Storage Misc

Good day to all,

I need some experts to help me on this. I just bought this new flash drive and it's working fine for the first week. Then I tried to copy some stuff from the flash drive to my computer. But when I tried, it kept saying “Write Protect Error”. How can I fix this thing?

When I plugged my USB flash/Pen drive into my computer supposedly it will open automatically, but in my case I need to browse it manually to “My Computer” to be able to open its content. I don’t know how this happens.

I think it’s because of AVG but I’m not sure of it.

How can I enable again the auto play of removable media?

I am using Windows XP.

I have two issues with some files. I want to delete a file, but whenever I try to delete it, the computer response is “the file cannot be deleted because it is being used by another program”. I have no other running program, that is why I am confused which program is preventing me from removing/deleting the file.

Second issue is that I have a file that after I delete and exit the folder which contains the same file, if I go back to the folder, it is still there. I will again delete it, but it doesn’t go away. The file has no use for me because it contains no data.

Hi,

I have a pen drive of my friend. He asked me to copy all the files inside his pen drive. When I open it, I see a background image in the pen drive. It was like a desktop having a wall paper. I was thinking to put a picture in my pen drive also but I cannot find anything on the web that works. Is it also possible to change the text color of files in pen drive?

Thanks.

Hello,

Seeking to secure my computer data, I plugged my Mac Mini in the local network to perform an automatic backup Time Machine to all of my Mac and PC and i am confused.

Apple's website states that automatically Time Machine backups of all existing Mac on the network. Is it possible to circumvent this limit?

Thank you!

Hi all,

I have an Imation USB with 495 MB capacity.  I know that the USB does not have any files inside it, but when I checked the properties it shows that, it is not.

I thought that maybe there are hidden files on the drive. So what I did was, to show the hidden files by going to folder options and changing the view settings to show all hidden files, drives and folders.  But I did not find anything hidden.

I also tried emptying the recycle bin from my desktop. It didn't work either. My last resort was to reformat the USB. After the reformat, I thought it will fix the problem, but it didn't.

Hi,

I am having error of low disk space on my computer. I then tried to delete unnecessary file from a computer, but I am very astonished to look at this error given to me by my computer who was complaining of low disk space already.

When I try to delete file it says:

cannot delete error

Error Deleting File

Cannot delete DOCPROP: There is not enough free disk space

Delete one or more file to free disk space, and then try again.

Now I cannot  understand why it requires free space to delete a file. If I have space, why should I delete the file?

Hi,

If  I image my hard drive (C: partition), would the other computers see all the programs installed or do I need to reinstall everything?

I' m just a newbie anyway. I'm very sorry,  I just bought my new computer.
