AND IN THE MSN ONE, IT SAYS EVERYTHING I'VE EVER DONE ON MSN IN THIS WEIRD CODE.
It's really scary. I'm just a little kid and I really need some help.
Thanks.
Reply:go into the recycle bin itself and click on the msn.log and click resore restore it to your desktop. then try scanning it with like avg or something like that then fix the virus that way u wont have to delete it.
Reply:most virus' tend to not just allow you to delete them. Try and antivirus program or a spyware program to remove the file.
Reply:Try scanning your entire computer for viruses.
First off, make sure your anti-virus program is updated before scanning it.
You might wanna do a spyware scan too.
Reply:boot into safe mode and delete it from there. also run an anti-virus to be sure that the virus is gone.
Reply:This maybe a system file on your computor, if so it will not allow you to delete it.....

Use Windows XP's System Restore.
To access, go to:
Start %26gt; All Programs %26gt; Accessories %26gt; System Tools %26gt; System Restore.
Then choose a restore point.
Also, the Recycle Bin is an option.

Lost p.c information( please help )?
My Daughter did 'something' to the computer,Now i have had to go to p.c recovery. and everything on my P.C had been deleted and i tried to system restore. But it will not go back to yesterday Only today. However do i get it back to where it was or get my files back ? all pictures and info is gone,its back to factor settings..
Lost p.c information( please help )?
Well, if you're running XP and you did an entire System Recovery (using the disks that came with the computer or in a different partition on your hard drive), you've wiped out your computer so it's just like the day you bought it. If you already tried System Restore and the most recent 'save' is showing today, there isn't any previous day to go to, so your files probably are lost. I know there's a way that people can get ANYTHING off a hard drive, even when wiped clean, but that's for the police techies, not us mortals.

Creating Files In C++?
Hello, I am wondering in most they have their own file types (such as .sav for a game save and .esm for a Elder Scrolls file) Just wondering how do they create, acess and delete them using C++? Can anyone give me an explaination, point me towards a tutorial or tell me a book i could get with this in it.

Creating Files In C++?
To read or write text files in C++, you usually use stream objects of the standard classes "ifstream" and "ofstream." Those classes also have open and close functions and the appropriate overloaded stream operators. There is nothing really special about the different types of file name extensions, although it helps to choose a unique one that means something in the context (like an abbreviation). To read or write binary data in C++ (for example, from data structures), there are other functions you can use called "read" and "write." They take character buffers as their arguments, but you can cast any buffer to a buffer of characters so that doesn't matter. This appears to be a good place for you to start learning about it: http://www.angelfire.com/country/aldev0/...
This is another tutorial-like reference related to the subject:
http://www.developer.com/net/cplus/artic...
Another handy reference (but not a tutorial) is http://www.cppreference.com/
There's nothing particularly special about writing to files per se. The main difference between writing to files and to the console is that you have to decide on a good format for your files if you intend to read them later on. Good luck!
Reply:These are input output operations that are available in every language.
I would rather advise you to move with C# than C++ if your developing for the windows environment.
Reply:If you've ever tried opening a data file (such as a saved game file) in notepad you've probably noticed that it just looks like a bunch of gibberish. That's because when you open a file in Notepad, it has certain assumptions that it makes about the file that aren't true.
Almost all text files are encoded with 7-bit data, since 7 bits can sufficiently hold all the letters, numbers, punctuation and control characters you need.
Data files are almost always encoded in 8-bit data. So when notepad starts reading it, it looks like gibberish.
Files in C++ are handled almost exactly like input/output from the keyboard and to the screen. Except instead of using the devices, it uses file streams.
To open a file steam, you se the fstream.open() function. The parameters that you pass that function determine whether you will be reading to it, writing to it, or both.
From there you read in data just like you would read in data from the keyboard. Except the data might be more optimized than text.
You coud fit 8 different flags into a single byte of data. A flag is just a specific bit that signifies something. For example, if the first bit of the byte is a '1' it might mean that you've beaten a certain area of the game.

Windows explorer help. it closes when i right click on a file, delete or even copy a file?
When I open Windows Explorer, My Computer, or My Doucuments.. anything; everytime I right-click on something it pauses for a second and then closes. Take off desktop icons, taskbar.. basic explorer crash. It happens when I right click on folders, files, anything. Sometimes it will also do it when I click on a file push delete (or ctrl c to copy) on my keyboard, it crashes. (same as Badass' question). i tried hop0409s answer but it still didn't work. even when i open my computer by just double clicking and leave it for a while, after a few seconds, windows explorer pauses for a second and closes.
Windows explorer help. it closes when i right click on a file, delete or even copy a file?
Did you check your Computer for any Viruses/malware ??? Try AVG virus scan it is free (Google it)

