On some Windows environments (Windows 7 and Windows Vista), I have some scripts ruing and one of the things those scripts are doing, is trying to copy files. The results of those commands are logged in a logfile. While looking into that logfile, I've just seen the following result: The system caot find the path specified. This obviously is not very helpful (which file does he try to copy, to which directory, ...), so I would like to replace the existing copy commands by xcopy or other commands (in order to use the xcopy /F flag, which shows all files and directories of the xcopy command), but there is a catch: when I simply replace copy by xcopy then the non-existing directory gets create...

Why is my mac (Snow Leopard) asking me for installer changes (system.install.root.user) by itself? I do not recall doing anything to enable this. I feel like someone is trying to hack into my computer. I hope it is a false feeling. ...

I am using Samsung SSD 850 EVO 500 GB. Instead of installing a fresh copy of Windows 10 on it, an old image of the OS created from an old HHD was used I am worried this may affect the performance/age of the SSD. Which I understood is made to run on 4k bytes per sector. screenshots are on my laptop now after the migration to the ssd. Let's block ads! بخوانید...

Yes, proof UPS,FEX ED, and etc all use them. QRcode are simple patte of binary values either a 1(black) or 0(white) and that is it. The squares can be bigger or smaller, but you still have a 2 digit alphabet. There are no different fonts,styles, or anything. Also because they are so uniform sizes can be auto-detected. They also built-in error checking which is never done,sure spell check can help on text but sometimes it also causes errors, with individual letters when typing or handwriting. If the checksum doesn't balance you read the code wrong, try again. Most QRcode also have alignment squares to make sure the computer rotates them into near perfect alignment before reading them. Typed t...

Your dates show the 17th of each month, which I'm guessing is an irrelevant complication. Can we assume you're talking about whole months and not subdividing amounts by fractional months? –fixer1234 12 mins ago I'm guessing you were busy re-entering things manually while I was embedding your original image. I rolled this back to the "pretty" version because I didn't notice any substantive changes. If you were actually changing things, we'll need to do some code formatting so your manual entries are readable. –fixer1234 8 mins ago You show two events and none of the expense categories overlap. Can we assume that they could possibly overlap? So, for example, if both events had am ...

I have a system that records video to disk, and sometimes the system has an error. I'm trying to recreate the recording system in the lab, without the actual camera (it's expensive and there aren't any spares), to attempt to replicate the usage patte that causes the error. I'm having trouble taming ffmpeg. Background: The video is captured in one thread continuously from an rtsp:// URL provided by the attached camera with this command: ffmpeg -i rtsp://192.168.0.10/h264 -c copy -map 0 -f segment -segment_time 900 -segment_format mp4 -segment_atclocktime 1 -strftime 1 /tmp/capture-%s.mp4 This works and produces video files of 15 minutes duration as expected. Problem: In the lab, I don't hav...

Teamviewer 11 is installed onto a Macintosh via an installer application. I think Teamviewer 10 is erased as the new version is installed. And that's not counting any resources in System Folders (e.g. "/Library/") that get installed or overwritten. I know they can't run at the same time, but does anyone know if Teamviewer 10 & Teamviewer 11 can co-exist on a Macintosh at the same time? Let's block ads! بخوانید...

I'm having problems where email is showing up in an account that it is not being sent to. Email was sent from a PHP form with the intended recipient of [email protected] but the emails keep showing up at [email protected] Is there any way to tell if this is being caused by a filter or something at the ymail address that is automatically forwarding stuff to the earthlink address?

I need to time an object that stays still on a wall but may fail and fall off the wall after some time. Instead of sitting there for the fall that may never occur I would like to use a smartphone camera to sense motion as a trigger for a stopwatch. The app ideally would take snaps from the start of the timing and at the end so as to see what motion triggered the smartphone camera to stop timing... Any ideas? P.S. Did some research that comes up with one rudimentary app for timing laps of ruers by using a smartphone camera. Let's block ads! بخوانید...

Is there a way to set up Microsoft Windows so you can enter accented characters (with diacritics, such as é, ř, ...) by holding a key and then selected the variant you like? I mean the similar way which works on tablets and mobile phones. E.g. you hold the key e and instead of auto-repeating the same character the system would offer you a small menu on the position of the cursor offering é, è, ê etc. Note: I am aware of other ways to enter accented characters. This question is purely about this particular typing method and if it is possible to set up on Microsoft Windows. Maybe using a 3rd party software? Let's block ads! بخوانید...

I have two LG monitors (different ones) coected to my PC, one via D-SUB and the other (a newer monitor) via HDMI. When my PC goes to sleep and sends the VESA sleep command, both of my monitors shut down and go to sleep. The D-SUB monitor's light tus yellow, but the HDMI one just completely shuts off. When I move the mouse and the screens come up from sleep, the D-SUB monitor tus on but the HDMI monitor stays off, and I have to tu it on by pressing the power button, after which it works fine. This happens both on Linux and Windows, so it's not a driver issue. Is there a setting that shuts off the screen completely, instead of sleeping it? I always assumed it's an HDMI issue, but I figured I'd...

I caot alter my modem firmware and there's no legal way to enable bridge mode. I want to add a router so that I can have complete control over the network. If I use DMZ to achieve this, how secure am I? What would happen if an attacker is able to breach my less-secure modem (that is also a router) and change some settings like DNS? Is there any approaches to minimize risks?

I have a todo script in my terminal where I add paths to folders that I am working on.

Find the thread here. If you're using Ubuntu with Gnome, then you can modify the keyboard shortcut assigned to switching windows on VNC server side desktop. You have to use the keyboard shortcut control panel. Browse through System then Preferences then Keyboard Shortcut. In the Keyboard Shortcut window, look for Move Between Windows, Using a popup window. Change it to something that is not a shortcut on your Windows or on the VNC Server. Let's block ads! بخوانید...

I am trying to dual boot windows and linux by putting my second ssd in this optical drive caddy. However, the caddy is not recognized by the BIOS. As far as I can tell from this site, I am ruing the latest version for my model (v1.21). When I tu on the computer, the blue light on the caddy lights up so I am assuming there is at least getting stata power if not data. Did I get a bricked caddy? Unfortunately I do not have another laptop to test it in. The ssd works perfectly if I put it directly in the hard drive slot. Any suggestions? Let's block ads! بخوانید...
