Cannot delete a file or open it from desktop
Sorry if this is a repeat question, but I have not been able to find a good solution. When I try to delete a specific .aif file from my desktop, I get the following message:
The operation can’t be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -8072).
When I click 'get info' to possibly edit the permissions on it so I can delete it, I am unable to edit anything in the info pane. Under the Sharing & Permissions tab, it reads "You have unknown access." When I try to open the .aif file in iTunes, I get the following message:
The Application "iTunes" can't be opened.
-108
However, iTunes works perfectly for me for all other compatible filetypes. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
Jacob
Restart with the Option key held down and run repair disk from the recovery partition.

Cannot delete exe files - The action can't be completed because the file is open in Windows Explorer
We have received 3 new computers with Windows 8.1. All of us 3 have the same problem: we cannot delete exe files with message "The action can't be completed because the file is open in Windows Explorer"
For example, I download skypeinstall.exe on desktop, install the program correctly and then try to delete the file: file is in use by Windows Explorer, cannot be delete.
We reboot computer, we are able to delete the file. But, if I restore the file from the recycle bin on the desktop, I cannot delete it again until I reboot the PC. I used ProcessExplorer to see what is locking it and I can see 5 instances of explorer.exe
locking the file.
I can always reproduce the same way:
1-Reboot
2-Delete exe file
3-Restore file
4-Delete stop working and 5 explorer.exe handle are locking it.
I have tried the following so far after reading multiple threads:
- De-activating Windows Search service
- Activating User Experience service
- Deleting from command prompt (no success)
- In folder options: inactivate display icon on thumbnail and activate always display icons, never thumbnail
- Changing folder view (contents, detail, small icons...)
- Using Lock Hunter - not working until reboot
None of these worked.
We all have Windows 8.1 with Crucial SSD drive, could the problem be linked with the SSD drive incompatibility?
Any help would be appreciated.Hi,
Please try to make a clean boot for your system, then check if this problem resolved.

If problem persists, try to open Resource Monitor to check handle of Explorer.exe, if there any exception, end them for test.

Cannot Delete CPTL file from Desktop using Vista
Hi All,
I cannot Delete CPTL file from Desktop using Vista. Explorer
crashes. It is a Captivate 2 file.
I have tried (with no luck):
- logging in as a different user and deleting the file.
- running explorer as an Administrator
- uninstalling Captivate.
Anyone got any ideas?
Cheers,
RaefHi Raef,
That is a strange issue. Here are a couple more ideas you
could try:
- Have you tried renaming the file (including suffix)?
- Have you rebooted?
- Do you get any error messages when trying to delete, such
as "Acess Denied"?
- Is your machine networked? Is it possible someone else has
the file open?
- Can the file be moved to another location or put in a
folder (and then deleted)?
- Have you tried using the Command Prompt / DOS mode to
delete the file?
It sounds like it could be a Vista issue so I would look at
the Microsoft Vista forums too. Sorry I do not have an exact
answer.

I cannot delete a file from the documents folder. I can move it to the trash and then empty it, but when I go back to the documents folder, the file is still there.
Gay,
I wonder what your computing environment is. Is your account being administrated by another account? Are you working in an account subject to "Parental Controls"?

I am getting error on creating even the empty web application project. The error message is as given below:
The system cannot find the file specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070002)
I am using following build of Visual Studio:
Visual Studio Professional 2013. Version 12.0.30723.00 Update 3
Looks like it is the problem with the installation of the visual studio. But I can't take risk of re-installing now because it would stop my going on development work.
Any would help to resolve this would be appreciated.
P.S. I am also having Visual Studio 2010 and Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate on my system.
Regards, RandeepHello Randeep,
Will you get the same error when creating any other apps, like C# WinForm?
If only web application project has the problem, you can try the following to reset the templates:
Please open Windows Explorer, and navigate to <Visual Studio Installation Path>\Common7\IDE (by default is C:\Program Files \Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE);
Delete the ItemTemplatesCache, ProjectTemplatesCache folder;
Open Visual Studio Tools/Developer Command Prompt for VS2013
under Start menu -> All Programs -> Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 -> Visual Studio Tools (run it with Administrator privilege: right-click the program -> Run as administrator);
Run the devenv /InstallVSTemplates switch;
Run the devenv /Setup switch
If all your projects get this error, please try repair the installaiton from control panel first. By the way, can you use Visual Studio Web projects before you get this error? And have you tried to use the Visual Studio Update 4, I see you still used
Update 3, is there any reason for you to still use the Update 3 version?

Barry

Hello,
we were planning to Upgrade from AGPM 4.0 to AGPM 4.0 SP2. The new AGPM should be placed on a new server. Additionally we created a new service account as the password of the old service account has been lost. We granted the new service account Full Rights
in "Domain Delegeation" and "Product Delegation", then stopped the AGPM Service on the old server.
On the new server AGPM was installed using the new service account, then the service was stopped and the archive was copied rom the old to the new server. The customer could edit policies, but not deploy them. Because of this, we changed back to the old
server, but copied the folders that were changed on the new server to keep them up to date.
Now creating a controlled Group Policy from a template causes the error
„The system cannot find the file specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070002). We tried several templates and even created new ones but the problem persists.
The following things do work:
- editing a controlled policy
- renaming a controlled policy
- check in/check out of a policy
- set a uncontrolled policy to controlled (needs to grant the serviceaccount Full rights to the policy before)
- deletion of a controlled policy
- creating a template from a policy
Thank you in advance for your help.0x80070002 usually means that the source could not be found or located. Make sue that the FQDN path to your templates is the correct one as well as your DNS is
properly configured.

Some files in "DOCUMENTS" icon in dock won't open. Get msg saying "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document." Already have Pages 4.1 installed. Same files will open ok from Finder/Pages App./selected file. Prob not noted until recently after sync'd with ipad2 (Pages) when I installed iOS5. Anyone-- please?!
You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

Hello,
I am creating an app using NAPA tool in Office 365. I am trying to "Add an attachment" to a custom list item using SPServices. When I am using my code (jquery code) in content editor web part on a page, its working fine, but when I am adding
the same code in an app, its giving me error : "The system cannot find the file specified. (Exception from HRESULT:

Any suggestions, why I am getting this error in NAPA ?Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you have an issue about adding attachments to list items in app.
To add attachment to list item in the host web, we should first get the list and the list items from the host web, then add the attachments to the list items.
There are two articles about retrieve the list and list items in the host web, you can refer to them.
http://www.dotnetcurry.com/showarticle.aspx?ID=1028
http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/93cb27/retrieve-sharepoint-app-host-web-list-items-in-sharepoint-ho/
What’s more, we can also use the REST API to achieve the same scenario.

The installer complained that The system cannot find the file specified. However I'm confused that why the VSTO is related to AWAddinInstaller.exe.
Could you please navigate to your %temp% folder and search for your VSTO logs out and paste it here? I need it to check for details.
