  1. Windows 8 Windows 8 - Slow hard disk access.

    Hi there folks and I just wanted to ask a question that has been pulling my hair out for the last months of Windows 8 being released. When Windows 8 was released I was eager to pay the £24.99 and buy it, so I did. Unfortunately though, there is one issue that is driving me crazy. This is slow...
  2. Windows 7 Windows Screwed Up AGAIN! Relocation of Music Folder BOTCHED and FUBAR!

    I just installed a 750 GB internal SSD and migrated many gigabytes of data to that drive after initializing and formatting, and as part of this process I used Microsoft's "Relocate" option of the Music folder properties. This was a very bad decision. The interface options did NOT correlate to...

    Windows 7 How can I fix user folders in windows 7?

    Ok, hopefully this will make sense to you guys, so here it goes. My husband and I just got a new desktop, I originally planned on sharing a user account but since we're both in school I figured it would be helpful to have our own user accounts just to keep our files more separated and...

    Okay here we are end of 2010 & I'm still stuck at the same issue. Only difference is I had uninstalled Windows 7 Beta as I was using Dual Boot with Win XP. Now I have only one operating system installed the new Windows 7 Ultimate Edition. My previous folder 'My Music 2' was inaccessible for some...
  6. Windows 7 File icons appear twice

    For some reason, if I drop an file, any type, on my desktop, the same file appears in my "my music" folder. If I delete the file in either location, they are both deleted. I have scanned my computer with Microsoft Security Essentials as well as Avast, and no viruses have been found. I also...

    Windows 7 Itunes Metadata 64 Bit Changes Windows 7 not working!

    Hi all, I have spent hours at this, and can't figure it out. On my Windows Vista 32bit system, I have Itunes installed and when I edit the name of a song, it changes it in Explorer and in the Metadata, I've checked using MP3 rename software. Now I have a laptop Windows 7 64bit, installed...

    Windows 7 Can't delete/move folders with files inside

    Hi guys, I'm having some trouble with the Windows 7 RC. I can't seem to delete/move any folders that have a file in them from my user folder. This is especially annoying in the music folder, where there is the hidden album art files. It prevents me from deleting them saying the file is in use...

    Recently installed Win. 7 Ultimate over Vista Home Premium. Real easy, no problems. When I went to use the Windows Live Movie Maker to make a slide sbow of some vacation photos, I could not add music. When I installed a Music CD and tried to down load it into the computer, it went directly to...

  12. Windows 7 Remove Windows 7 Libraries?

    Is there any way of doing this? Normally, I would have no issue just leaving them there, but there are two reasons why I want them out of my system. Whenever I open up Media Player, Media Center, or what not, it automatically accesses Windows Libraries and tries to collect all of my music...

    Windows 7 Those darn libraries

    Hey guys. Is there a way to turn off the use of libraries? I really can't see the functionality of this, and I often end up getting annoyed because I can't see the point. In the start bar when i click Pictures/Music/Whatever I'd like it to go directly to that folder and not the library of that...
