lost files
qaz:
g/morning
am at it again. tried to make another PE on memory stick but got an error . i think its related to the fact that if i try to make a new folder on desktop or move a file into one i get error: cant find item. no longer located in c: desktop. verify location and try again. when i try again it always succeeds
in properties the folder appears to be on c: even before i "try again"
any ideas appreciated
thanks

Reboot and try the pe onto the USB again without doing anything else.
I assume the program allows for the pe to be put onto an USB ?
qaz:
its called a pe builder , i saw no option to put on usb.
but i fixed the "no longer located in c: desktop." by restoring registry in win tweaking, i recall make changes i didn't fully understand.
anyway im back to the error when trying to install pe builder, error msg: error while trying to rename file in destination directory. move file failed. try again
Boggin:
Let's see if you can make a bootable USB from the PE disk using Diskpart.
This article will walk you through the steps, but first check that the drive can read the disk by inserting it to see if it comes up in Windows Explorer and then double clicking on its drive to open to the files.

retraced my steps, am trying to put pe on a bootable usb stick but no luck, [apparently it can be done] . cant install pe environment either , do u know what it is and whether i need it?
i should be able to do these surely even if i take ur advice and put the pe disc un usb using Diskpart
thanx
