power options and vista explorer
i've been working with windows since the days of wfw 3.11 so i'm not a
novice, though still learning about the changes in vista
i had a couple issues maybe someone can help me with
first with sleep (used to be hibernate). the hiberfil.sys file is there and
i want to delete it (save 2gb space; is not used) but can't figure it out
if i go to change advanced power options, i have 'sleep after - never'
'allow hybrid sleep - off' and 'hibernate after - never'
however it doesn't delete the hiberfil.sys file. anyone know why? am i
missing something? it says the file is in use so can't delete manually
second issue is with vista explorer
previously, i was able to customize the explorer view the way i want and
select 'apply to all folders' and every folder would have the same view
i try that in vista and it doesn't work. after i do that, selecting other
folders goes to other views and the columns don't stay.
for example, i will have it with details showing name, date modified, type,
attribute then tell it to apply to all folders.
next, if i select the root of C, it shows as a list; if i change to details,
the columns are name, date taken, tags, size, rating as if it is a pictures
folder.
of course, being the root of the drive, there is no customize tab to specify
file type (pictures, music, etc)
anyone else have the same issue? |
