Let ff auto delete file from c:windows\temp after download?

Say you download a rar file. firefox builds the file first in C:\windows\temp as it download to completion. Then FF COPIES this file to the destination folder which could be on another drive. BUT FF never deletes this temp-file in c:windows\temp after copying. And you can NOT delete this file temp-file until you close FF. Deleting browser history temp files using ctrl-shift-del does not work.
Why is this?
Say I download many rar files at once. After each file completes firefox cCOPIES them to the destintaion directory. Again they go to another drive. BUT FF never deletes the temp-files form c:\windows\temp after completion of download and copying to the destintaion folder. UNLESS you close firefox.
Meanwhile this can clog up my small SSD drive which is only 20GiB
Need workaround please?

OK you developers are such autistic a**holes. I just tried to manually delete the temp files FF makes when downloading files from c:\windows\temp. This did not free up space there's still the same amount of space left (163MB) on my SSD as before deleting the tempfiles form this dir. WTF is this?

How to delete files from an attached camera after downloading?

New to Aperture 2. I am sure to have a lot of exploring to do but for now I am looking for a way to delete files from an attached camera after downloading like you can with iPhoto. Is this possible?

While I might be a bit paranoid, I prefer to format in the camera after verifying that the import came out OK. It is a small price to pay to make sure that my images are actually on the computer. I don't do anything fancy, just make sure that the thumbnails come up correctly, and maybe perform an edit.
While it was not my images, thank goodness, I did get bit in a similar fashion. I use a "watch fob" style GPS unit for Geocoding. I have hoodahgeo configured to delete my tracks after import. Well, after one session I forgot to update my images with the gps information. As you can guess, when I re-opened HoodahGeo to try and re-geotag, the tracks were gone, so I was out of luck.

Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS: RDS Users are unable to delete files from their desktop

Hello,
We are working with Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS. We also implemented User Profile Disks. This is all working fine without problems. The only issue I have is that normal users are unable to delete files from their desktop. They are getting a message:
you'll need administrator permission to delete this file, with the prompt for administrator access.
They can edit, copy, rename, cut and paste files. But they cannot delete a file from their desktop.
I checked the security permissions of the files on the desktop (for example a normal self-created PDF file) and the users are owner and have "Full Control" over the files.
I checked the file permissions and took a look under "Advanced", selecting the specific domain user and checked the "Advanced Permissions" and the user has the "Delete" option checked. So he should be able to delete the
file.
I am guessing this is UPD related issue, or something in GPO. But I already unlinked the GPO objects, that I felt could be the source of this problem, but without results.
Could someone give me a hint on where to look? It's kinda annoying to users, that they can't delete their own files.

Hello Bria,
What you should check first, is the NTFS permissions on the User Profile Disk to begin with. See if the user has full control over the items that are in the UPD.
Also check the GPO's that are enabled for the user and computer account. You can check that by running: gpresult /h <path>\gpresult.html
There are two GPO settings that could prevent the user from deleting his/her own items:
User
Configuration\\Policies\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\Windows Explorer\
Hide these specified drives in My Computer
Prevent access to specified drives in My
Computer
There might be other GPO settings, that block deleting items on the UPD, but can't think of any out of my head.
I can only think NTFS and GPO settings that might prevent the user from deleting items. In my case it was a GPO setting, that I didn't suspect.

BTnetprotect auto deletes files and hides system f...

Is there any way to stop BTnetprotect from auto deleting files? I don't mind it asking first and letting me decide but do not want it to be an automated process. Also, BTnetprotect seems to regularly hide system files. I set the system files to show and a few days later, BTnetprotect resets them to hidden. Is there any setting to stop this?

BT Netprotect /McAfee can cause problems on some computers and it uses a lot of computer resources. My advise would be to uninstall it and install a free program such as Microsoft Security Essentials or AVG 2013 free or Avast free.
If you do want to uninstall BT Netprotect follow this link
http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/13523/~/i-don't-want-bt-netprotect-plus-anymore.-how-...
Make sure you follow the guide and after a restart run the McAfee removal tool that is available within the above guide.

BOBJ is unable to delete file from OFRS

System Info:
Business Objects Enterprise XI3.1 SP3 FP3.2
Windows 2003 Server Enterprise Edition SP3
Oracle 10.2
Java 1.6.0_20
APACHE Tomcat 5.5.20
2 clustered servers
FRS located on SAN Disk Drive connected to primary server (Winchester1)
We use WebIntelligence exclusivly.
We are receiving the following error in our event log on our clustered server:
Source: BusinessObjects_CMS
Category: General
Type: Warning
Event ID: 33018
Computer: Winchester2
Unable to delete file from the file repository. Make sure a File Repository Server is running and registered and enabled. Details : Failed to connect to the File Repository Server output. Make sure the server is up and running.
We have verified the FRS is running and we are able to connect to it from our clustered server (Winchester2). The security settings are set to full control for the admin group and the users have Read/Write access to the file store folders. The errors are filling up our event logs and causing issues with the servers. this appears to be happening each morning and the file it is trying to delete is an .xls file.
We have a ticket open with SAP Support but they are just as baffled as we are and keep sending us from one group to another and tell us they need to look at it on thier end and they will get back to us.
Has anyone had this happen on their system?

Hi Richard, did you ever get this issue resolved? We are having a similar issue on XI R3 SP4 using NAS/CIFS shares for our File Stores. We see this issue mainly after our servers are patched and a full environment restart is initiated. Like you, our event logs fill up with so many error messages I cannot pinpoint exactly when the issue starts happening.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Hey hkfoolman,

Thanks for the question.
Go into BlackBerry Link and click on the BlackBerry and then click on Options. Make sure you have Music, Pictures, Videos and Documents checkmarked for synchronization. Once these are checked, try to remove the files.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
Cheers.

Unable To Delete Files from Desktop

I have a friend whose Mac Mini "suddenly" started preventing her from deleting files from her desktop. When I tried to drag the file to the Trash, the Mini makes a sound like the file was deposited in the Trash, but the icon remains on the desktop and there is no file in the Trash. I have repaired permissions and even ran FSCK -FY from single user mode. When I logged in under a different Administrator account, it worked perfectly. So, the question is "what preference file do I need to delete?"
TIA.

It's an ownership problem of the Trash folder, not the file you are trying to put in the Trash. Any chance this file on the Desktop may have come from Windows?
I may have misunderstood. It sounded as if you were saying there was a connection between the Trash's ownership and Windows files. Sorry.
And it doesn't fix the problem, but it will tell us if anything can be deleted in the first place.

HOw to delete files from remote server?

Hi,
I want to delete files from a directory on remote server.
I use the following command to delete on current server:
find $srcdir -mtime +90 -name "COR*.txt" -exec rm -f {} \;
Now, how can I delete files from remote server ?
Thanks!
Yogini

Some possible options:
1. There exists SSH implementation for Windows.
2. You can make a workaround. You can setup share for specific/wanted directory.
Then you can mount it on Linux machine and execute command localy and delete files "localy" in mounted directory.
3. You can setup FTP server on Windows machine and do that remotely via FTP commands.
