General Software Discussion / Re: Software similar to fences from stardock for w7.64

Run the exe. It will offer you some rectangle combinations like templates, either use them or ignore them and create your own places.

If you choose one of the templates you can copy and paste files and folders into the places.

If you want to create your own places, right click the tray icon and choose 'Places settings'. Use the + sign and browse to the file or folder you want.

(Folders with lots sub folders and files will take a while to appear and explorer.exe may even crash)

The rectangles are crystal type ? I refer is are invisible or not because of the background wallpaper.

Well, Fences itself has been spun off for Windows 7.

IIRC, the free version's main limitation is that it can't sort new icons automatically, and there is a paid version that remedies that.

I need the alternative. The more similar one to Fences.

General Software Discussion / Re: Program restarts, hibernations and shut downs software

« Last post by Contro on October 07, 2012, 03:19 PM »

This is from the help file about Cyclic Rebooting.  You would need to set up the Auto-Login section and enable it, then set up a shortcut in your Startup folder to the program, making sure to include the -Reboot option.  Then set the number of reboots you want on the screen and click Reboot Now to start...


"This page gives a brief description of how a PC can be set-up to reboot itself in a cycle.

Step1 – Select and save Rebooter settings
Start Rebooter and use the “Clear” button to return the reboot count to 0.
Set the ‘Maximum Reboots’ value to the number of cycles required.  <--- MY NOTE: how many times you want to reboot
Set the other parameters in Rebooter. (Reboot type, Delay, etc). Don’t set the delay value to be too short, as you want Windows to fully boot before starting the next cycle. 20 Seconds is a good value.   <--- MY NOTE: you may want it to be longer than 20 seconds!
Save the settings, with the ‘Save Options’ button.

Step2 – Create an autorun shortcut
Create an autorun short cut that points back to Rebooter executable. See the auto-run page for help on how to do this. The shortcut must use the  ‘-Reboot’ command line parameter.

Step3 – Start the cycle
Click on the “Reboot Now” button to start the cycle.

Each time Rebooter is started with the ‘–Reboot’ command line parameter, the reboot counter in incremented. Once the reboot counter becomes equal to the Maximum Reboots value no further cycles will be executed and the reboot counter will be reset to zero (ready for the next run).

This perhaps was the important question I suggest at the beginning and now I have the opportunity to try modifying the boot.ini and reboots. Because logically this soft goes through the existing boot.ini.
With more or less effort, thank to your effort of course, I am beginning to get the target.

Bingoooooooooooooooooo
Eurekaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa


multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(\WINDOWS="ST System Technics" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /safeboot:minimal /noguiboot

This line give me the opportunity of enter in safe mode basic.

What can I automate this without need each time of modify boot.ini ?¿?¿?¿?¿¿

My boot.ini is up in this same post.
 

Ath. Your program works wonderful. and I am going to try to modify that line I put before through your soft.

There are lots of programs to do pieces of the things you want, but nothing I know of that puts them all together.

* Scheduled reboots by Poweroff
* Multiple reboots by Rebooter
* Boot into safe mode by BootSafe

Poweroff at least has a very good command line so you could script most of its actions as desired.

I am trying to understand Passmark rebooter. Seems very interesting, but I don't understand the 15 secs.

My system last a little more to load, or even in closing.

How can I cycle ?

Ja Dutch. Wonderful.
I have tried and see the lines of my boot.ini are editable. So perhaps if I will remember how to put the modifier to begin in safe mode.

/safemode ?¿?¿?¿?¿

Note : the program is similar to Restart, but more complete.

BootSafe don't go in my systems.
I think is because is not prepared to manage boot.ini with multiple systems.

This is the mine :

[boot loader]
timeout=3
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(\WINDOWS="ST System Technics" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /noguiboot
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(3)\WINDOWS="SP System Proofs" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /noguiboot /BOOTLOGO
C:\CMDCONS\BOOTSECT.DAT="Microsoft Windows Recovery Console" /cmdcons
UnsupportedDebug="do not select this" /debug
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(10)\WINDOWS="AM Alcanzar M" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /noguiboot
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="SO System Ocium" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /noguiboot
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(4)\WINDOWS="STo System Tomas" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /noguiboot
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(5)\WINDOWS="SG System General" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /noguiboot
C:\wubildr.mbr="Ubuntu"

I think in the past I have modified this boot.ini and add a modifier in the line of the system I want in safe mode. I remember was easy to do this and after modify the boot.ini again.

Is it possible a AHK script to do this ?

Best Regards

Understood.
Then the good application may be that one that locate all the chains whose lenght is > 255 chrs.
A good one for that ?

-Contro (October 03, 2012, 09:51 PM)

Attached is my mod of TLPD.  It accepts length in the range 4 to 32767 chars. At the end, a text file pops up with a report. I just modified the original to use UNC notation so that it could search for longer paths. Also changed the InputBox a bit.  The AutoIt3 source is included.

edit: Please refer all questions about the operation of the program, such as InjectEnvVars() to the original author on SourceForge.  All I did was modify the check() and InputBox routines to accept longer paths. For best results I suggest running my mod with no command line args.  Just enter all info using the dialog boxes. I don't think I tested it using the environment variable injection stuff.

Then we can manually short that ones.

Really I use syncback to sync folders between my pc's and usually shorten, but I would a solution before I have that problem.....

But I think exist or seen a lot of utilities for this purpose.
Sometimes goes when the files we received inside folders. We import a organization folder with files inside and we have this problem.
So I would a soft for this purpose. An utility.

Is it possible ?
