Trouble saving system files using resource hacker.

I have a Windows 7 pc. I recently installed a new program called resource hacker which allows you to modify system files. I also on my computer have a Windows XP VHD which I also installed the program. I first tried editing the explorer.exe file on windows
7. The few first times I was able to use system restore to restore my computer back to an earlier date. I edited the explorer.exe file on Windows XP also. On Windows 7 once it was edited, I followed the instructions on how to save it. When I saved it I has
to restart my computer. Once I did that, the desktop color came on and the icons and start menu and taskbar were gone as if there were no explorer.exe file at all. This time when I did it I went to system restore in the system recovery options before
I got to the log on screen. It said that there were no restore points available. I also tried putting the original files in the windows folder through task manager, but that didn't work either. when I restarted I got the same screen as I did before. I managed
to save it on Windows XP. In Windows XP I just had to go and end the explorer.exe file in task manager. I did that and I got the desired result that I edited it for. On Windows 7 I followed the instructions of how to save it, but it just won't work. I followed
the instructions just as they said but I get the same result every time. On the website that it tells you how to save it, but what I don't understand is that how they did it so easily on Windows 7, but when you try to save it on your own computer you
run into that same problem that I am running into. What I don't get is that how it works on Windows XP, but I can't get it to work on Windows 7. I hope that help clarify the issue that I am having with my computer and the program.

Yes, I suspect there're some corrupted or missing system files, please press win+R, launch "Run" dialog box, type "cmd" or command prompt in recovery console tool (you should login in as a admin), then type the following command
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
check if it can help you fix the incorrect files.
Regarding to the the missing restore point, please take a look in this link:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/win7/archive/2011/02/16/restore-points-lost-after-system-rebooting.aspx
Please also check the event viewer, run "eventewr" in command prompt, it will launch the event viewer interface

  • Having trouble saving tiff files to server

    Hi all,
    I'm having trouble saving tiff files to our server (a mac pro running OSX 10.5.7 client not server). I get the error message 'could not save "filename" because write access was not granted. The disk in question is set to ignore permissions and the other 3 Macs on the network have no problems.
    Bizarrely this only seems to happen when saving as a Tiff file, I can save as JPEG without issue! The file will usually save after a few attempts, sometimes six or seven save as' are needed.
    This problem comes and goes, but at the moment its pretty bad.
    This is becomming very frustrating as Tiff is our prefered format and we work as a team so have to save to the server.
    Any ideas?

    Just to expand on Buko's correct ansswer, this is the boilerplate text I use in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
    If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
    See: 
    http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/322391.html
      Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
         Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work.   It should.
        Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
      If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
    When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

  • I'm having trouble saving my file in adobe acrobat pro 9

    I'm having trouble saving my file in adobe acrobat pro 9.  When I attempt to save I get message saying,"Bad File Handle".  There are several pictures on this file I'm trying to save...dont know if that has anything to do with the problem, just thought it would be helpful information.  Would really appreciate any insight anyone has to offer.
    Thanks in advance

    I am having a similar problem with a simple pdf form.  I have made several changes to the pdf and when I go to save, I get the message that I can't save the file due to a "bad file handle."  I have opened, altered, saved, and closed the form several times before, just not now.  No one else was working on the form.  The file format is still a pdf and nothing has changed.

    Hi,
    I am trying to save xml file using byte array obtained from interactive form element in webdynpro java.
    The file gets saved but I get fllowing error message when I open the file.
    The XML page cannot be displayed
    Cannot view XML input using style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.
    An invalid character was found in text content. Error processing resource 'http://uxjciesk.wdf.sap.corp:50000/irj/go/km/doc...

  • Why don't Grapher's Frame Limits work correctly with saved Grapher files using multiple equations on Mountain Lion?

    Hi,
    I generally enjoy using Grapher in OS X (I am using Mountain Lion v10.8.2). However, I have repeatedly encountered what seems to be broken basic functionality in setting the limits on the display frame  (View> Frame Limits…). When opening saved Grapher files with multiple valid equations in them (equations which include constant terms defined as sets of numbers), I repeatedly get the following behavior:
    1. Frame limits are not correctly saved. As in, the file opens with a different view than it was saved and closed in.
    2. Frame limits no longer work as expected. For example, I might set the Y axis frame limits to be -2 to 2, but the Y axis of the frame display will run from about -1.95 to about -0.35.
    3 Performance is degraded. Making a change to the frame limits (for ecxample, changing the Y frame limits to -2.2 and 5 in an attempt to display something approximating the range -2 to 2) take an inordinate amount of both processor time and clock time. The spinning ball appears and hangs out far longer than is welcome, and at times seems to hang requiring a force quit of Grapher.
    These problems occur regardless of coordinate system.
    Is there a solution? If I create a new file and start from scratch the problems reappear. The problems reappear across a wide range of 2D equation types.
    Is Grapher simply broken in this regard?
    Thanks for the input.

