1. Be able to schedule a restart in several hours periodically (not only daily)
2. Be able to schedule a restart in safe mode, and then other two hours later in normal mode.
Perhaps something you can use the built-in Windows Task Scheduler for?

Just too complicated for me. I want automation with AHK or any other script. A complete and powerful script without the knowledge and sacrifice a programmer needs.....

 :-[

What would you be using this for?

It seems the capital question. To depure the system , I think.
Nevertheless I would like to try the process is not illegal.....
 :P

In the past I think I have tried to reenter in safe mode. We have to modify the msconfig I think.
I usually use Restart because I have so many times installed windows xp pro in the same pc, and ubuntu, as you may know.
What I am looking for is a flexible tool. But don't ask me the exact purpose because I only imagine.
I have six systems under xp. Suppose I want to do some task depending on the system, because each system is specialized.
I am trying at these moments windows 8 because possibly my future pc will goes with multiple virtual machines under w8. But i will continue with xp pro in the backfront.

 :-[

I usually don't turn off my pc's. They are all the day on.
I have read the system degenerated after many hours turn on.
Depuring the system if often in safe mode.

so perhaps you have an idea what i am looking for, but I would to know is possible anyway.

To depure the system.

No ? . Don't worry. It's just a task.

Dual Restart Program

I would like a snack to assure :

1 Reinitiate the system at a time preconfigured in safe mode
2. Assure all processed will be killed, even in a damaged system. restart assured
3. Enter in safe mode
4. Stay in safe mode for 30 minutes
5. Restart to normal mode

Best Regards

I have found this one :

Wise AutoShutDown

But I would like :
1. Be able to schedule a restart in several hours periodically (not only daily)
2. Be able to schedule a restart in safe mode, and then other two hours later in normal mode.

 :-*
2982
I would like the most complete scripts for this purpose :

With these possibilities
- system restarts programmed each 20 minutes
- option to restarts in safe mode and program this option
- option to succesive restarts or even shutdowns if possible.
- restart and launch after some minutes a special program for that occasion.
etc.

What is the best ?
P.D. Not languages please, AHK is the best of course.

Best Regards

Finished Programs / DONE: Difficult Finder
« Last post by Contro on September 24, 2012, 04:23 PM »
Difficult Finder

Open a folder in a path predefined.
Open a folder inside a folder proposing his name after invoking the script by a definable hotkey.

I would like a snack for :

1. Using a hotkey run a script that open a window to propose the name of a subfolder
2. All the subfolders are from a given path . By example : Y:\GABINETE\PROYECTOS\
3. If the subfolder exists open the folder. If not simply return.

By example

I wish to open the subfolder 206

That is
Y:\GABINETE\PROYECTOS\206

P.D. I have a more difficult situation . I want to open all the subfolders from a list of paths is exists.
By example : I wish to open the subfolder 206 proposing its name in a window invoked by a hotkey.
Then open in these paths if exist :
Y:\Example\Path1\
Y:\engineer\path2\
......
y:\conta\


That is. Open if exist :
Y:\example\path1\206\
Y:\engineer\path2\206
......
y:\conta\206

I would like a fast script.

Thanks

What I use for finding tagged/personalized files is WordPerfect

Take this into consideration. Almost any home scanner comes with a lite version and free with the scanner of a indexing software. And able to recognize the file properties more usual.
So I would like a free soft for this purpose.

Ejem for the indexing fields scanned.
It's a new world.
Scan a document and index with the OCR mantaining the original document.
I think is the system follows Qiqqa.
We have in the forum a good defender of Qiqqa.
I hope he sees this post.

I've been looking for similar needs.
You might take a look at Exiftool and ExiftoolGUI.
http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/
It is more for use with photo and camera metadata but can also access some document metadata. They also have an active forum that may be of help.

Another that may be of help is Benubird http://www.debenu.com/products/desktop/debenu-pdf-benubird/.
I haven't tried it yet but there have been some discussion/postings here in the forum regarding it.


I haven't try, but have microsoft word any utility to search for metadata ?

