I have a 3kb file that I want to move from one folder to another folder. Only when I control+x it and move to the new folder and control+v the file, a dialogue window pops up with "Compressing . . ." I can't read the rest of the line. It keeps that file locked into this dialogue for quite...

Thank guitarzan for your quick reply. I will inform him he is incorrect. No more replies are necessary.

Hi all, Just a quick query on something I'm not sure would be beneficial to my pcs. I got a letter from a friend and in it he states ". . . get to "msconfig", and once up click on 'boot' tab. On that window move your cursor to the upper left [to where it says] 'processors 1'. Then he says if...

Ok all. Seems to have worked so no more help is needed. Didn't find anything that msconfig saw as a problem. I think I will defrag and clean off old files etc.. Thanks again. Kudos to you all.

Thanks dpaul. C# is rather complex and since I haven't done programming in a long time it will take me a bit to absorb all of what I've learned so far. C# 2010 seems to work on my win 8.1 but I'm wondering if a newer version would work better, if at all. Also, the demo code I was running that...

Ok great! I'll try the msconfig and see which is running. I also checked the windows search and in the list that ran in troubleshooter said it wasn't running so I am assuming it is disabled. Thanks again all. Kudos . . .

I just changed the dump setting to "automatic memory dump." And previous post has a copy of my Disk Cleaner shot of the two dump files, 500MB in size each, which disk cleaner said when removed would get back 1.17GB hdd space. There is already 55.3GB hdd space remaining. I haven't tried to run...

OK, I'm here and am going to upload my captured file. Plus, to let you know I still have 55.3GB hdd space remaining. I'm on my laptop so when I'm done uploading the file etc., then I will check out the other tips to try. Again thanks to all for your helps so...

Hi all. I'm a baby newby to C#. I downloaded C# express 2010 and installed on my laptop with windows 8.1. I tried a demo code from a book cd but it won't run. Keeps giving me errors, and sorry, I didn't write it down. I'd like to know which version I should get and use in 8.1? Any help will be...

Hi all. Back again with the same problem. I made a screen shot showing both files in "Disk Cleaner" but don't know if I can attach it to any reply. If I can will you let me know how? Plus another that just popped up as I was typing this. It was a pop up notifying me of "High Disk Usage" so I...

Hi all again. I went through all of the steps and found: Debug was not enabled svchost.exe was the largest memory user at 106,452 I ran Disk Clean again and this time I did the "System Cleanup" and the regular Disk Cleanup. So far I don't know of any more issues but it has only been a few...

Thank all for your replies. I haven't had any pc crashes AND the files in the Disk Cleaner do slow down my pc. Just thought you might want to know that info. I will try all of the above and check all you've mentioned linney. If anything else happens that is strange I will re-post, so until...

Hi all. I recently get this two files showing up in the "Disk Cleanup": Debug dump file and system error memory dump file. Both are 500MB and they slow my machine down terribly. Is there a way I can get those files to stop logging anything into them? Or can I change the size allowed to the log...

Thanks RyanSW for your reply. I would send you my entire program but the software deleted all my lines when I opened it up. I only had 3 lines left to fix too. I dropped the class. Maybe next winter I'll take it again. Maybe by then the bugs in the program will be fixed. Thanks again for your...

Hi all. I hope someone is there who can explain a couple of things to me in C#. I keep getting "identifier expected" errors and don't know what that means. can someone show me an example line so I can see what it is I'm doing wrong? Also, I get "; expected" errors. But there is a ";" at the...