    Bonjour Lexy-Lou,
       You are right, the bug was born with Grapher as you may read on the website
    <http://y.barois.free.fr/grapher/> :
    Grapher’s bugs and their remedies (OS X in French).
              Bug nr. 1. (Grapher 1.1, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3). When modifying the main 2D window size, the graph length and height already formatted (menu Format) are changed : axis scale values stay the same, added objects remain same size on the same places (unit pixel) relative to the graph left upper corner ; but the graph view changes for the ratio H/L do so : very annoying !
                        The remedy : To restore the 2D graph after changing the window size : menu Format > Layout > Size > redo the initial choice (paper size or L and H values)… or avoid having to do so by selecting a window large enough to begin with.
                        Proposed correction : making the graph size independent of the main window’s one.
              Bug nr. 2. (Grapher 1.1, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3). Saving is wrong in 2D (menu File > Save, Save as, Save a copy as). Are not seved : the last location on the screen of the main window, the graph size, the maximum and minimum values of the ordinate scale : very very annoying !
                        Note : The new windows of Grapher 1.1 (Grapher secondary window > New Graph > 2D or 3D Graph) always open in the same place on the screen( OS X 10.4.11 configured in French) depending on the language used by Grapher : if it’s English, well placed and covering most of the screen, if it is French, the windows are half length but same height and are located on the right side of the screen. This anomaly disappeared with Grapher 2.0, 2.1, 2.2 (English or French).
                        The remedy : to restore the 2D graph after opening a GCX files (.gcx) : menu Format > Layout > Size > redo the initial choice (Paper size or L and H values) to be done twice ; then menu View > Frame limits... > enter minimum and maximum vaues of the y scale. This requires to note four numerical values, L, H, y-min, y-max, for example at the top of the equation list (or at the bottom : see bug nr. 27).
                        Proposed correction : complete saving in 2D.
    For the full list of Grapher's bugs please download "Instructions for Use - Grapher" (English) or "Mode d'emploi de Grapher" (French). Quick glance at the Contents (pages 2 & 3) you'll be surprised by the possibilities of Grapher.app despite the bugs.
      Enjoy,
    Au revoir,

  • Trouble saving files in resource hacker...again

    that I did edit the file. I can't seem to save the file without windows replacing the edited file.

  • After saving a file using Excel 2010 in the My Documents folder, it cannot be found using the open button in Excel 2010

    When certain files are saved using Excel 2010 to the My Documents folder, they cannot be found by using the Open button within Excel 2010.  But the file is always found using My Computer and following the path to My Documents.  What is
    even odder is that if I do a "Save As" within Excel and rename the file to the same name but with a "!" at the beginning of the name, it will then show up in the Excel Open window.  There doesn't seem to be a distinct pattern as to
    when the file can or cannot be displayed by the Excel Open button.
    I am using Windows 7 64bit along with Office 2010 64bit.  Windows has current service packs and updates.  There are perhaps 200 - 400 Excel files in the My documents folder. Some of them are .XLS and some are .XLSX.

    Hi,
    Do you mean that you can't find the Excel file when you click Excel->Open->My Documents folder? 
    Do you use the other folder path to test?
    Dose the issue occur in other Office suits (Word, Power Point)?
    Do you get some error message, like "Windows cannot find 'FilePath\FileName', Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again."?
    Please try the following methods:
    Method1:
    1. Go to the registry. Click START, and in the RUN command line type REGEDIT and hit ENTER or click OK.
    2. Navigate to the following key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Excel.Sheet.8\Shell\Open\Command
    3. Double click on the (Default) instance over to the right. Right now this probably says something like:
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\EXCEL.EXE /dde
    Change this value to:
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\EXCEL.EXE /e "%1"
    4. Navigate to the following key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Excel.Sheet.12\Shell\Open\Command
    Again, double click the (Default) entry to the right and change
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\EXCEL.EXE /dde
    to
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\EXCEL.EXE /e "%1"
    Note : Please backup the registry key before you modify.
    Method2:
    Click the File tab, and then click Options.
    Click Advanced, scroll down to the General
    section, and then clear the Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) check box in the
    General area.