I use word xp or 2002.
I don't remember now.

 :P

I do not have the laptop with the program with me right now. But will check in the morning and let you know.
One thing I found in my search is that all metadata is not created equal. The term is used universally with programs but how the information (comments, descriptions, captions, etc) is saved varies. The Wikipedia page on metadata gives more detail and a better explanation than I can.

Another program I read about earlier today is Imatch at http://www.photools.com
It has also been discussed here in the forums a few times. I also checked in their forum section and it looks like it can do pdf's and maybe Word documents. And they say a new beta version is coming out in a while with more features. It isn't free but is much more reasonably priced than other programs I looked at. If it does what I need it will be worth it.


I am studying this question.
I think in this post the best way is limit to the fields windows give : summary properties, word file properties, photo exif properties. Really I think is enough with the general properties.

Paperport seems to use these general fields.

Maybe not quite what you're after, but you can use my PDFInfoGUI app to see PDF metadata.

http://skwire.dcmemb.../fp/?page=pdfinfogui

skwire your program give me the idea before I began the target of the office without papers....
Or even automate accountings capturing the properties metadata.

The interesting point is one soft for all type of files and folders.
Able to search in an entire disk
Locate32 does, but not in the metadata.

I'll try.
I was thinking about Paperport, Qiqqa, and all those programs related to scan works and asking for these parameters after scan or indexing documents.

Where are those keys ?

I haven't tried to do such searches, but I suspect that File Locator Pro could handle metadata searches.  I know that it has a setting to "search raw document data of processed files," and it's got many other settings for finding things other search programs can't handle.  There's also a freeware version, Agent Ransack, but I doubt that it has the same range of features.

Trying
First I will try if File locator is able to filter all files whose author is JPR inside a folder.

I will comment.
Best Regards

My comments : No. I don't see the programs (Filelocatorpro or agentransack) search for the author of a document (pdf, doc, xls, etc.) or even search inside a field in the summary fields. By example resume/comments.

I am trying to find a soft for (windows xp pro):

Find all the file whose Author is :
Or contain determined metadata : comment, keywords....

By example find pdf with "psi" in the summary properties.

Exists ?

Best Regards
 :P

Is there a way to conduct a search of document "properties"? My goal is to
place information or keywords in a document's properties and then be able
later to search and find all documents of that type.

-----
I have several files whose filename is not adequately descriptive, so I've
entered values for the 'Title' and 'Comments' fields in the Summary tab of
those files' Properties. How can I search on those fields? I see no way to
do it in Windows Explorer. Thanks.

General Software Discussion / Restore System configuration units
« Last post by Contro on September 09, 2012, 01:56 PM »
As you may know as a result of intensive trauma with windows xp pro some years ago I have six times installed this system in differents partitions on the same pc, and in each pc I have.
 :-[

When I need to restore a restoration point I need to revise the units i am monitoring for not affect my other systems.
So I usually only affect the main partition (that where the system is)
But for several reasons sometimes the units are supervised without my knowledge (hardware changes, etc....)
So I would like an utility to manage ease those inconveniences.

At the present moment the system was disconfigurated for a reason I don't know.

General Software Discussion / Re: Modify the windows registry
« Last post by Contro on September 08, 2012, 09:06 PM »
I'm with f0dder.  
Think it was Win2K, I imported a hive, but I was not at a top-level position.  The hive imported to my then-current location.  I went about what I was doing, but neglected to delete the import when finished - as I was reminded on the next reboot.  Poor Windows got very confused.  Took me forever to find that imported hive again and remove it - I just could not remember where I was when I imported it.  But, until it was removed, that particular machine had some very strange boots.  The wonder is that it booted at all.

I have looked in my database. Some years ago from the hand of a MVP Daniel Martín I tried some times. Sometimes goes well, sometimes goes bad.
I used for repair the registry and enter in the damaged system. But sometimes I could't enter.
At the present time I have mirror copies and have plenty of solutions.
the last time I lose the boot.ini..... :-[ and make a recovery with bootcfg /rebuild
