windows-7

[EDITED to avoid duplications] I posted this question and in trying to diagnose what is going on have become curious about the magic UAC that happens in the OS. (especially since it seems different on the two platforms. Can anyone confirm or refute this? Our unmanaged c++ program causes the "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?" to pop up at program start - even before it gets to our winmain. It appears that there is some kind of test done by the PE loader/launcher/whatever before our app code runs that decides for itself if it should ask for elevation.

I have python 3.4 and ipython 2.3.1 installed on Windows 7. I installed ipython using pip from a wheel from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ (Thanks, Chris!). This install procedure does not create any start menu shortcuts, even when run as administrator. I can successfully run "ipython qtconsole" from a cmd window, but then I have to have that command window open and the process doesn't fork--it's just and extra window hosting the child process. If I create a shortcut to do the same, it opens a cmd window which then opens the qtconsole. So, how do I start qtconsole without having an

I know that shutdown -a will abort a Windows shutdown, but I need to know if there is anything any where I can check for to see if a shutdown is in progress. Ideally, I'd like a small program like this: import os while True: shuttingDown = <shutdown variable to check> if shuttingDown: os.system("shutdown.exe -a") For preventing a Windows shutdown when it is happening, you can react to the WM_QUERYENDSESSION message (don't know if you can do that easily with Python's win32 API but it's simple in C). This might not prevent applications from closing because Windows sends WM_ENDSESSION to those

Scenario: A UI Interface element appears to use a different font on US English Windows 7 Enterprise compared to "Chinese" Windows 7 Enterprise even with all localization packs and languages set to English. In the WinForms codebehind, the FontFamily is not explicitly defined and relies on the defaults. English: Chinese: Several questions: 1) What is the font used in the Chinese Windows? 2) What is different about such an install that would cause it to use that font? 3) How do I set up an environment to replicate this? Is it an install time option on Windows 7 that one does not get when

I'm new to MySQL so please guide me through how to do this via command line; I've tried but I get NO logging in the console output and the character set is not utf-8 Please help. Kerrek SB Since your SQL script doesn't contain any character set configuration directives, mysql just runs in its default character set Latin1. To change the default character set, start mysql like this: mysql -e "source /path-to-backup/backup-file.sql" db_name --default-character-set=UTF8 mysql -e "source /path-to-backup/backup-file.sql" db_name or mysql db_name < backup-file.sql You probably need -u username -p ,

I am trying to calculate sha1 hash for some of the files from location %system%\drivers\ using C#. I know files are at the exact location but when i use FILE.Exists("c:\\Windows\\System32\\Drivers\\1394ohci.sys") it always retuns false. C:\Users\administrator>dir c:\Windows\System32\drivers\1394ohci.sys Volume in drive C has no label. Volume Serial Number is 5A4F-1E60 Directory of c:\Windows\System32\drivers 11/21/2010 08:53 AM 229,888 1394ohci.sys 1 File(s) 229,888 bytes 0 Dir(s) 19,521,245,184 bytes free C:\Users\administrator>fciv -sha1 c:\Windows\system32\drivers\1394ohci.sys // // File

It it actually possible to get XCOPY to append, as per http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/xcopy.mspx?mfr=true To append files, specify a single file for destination, but multiple files for source (that is, by using wildcards or file1+file2+file3 format). ? Neither wildcards or file1+file2+file3 format works for me. Workaround (sometimes): Use COPY instead. If I get it right, you want to merge files into one. For text files I would use: FOR /R %%f in (file*) DO TYPE %%f >> bigfile 来源： https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25548431/getting-xcopy-to