How Do I Clean Out My C Drive?????
I received a warning message from my computer that said I need to clean out my computer C drive but I don't know how. I was told that I only have 5% space left, and to create more space cleaning out the C drive is a definate must. I need to know: (1.) how to ACCESS the C drive (2.) how to CLEAN OUT the C drive, and (3.) how to clean out the C drive WITHOUT deleting any files from my Word Pad documents or losing my anti-spyware program. Please help!!!!!
How Do I Clean Out My C Drive?????
Fast Procedure:
copy your necessary documents on other drive if available. Then format the C Drive fully and install a fresh copy of your OS. Then copy back the documents.
Slow process:
Run "Disk Clean Up " program. U will get it in "Accessories " section. Then Run "Disk De fragment" program.
Reply:Copy ther douments u want to keep to an extrenal hard drive and try formatting C drive
Reply:First download and install CCcleaner.
http://www.ccleaner.com/
this will clear all those hidden temp and cache files.
delete any old files and software you no longer use.
then Derfrag your C drive.
if this does not clear enough space for you ,you need to add a second drive (internal or external) and copy over all your data files (eg Music and word pad)
finally deleting the original copys from your C drive...
Run CCcleaner a second time and your done..
Reformatting the Drive and reinstalling the OS will achieve the Same goal but you will still need a Bigger second drive for all your data.
New large capacity drives are very cheap at the moment so its a easy upgrade for your wallet.......

Reply:When you use a computer for a long time, you are bound to save up quite a collection of data that you may have downloaded from the Internet or created yourself.
You might have a lot of music, videos, documents, emails, pictures, or whatever.
It would be great if you had a hierarchy of directories where you store specific types of files. For example, it would be brilliant if you had a directory called Archives. And in that directory you had subdirectories like HTML_Files, JPG_FIles, TXT_Files, GIF_Files, and so on. In each of those directories you would only store files according to their Windows file-extensions (like .jpg, .txt, .gif, or whatever).
But now you are faced with the onerous task of hunting down all your personal files and saving them to removable media (such as CD, DVD, USB flash drive, or external USB hard disk drive -- or potentially, a new internal hard disk drive).
Starting Cleaning With CCleaner
=======================
To start you on your way, though, I'd like to recommend the CrapCleaner (ccleaner.com). Install that little gem and let it clean out your temporary Internet files and all the other useless temporary files that may exist on your computer.
Accessing The C: Drive
=======================
Just open the Windows Explorer and look for C: on the left-hand side. It's probably the only hard disk drive in your computer.
Everything that is stored on your computer is probably stored on the C: (especially if the computer is store-bought rather than home-built).
Just Out Of Curiosity
=======================
What version of Windows are you using?
Reply:or just try right clicking drive C then properties then clean disk in one of the tabs also defragment that drive to refresh that space may need to burn stuff to disks and delete them off your drive
Reply:if u know just as little as this then limit your action by empting the trush bin, delete all pictures and videos and music and uninstal games.
Reply:C: drive is where u have installed Ur windows...............u can access it by double clicking C: drive icon on my computer......
(1) if u want to just increase ur space......then u may delete unwanted programs from.........add or remove programs.........
go to control panel...........Add or remove programs......and remove unwanted prog......this'll increase space.........
(2) if u try to format ur drive it'll erase all data........so prepare a backup of all data like drivers(use drivers guide software) etc.........and then.........reinstall windows.......should have windows CD handy.......
option (1) is preffered......gud bye........
Reply:1. Drive C can be accessed by double clicking on "My Computer" icon on desktop.
2. To clean out drive C, right click on C and click on properties and then press Disk cleanup, select all the check boxes and the OK.
3. by doing above you will not lose any of your important files or anti virus software.
Also try moving your other files which may be available in drive C to other portable media, like movies, songs etc.
if above does not help, you can also save some space by switching off System restore, but i would not recommend it. If you have games which you might have installed, just un-install them.
Reply:formate
Reply:Open My Computer right click on C Drive and select Properties and u will find a button called DISK Clean up. Till will first tell u the amount of Temp files which would be cleaned.
You can check all the boxes and click clean, there wont be any documents of your deleted, the disk clean up would delete temp system and application files.
Its always advisable to keep atleast 200 MB of free space on your C Drive.
Other ways of getting some space is to run a program like CC Cleaner. Disk Clean up would clean only Windows and Office Temp files where as CC Cleaner would clean all the application temp files.
If you need further clarification please get back to me.

Reply:Open MyComputer, and the available drives should be shown there. Click on the icon that says Drive C. If you've never accessed the C drive, the files are probably hidden. Choose "Show the Contents of this Drive" on the top left corner (under System Tasks).
1) Look into Documents and Settings, choose the folder that has your username. If you don't know your user name, click on the start button and you'll see your username at the top of the pop-up menu.
2) Inside the folder that has your username clean Recent Documents (just delete everything).
3) Clean MyDocuments. Normally, if you don't specify a given folder, most of your user files are saved here. Delete everything you don't need, or svae them on CD/DVDs if you think you might need them later
4) Go back to your C drive root and look into the program files. Check each folder to make sure you know what it is. If you don't need that software, uninstall it. And by uninstall I mean use Control Panel -%26gt; Add Remove Programs. DO NOT DELETE these files.
It is preferable that you ask some assistance from someone who knows its way better around a computer. You can also easily mess things up.
In the future, DO NOT save everything o the C drive (ie inside the My Documents folder). Create an additional drive for personal files, and save them there.
If you don't think you need a file on an everyday basis, make a backup of it on a CD/DVD, don't store it on the computer. This is especially true, if the files are large in size.
From the way you phrased the question, I'm assuming you're not quite familiar with doing this, so ask someone (who is) to assist you, lest you mess things up.
