Login script and drive mappings
by Guest hrd2fnd- 2 replies
- 393 views
Having no experiance with scripting I thought I would ask for some help. I have this login script that maps 2 groups to the same drive letter depending on which group they are in. The problem is the users are in both groups and none of the drive mappings will map. I'm assuming that it is because of being in both groups that want the same drive letter. Can anyone give me some advice? Here is a pasting of the script. Thank you in advance Hrd Case "DEPT-xxxx_xxxx" WSHNetwork.RemoveNetworkDrive "W:" wscript.sleep 300 WSHNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "W:", "\\server1\xxx\xxx",True Case "DEPT-yyyy_GRP" WSHNetwork.RemoveNetworkDrive "W:" ws…

Why does my Add/Remove Programs only show a few of my applications "unless" I choose the "Frequency of Use" then I can see all of them (even the ones I don't frequently use) I would think that if the default "Name" listed was selected that I should able to see "all" but it doesn't ?? It does this on my home machine and at work.

Can no longer search by "a word or phrase in the file"
by Guest PJM Windsor- 1 reply
- 294 views
I used to use "search" regularly to find files that had been saved on my hard drive. I would search "all files or folders", type in the name that I wanted to find, ask for the in which I had stored the file, select the date range within which I had created it, click search, and I would be shown a list of the files containing that name, and then I could open the appropriate file. I recently uninstalled Norton Security, ran defragment and checkdisk, then installed Mcafee security. Since then I cannot search by word in a file. I keep getting an answer that there are no files, even if I look in a file or folder in which I know that a file containing that w…

How to hide Command window when batch file runs
by Guest v2win- 4 replies
- 310 views
On WinXPSP3, fully patched. I would like to execute a small batch file by executing a quicklaunch toolbar shortcut whose target is a .cmd file on the C:\ drive. Everything works as intended, but I don't want the command window appearing on the desktop and remaining open until the launched app. closes. Is there something that I can add to the script to allow this to execute in the background, without the command window launching on the desktop? The content of the file is something like this: echo off (net start service 1)&&(net start service 2)&&(net start service 3) "C:\Program Files\Product Directory\exec\app.exe" -- V2

MP3 player and USB
by Guest Bill Again- 7 replies

My MP3 player is not recognised by my PC when I plug it into a USB port. My PC recognises and operates all the other USB devices that I use. When I plug in the MP3 player a helpful window pops up called "MTP Media Player" that asks me what I want Windows to do. Despite sounding so helpful, the window is empty of suggestions. In System Properties, Hardware, Device Manager, an MP3 player is shown. It shows up with a new entry, "Windows Portable Devices - MTP Device". It alleges that everything is working. But it is not. There is nothing wrong with the MP3 player, it works fine on my laptop. On the laptop Device Manager window it appears under "Storage …
