Re: safe copying from one drive to another
Sylvia <sylvia0647@...>
Hi Monica, I use a program called Teracopy. It seems to be a bit faster than windows explorer.

Yes, I copied mine with two instances of Windows Explorer. I didn’t know there wer any third-party apps for this, but it doesn’t surprised. I didn’t check for one because Explorer seemed to do just fine, even if it did take a long time.
From: Carlos Sent: Friday, September 25, 2015 1:59 PM Subject: Re: [TechTalk] safe copying from one drive to another
The simplest way is to open each drive in a separate instance of Computer/Explorer and then copy/paste everything. There is really no way to speed up the process unless you want to try a third-party copying utility like FastCopy.

process monitoring tools like sysinternals?

Hi guys, I'm wondering, since process explorer from sys internals is pretty much inaccessible, I'm wondering, has anyone ever found a similar utility like it that is usable with screen readers? Thanks.

Or that was the link they used to download the latest version, can someone post it here? I hate that stupid CCleaner site, I can’t seem to ever find the download! Thanks.

problems up-dating antivirus etc
Adrien Collins <adriencollins22160@...>
Hi
I am now using my 4 g internet in the uk, I am here permanently. Firstly I need to change the clock to uk time zone but when I tried to do that in July when I was here visiting nothing would up-date. I am able to receive e-mails etc, it is just antivirus and a few other programs not able to access the net via the 4g. That is my 4g. ok I am staying in a b & b, I have put in their own wifi connection on my laptop, everything works fine. What is happening here please? I haven't tried changing the time and date as yet. Why am I have these issues on my 4g but not another wifi? Regards Adrien

Indeed. Although flash drives usually have
the
"Quick removal"
policy enabled by default which in theory makes it
safer to just physically disconnect them, using the
"Safely Remove/Eject"
option is still overall safer.

Hi Monica,
When you are removing a flashdrive it's always best
to use the Safely Remove Hardware option from the system tray or, use the eject
option from the File Menu or the Context Menu.
Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool. Go Dodgers!

Re: another question about drives

It doesn't matter if you are using an external hard
drive or a thumb drive. You should use Safely Remove Hardware. If
you don't use it, you may not have problems most of the time but it is not
safe to remove external drives without using it.

Re: another question about drives

But aren't they still using a small amount of power
to monitor if they are being called on to do something? Also, I don't keep
external drives connected when I don't intend to use them for awhile because
if my computer becomes infected, so may the external drive. As a
security measure, I don't leave them connected.