  • Trouble saving PS files in Illustrator

    I have several files that I created in PSCS3. They are all simple, with two or three flat colors, one color per layer, no effects, shadows, etc. My client is having these printed in China using a type of silk screening process on mug-like items. The printer in China has asked me to resend the files in Illustrator. I am not familiar with Illustrator, but do own a copy of CS3, so I opened my PS file, dragged it to the AI icon and saved it as a layered AI file. The problem is that when I print it out on my Epson printer the AI file looks a little more fuzzy around the edges than the PS file. I checked Document Raster Effects setting in AI (a warning said it was at 72 dpi) and changed it to 300 dpi. That helped a little. But, there still is a small difference so I am wondering if there is anything else I can do to make the objects appear as smooth in AI as they are in PS. I am a little out of my depth here so I hope someone can help. (I have posted this to the Photoshop forum and it was suggested I post it with the Illustrator side as well) Thanks so much!

    I received this response from the Illustrator forum:
    As Monika said, unless you properly vectorize everything, there is no point in just embedding the PSDs in AI. Since you speak of "simple, with two or three flat colors", I'm afraid you started off on the completely wrong foot by doing it in PS in the first place. This screams "it needs to be vector" all over the place, the reason being that for silk screen you create a sieve mask for each color and for maximum sharpness of these masks, vectors work better. It's not an ultimate requirement, though, but based on that info, as a minor you must familiarize yourself with how to create spot color separations using multichannel/duoton/tritone documents in Photoshop. It may still cause fuzzy edges, but at least you should get clean colors. Otherwise you need to learn AI and re-draw all elements there, assigning proper color swatches which then could be used to create proper separations..."
    I would appreciate being directed to a good tutorial on how to create the spot color separations spoken of here-is there one anyone recommends? Thanks!

  • Having trouble saving txt files

    everythin's workin fine. but only a part of the txt file i have saved can be seen on my ipod nano......like the first 10 pages or somethin, the it wont scroll down....any help would be greatly appreciated guys

    Only the first 4000 characters of a note will be displayed on the iPod; either set it as a song lyric or use this form to split the note. An iPod will only list the first 1000 notes when a greater number is stored on it.

  • Having trouble saving over files in right location.

    When using Adobe Illustrator CS5 mainly but other applications too.
    I am working from a server, say there is folder A, B, C and D.
    I open up a file from folder A, amend it etc and go to save over that (cmd-shift-s - i use this as it previews correctly rather than hitting cmd-s where it will preview only a bit of the artboard) and the save dialog box will either show folder B, C or D or will just Downloads or Documents for example - basically it will want to save anywhere other than I opened it from!
    This is a pain because if I am working on 4 or 5 files making small amends and just quickly wanting to save over them and get onto the next one I have to then navigate to where the file is, even though I opened the document from there.
    I have experienced this problem ever since upgrading to Mavericks!
    Also, the Save box is tiny! I always have to expand it to see the folder contents etc
    Hope this all makes sense and appreciate any help you can offer
    Please note it doesn't help either way if I use Save (cmd-s) or Save As (cmd-shift-s). My colleague is also experiencing the same problem since upgrading to Mavericks.
    Thanks

    Ive just posted this but have been directed to this thread...
    Recently updated mac to Mavericks and a few teething problems to say the least, a few quirky bits in the adobe software programs which Im asking if anyone else is experiencing.
    Open a file in illustrator, save as, click to the new window and file where i need at saved and the window totally disappears.
    To 'save as' I have to save the file to the desktop, click the folder and change the name. Unable to 'Save as' to a different file as well.
    Not the end of the world but irritating!
    using Creative Cloud
    Im also having problems with indesign, importing an image to an image box and the window vanished - having to drag and drop from desktop to layout.
    Help and suggestions from Adobe please?

  • Trouble saving video files in premiere 13

    Hello!

    What is your computer operating system? If Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit, there have been known Microsoft issues related to the Windows Media Player and video with MPEG2 video compression. Are the 720 x 480 files also MPEG2?

  • Saving .jpg files using Photoshop elements 11

    I'm having troupble uing "save" and "save as" in Photoshop Elements 11.  This just started happening about a month ago.  Appprox. half the pictures I save do not appear in the designate file.  Instead a box with "JPG" inside appears.  The only way I can see the actual picture is to use a different application and resave.  I have an Apple.  Can anyone help with this?

    Then it is absolutely vital to delete the preferences. You must do this for PSE every time you do  a major OS X upgrade, like from 10.7 to 10.8 or from 10.8 to 10.9.
