  1. Well what else do you expect from Microsoft?
  2. It's a corrupt file apparently. I have a few files like that on my system. Can't delete it no matter how low-level I get. I even went into DOS and WinPE to try and delete it. With no open handles, I still don't see how a file could block any delete attempts, so I just passed it off as corrupt.
  3. Heard he's fervently working on an update behind-the-scenes .
  4. Single-threaded programs (not sure if Everest is one) can't utilize both cores at once so Task Manager will either show one core being heavily taxed or 50% of both cores being used. So yes, quite normal unless Everest is multithreaded.
  5. Lol umm that's exactly what I posted.
  6. License files are stored in "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe Systems\Product licenses". To reset your settings, press Ctrl-Alt-Shift during the load screen. I think your problem might be because you've set your documents to something other than RGB or that you might have 8-bits of color only.
  7. I think you're missing quotation marks. Shouldn't it be call "x:\\xxxxx\xxxxxx\xxxxxx\xxxxxxx\AdobeUpdates\accrobat 7.0 pro install.bat"?
  8. @echo off set /a %time:~3,2%+30 > tempfile for /f %%i in (tempfile) do set closetime=%%i start calc.exe :loop if %time:~3,2%==%closetime% taskkill /f /im calc.exe goto loop There's a bug in the loop code somewhere. Once when you can actually find it (I couldn't ) and fix it, this batch file should close calc.exe after running for 30 minutes.
  9. I modified it a bit: ECHO Do you want to install Program? ECHO (Password required) ECHO. ECHO 1. Install Program ECHO. ECHO 2. Skip installation ECHO. ECHO. SET /P NewVar= Please choose a menu option (1 or 2) IF NewVar == 2 GOTO END IF NewVar == 1 GOTO INSTALL :INSTALL "%cddrive%\Programs\program.exe" :END
  10. Umm...mandrake you might wanna remove your PID.
  11. Yes, I've found uuidgen.exe already. It outputs a single GUID without the brackets, so I redirected its output to a temporary file: @echo off :loop uuidgen.exe > temp.dat for /f %%i in (temp.dat) do set tempuuid=%%i goto loop That generates an infinite amount of GUID's for my use. My next step was to then call another batch file and do a "for" loop to rename all *.txt files to %tempguid%. That's when I first found out that "environmental variables" apply only to a single cmd.exe session. Any help is appreciated.
  12. Lol I think I found a bug in Opera. While downloading the file, I renamed the extension. Then when it did finish downloading, I created a batch file: @echo off :loop ren How_to_delete_one_of_these_items.doc How_to_delete_one_of_these_items.png ren How_to_delete_one_of_these_items.png How_to_delete_one_of_these_items.doc goto loop And the "Download Finished" popup will appear, disappear, appear, etc. Then if you check the "Transfers" tab, the download status will switch between stopped and done.
  13. I would like to rename a few thousand text files through batch to a randomly-generated GUID filename. Does anyone know how to do this? I'm thinking it might be possible by using a third-party command-line GUID generator and setting a variable to the program's output, then creating a FOR loop.
  14. Even if it could, x64 kernel has a built-in integrity check to prevent any modifications to the kernel. Vista will have this as well, so you can't just hack the kernel. On the otherhand, there is a switch for boot.ini to load a bootscreen from a BMP file.
  15. Google Suggest is racist though. Type in "[Race] are" and see what it suggests.
  16. Server 2003 is a workstation OS as well. If you want the benefits of Server 2003, without the cost, get XP x64, which is built on the Server 2003 base.

    Vista

    Did a comparison with Vista and XP on an earlier build...500 points less in PCMark05 with Vista.
  18. What do you mean by code? Unless you have your password saved, there's really nothing you can do without your original email.
  19. Furthermore, not only did they develop the Microsoft defragging tool, but they codeveloped (with Microsoft) the defragging API within Windows itself. All other defragging tools (PD included) use that very API.
  20. Yes, it's called purchasing a subscription.
