How to determine which Visual C++ Redistributables are really required?

A client's PC came with a whole load of unwanted Desktop-Applications pre-installed, which were consequently removed. Unfortunately, there are still various generations of Visual C++ runtimes to be found on the system. - Is there a reliable way
to determine which of those are still needed after cleaning up those unwanted apps?

Hi,
Let's take Microsoft Visual C++2010 Redistributable Package as example:
The Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package installs runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries required to run applications developed with Visual C++ on a computer that does not have Visual C++ 2010 installed.
This package installs runtime components of C Runtime (CRT), Standard C++, ATL, MFC, OpenMP and MSDIA libraries.
While, I don't think there any reliable way to determine which of those package still needed after removed them.
In my opinion, these package doesn't occupy too much space, why not keep them in case an application that need them.

  • How to determine which photo stream photos are in a project?

    Hi all,
    I would like to create a query (I'm sorry, an intelligent album) to get all of my current photos in photo stream which are currently NOT in an aperture project (i. e. I accitentally deleted them from a photo stream project).
    If I right-click on a photo in my Photo Stream which is not located in a project, the context menu item "In Projekt anzeigen" (Show in Project) is missing:
    If the photo is in a project, the menu item is available:
    How to I query for this?
    Thanks a lot for your help!

    Hi,
    do check in the program /SSA/BWT . or TCODE - ST13 -- enter BW-TOOLS and execute. -- Choose Process chains and execute --- Select the date and time for which you want to see the process chains and execute again.
    This will give you the entire list of process chains triggered, status, timings(start, end, overall runtime). Once clicked on the process chains it will show you the steps in theprocess chains, data loaded in the data targets, source system, etc...
    hope it helps.

  • How to determine which photos in library are missing their master images

    I recently consolidated referenced images into my library. It said some of those images were missing the masters. How do I figure out which ones are missing the master images?

    You can do a filter on your library with "File Status" is "Missing". The "File Status" query is not available by default, but you can add it by clicking the upper-right button in the filter window.

  • How to determine which elements are queryable via Web Services QueryPage

    I am trying to query opportunities by associated opportunity product revenue records, but I continue to receive errors like "Unexpected text: = '9598015'".
    From reviewing the forums, it looks like this is when I am querying a field that is not defined to be queryable.
    Could someone please tell me how to determine which fields are queryable on a particular record type like this? I have tried using basic short text fields and indexed short text fields - but continue to receive the error message above.
    Thanks in advance.

    I found at least partial answers to my questions.
    MessageContext.getPropertyNames() can be used to see the properties on a given flow.
    MessageContext.getProperty(prop) can be used to get information for paroperties such as:

  • How CSSCAN determines which indexes need to be rebuild ?

    Hi everybody,
    i'm currently migrating 3 Oracle databases that contain CP1252 characters unproperly stored in WE8ISO8859P1 instances.
    The key steps of the migration are :
    1. ALTERing CHARACTERSET to WE8MSWIN1252
    2. changing CHARACTER SEMANTIC LENGTH for CHAR and VARCHAR2 columns
    3. truncating data stored in VARCHAR2(4000) columns
    2. Full export
    3. Full import in a ALL32UTF8 instance
    To do all of this (and especially the step 3), i use the CSSCAN utility (very practical !!!).
    And i have a question about CSSCAN: how CSSCAN determines which indexes need to be rebuild. What is the logic ?
    Looking at the CSSCAN report, i have a lot of cells/columns that are affected by the characterset migration, and i have just a few index to rebuild.
    Why would i like to understand the logic ? Because i would like to rebuild ONLY indexes that REALLY need to be rebuilt and i am not sure that all the indexes specified by CSSCAN really need to be rebuilt.
    Thanks for any information about that.
    (and sorry for my english)
    NB: i have managed "function-based indexes" specifically: i drop them before the export, and i recreate them after the import. So my question mostly target the "regular indexes"

    1. All indexes whose key contains at least one character column with convertible or exceptional data, excluding indexes with names equal to some constraint name for the same owner.
    plus
    2. All functional indexes on tables that have columns needing conversion, excluding indexes with names equal to some constraint name for the same owner.
    The condition regarding constraints does not seem to be very fortunate but it comes from times when the appropriate flag in index metadata was not yet available.
    But note that in your migration scenario, you do not actually have to care much about indexes. Step 1 & 2 do not need any modifications to the user data and hence to index contents. Step 3, if done through UPDATE, will modify affected indexes automatically. Step 4 does not affect the database. Step 5 will recreate all existing indexes anyway.

  • How to determine which archive logs are needed in flashback.

    Hi,
    Let's assume I have archive logs 1,2,3,4, then a "backup database plus archivelogs" in RMAN, and then archive logs 5+6. If I want to flashback my database to a point immediately after the backup, how do I determine which archive logs are needed?
    I would assume I'd only need archive logs 5 and/or 6 since I did a full backup plus archivelogs and the database would have been checkpointed at that time. I'd also assume archive logs 1,2,3,4 would be obsolete as they would have been flushed to the datafiles in the checkpoint.
    Are my assumptions correct? If not what queries can I run to determine what files are needed for a flashback using the latest checkpointed datafiles?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the explanation, let me be more specific with my problem.
    I am trying to do a flashback on a failed primary database, the only reason why I want to do a flashback is because dataguard uses the flashback command to try and synchronize the failed database. Specifically dataguard is trying to run:
    FLASHBACK DATABASE TO SCN 865984
    But it fails, if I run it manually then I get:
    SQL> FLASHBACK DATABASE TO SCN 865984;
    FLASHBACK DATABASE TO SCN 865984
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-38754: FLASHBACK DATABASE not started; required redo log is not available
    ORA-38761: redo log sequence 5 in thread 1, incarnation 3 could not be accessed
    Looking at the last checkpoint I see:
    CHECKPOINT_CHANGE#
    865857
    Also looking at the archive logs:
    RECID STAMP THREAD# SEQUENCE# FIRST_CHANGE# FIRST_TIM NEXT_CHANGE# RESETLOGS_CHANGE# RESETLOGS
    25 766838550 1 1 863888 10-NOV-11 863892 863888 10-NOV-11
    26 766838867 1 2 863892 10-NOV-11 864133 863888 10-NOV-11
    27 766839225 1 3 864133 10-NOV-11 864289 863888 10-NOV-11
    28 766839340 1 4 864289 10-NOV-11 864336 863888 10-NOV-11
    29 766840698 1 5 864336 10-NOV-11 865640 863888 10-NOV-11

