. Do you use InCD? It is a "packet
writing" app, that allows you to use CD-RW discs like a big floppy, copying files to
it on the fly from Windows Explorer. The drawback is that the packet writing format
is not as reliable as the "CD mastering" method used by Nero when you burn a data
CD. Also, many CD-ROM drives can't handle reading the discs when they are written
by packet writing software. In fact, even some computers with packet writing
software will have trouble reading a CD-RW written on another computer, especially
if a different packet writing software was used (or even the same software but an
earlier or later version). So, it has some limited usefulness. Still, some people
like it, and it is handy some of the time.

Have you used CD writing software before? Ahead makes Nero CD mastering software,
and InCD packet writing software. Roxio makes Easy CD Creator mastering software
and DirectCD packet writing software. There are a few other brands available also.

The info here may help you....or, give you a headache:
http://www.cdrfaq.org/


Secondly, there is tenp and windows temp and maybe other temps, just to
check (as we covered some of this in another thread), can I delete from Temp
folders at will, whenever I want (realising it's best to do this after
bootup)


Reboot, then open your system's temp folder this way, and delete the files:
-Click StartRun, type %temp% and click OK.
-Press Ctrl+A to select all, then press Delete.

To Delete the Temporary Internet Files:
Click Start Settings Control Panel Internet Options General tab.
Click the Delete Files button, then put a checkmark in the box to Delete all
offline content, and click OK, and OK.

Exactly what other Temp folders do you see on your computer, and what is in them?


Whilst on this subject, I have "profiles" on this machine and each contain
cookies that don't seem to get emptied (don't think they ever have), will I
lose anything if I delete all of these and why are they there in the first
place.


Do you use profiles on the computer...that is, does more than one user log on using
a different log-on name and password than you do?


Simple answers please


I tried to keep the words small.....

Hi,

Thanks, the incd cleaning tool cleared out the lot, before I load the new
incd:-

With ref to "are you sure you want INCD anyway", what choice have I
got??

the CD but it does not put an icon on thedesktop, and the little icon at

the
bottom right of the screen, (is that thesystray) does not open it either

,
I
read somewhere that it will not load properly if there is an older

version
on the machine - so I did a "fit/proper" uninstall on incd and nero, but

it
still will not load. Done another uninstall and then a "find"on "ahead",

and
it listed about 10/15 lines of ahead related "thingy's" dated several

years
ago, there was one or two that probably wasn't ahead incd. If I am

careful,
can I "delete" these remaining files and folders in the folders they are

in
on the c/drive as I do not believe this older version is in add/remove
programs, (have checked three million times).
Start find shows "ahead related files in :- c\windows,

c\windows\applog,
c\windows\recent, c\windows\profiles.........app'n data, c\program

files,
c\program files\common files, c\program files\ahead.

Thats all I can think of for now many thanks. Steve

If all seems well after 3 weeks, 7 days & 168 hours, then empty the bin.

I

TIF's? I had a set there once, too. It should be fine to delete them
there. Well, what shows at... "Control Panel, Internet Options, Settings
button"

Where does it say Temporary Internet Files are located? If it doesn't
say "C:\Windows\Temp", you are fine.

|
| There are some exe files should I get these checked out???

I guess just run a virus scan on them. However, if they were an
infection, I'm sure you'd know by now. Usually, they don't go gently
into the Bin.

|
| What about the other temp folders in "profiles"

I leave that to Glee. I don't want to go mad!

|
| c:\temp is where zip files go by default (from there they go to
"unzipped
| unless I choose elsewhere

It looks like your ZIP app is using that folder.