    How can I determine what archive logs are needed by a flashback command? I deleted any archive logs with a SCN less than the checkpoint #, I can restore them from backup but I am trying to figure out how to query what is required for a flashback. Maybe this coincides with the point that flashbacks have nothing to do with the backups of datafiles or the checkpoints?

  • How to determine which photos are not in an album?

    I have @ 5500 photos in V2.01 vor Os 10.2.8. I would like to determine which photo's are not in an album. I know I can write a perl script to do print this information, but it might be nicer if done from within iTunes.

    Billy,
    There is a way that will take a little time but will give you the results.
    Write down the name of all your Albums and number them.
    In iPhoto add the new numbers (corresponding to the albums) as keywords.
    After all the number keywords have been added you need to give the images in each album that numbered keyword.
    Highlight an album in the source column, select all, then assign them the number keyword for that album.
    do this for all the albums.
    Make sure your view is set to view keywords.
    You should be able to see any photo that does not have one of those number keywords.
    there might be a simpler way, but I don't have iPhoto 2 to test for you.

  • SharePoint Databases - How to determine which ones are being used and which ones aren't

    I am not sure where to exactly post this question.  On the SQL Server side or on a SharePoint side.
    I am a SQL Server Database Administrator who is monitoring some SharePoint databases.  On a daily basis it seems that they are creating new databases but don't delete the databases that they are no longer using.  For example, they might be testing
    on a development server and if things aren't working properly instead of asking that the databases be deleted they just go ahead and create new databases to do what ever they need to do.  Is there a way on the SQL Server side to determine which SharePoint
    databases are being used and which ones aren't being used?  Or does one determine this information through the SharePoint Central Administration console?
    lcerni

    Hello,
    The following query gives you the databases now in use.
    SELECT
    DISTINCT d.name
    FROM
    sys.dm_tran_locks
    tl INNER
    JOIN sys.databases
    d

    How can I quickly determine which SUS Scenario my company is using?  Is this a configuration option in SPRO? 
    We are using ECC to create PO -> IDOC-XML -> PI -> Proxy -> SUS
    SUS creates PO Confirmation, ASN, Invoice response documents to ECC.
    Is this classic/ extended classic/ plan driven?

    Matt,
      In IMG check this setting.
    Activate Extended Classic Scenario: This setting determines whether Enterprise Buyer processes processes carts with the extended classic scenario
    If this setting is not on, the implementation is either classic or standalone.
    Check define backend systems used. If the backend system is defined as non-sap systems, the implementation is standalone.

  • How to determine which new add-ons were installed?

    I am troubleshooting on a system that I use regularly, but I am not the primary user. When I started Firefox today I got an Add-ons window saying that "3 new add-ons have been installed". I'd like to know which 3 are the newly installed add-ons, because I suspect they are things my mother agreed to inadvertently. This system now has 15 Extensions, 1 Theme, and 17 Plugins installed, including the 3 new ones. Is there any way for me to determine which 3 are the new ones? By the way, I'm not entering this question from the system inquestion, so any info of that type that gets appended to this submission should be ignored. The system in question is running Windows XP Home SP3 and Firefox 3.6.10.

    Installing Acrobat DC Standard¶
    Acrobat DC products delivered via an ESD EXE download provide one installer that is used for both Acrobat Standard and Professional. The serial number you use determines which product is installed. What’s important to note is that when you extract the Acrobat ESD EXE (Acrobat_DC_Web_WWMUI.exe or Acrobat_2015_Web_WWMUI.exe), you’ll see AcroPro.msi in the output folder. This is the correct behavior. Simply remember to use AcroPro.msi in any command line scripts.
    Note
    Existing scripts that use AcroStan.msi should be updated."
    Both Acrobat DC Pro and Standard have KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\2015\Installer ENU_GUID {AC76BA86-1033-FFFF-7760-0E0F06755100}

  • Determining which EDI Error Messages are related to "Tasks"

    Our company uses EDI heavily and have many errors which our business community wiill process.   I do not know how other companies are handling this "EDI workflow", but we do this through transaction PPOM.   We have created an overall EDIORG organization along with positions for different areas of responsibility.  We then need to assign the "appropriate tasks" to each position & also assign the correct position to the Partner profiles to ensure the correct people see the errors.  
    My question is how can II determine which "Tasks" are assign to the specific message errors that end up coming in?    Most Tasks are by Idoc type --- do I just have to assume that any error related to that IDoc type would be covered?
    Thanks so much for any input as to "Controlling the EDI Error processing" by business users!

    Hi surya,
    You are saying 1122124 is IDOC numner & its not relevant to this idoc.
    What it means,can u explain??? Actually there will be a chance an IDOC can mapped to N no of documents. This mapping will done through a BADI internally.
