I used EmEditor to do a find and replace in a very large 100GB file, when I try to save it it says "there is not enough space on the disk".
I assume its talking about C:, the file i;m editing is located on D: and there is 757GB free there.
Is there an option I can change to set where temporary files are stored in EmEditor, so I can set it not to use the C:. Some people have said its under Tools > Customize, but I can't see it there

Use the latest Version, since 22.2 there are new settings.

One of my programs stores some information in a .CONFIG file.
I want to change those information for my purposes, but after changing it with an editor, the software does not use this file. Therefore i think i need to keep the meta data of this file in order to be successful.
The evidence, that the software does not use this modified file:
After changing this file (located in program folder) and uninstalling the software, the modified .CONFIG file is not removed.
Maybe i have to say: The .config file is protected. If i want to change it, windows blocks with "access denied". So i have to save it somewhere else, remove the original and copy it to the folder (without success as i already said).
So how to keep those meta information? is there a software which allows to modify it but keeps those information?
Thanks in advance
I'm looking for a editor in windows that constantly saves file.
In linux I do
cat>somefile
and then just start typing. somefile gets filled up as I type.
Is there editor or similar thing in WIndows? Preferably a non-dos tool?
I use WebStorm from JetBrains, which saves constantly and unobtrusively.
I really love it. I use it as a text editor and for my web development.

(and no I don't work there).
Its possible to install some unix features to windows.
Have a look at this CoreUtils
The shareware text editor UltraEdit by default works with using a temporary file which means create a copy of the file to edit in directory %TEMP% and copy this temporary file on save back to original file. The usage of a temporary file makes it possible to use Undo and Redo.
But it is possible at Advanced - Configuration - File Handling - Temporary Files to disable the usage of a temporary file for all files or just for large files depending on a threshold value in KB. All edits made on a file opened without usage of a temporary file are permanent which means immediately done on storage media.
Another feature of UltraEdit is automatic save in regular intervals which can be configured at Advanced - Configuration - File Handling - Save with or without making a backup on every save and even supporting version backups which means backups with an incrementing number on every save.
Last but not least on usage of a temporary file for editing a file as by default UltraEdit can recover last edits if UltraEdit crashes (uedit32.exe process killed with Windows task manager), or Windows crashes, or a sudden power loss occurs. The temporary file is updated quite often in the background by UltraEdit and therefore the restore on next start after an unexpected end of the editing session often restores nearly all edits made last on a file. The recovery feature includes also new files not being saved ever as file with a file name.
It would be interesting to know for offering a perhaps better solution why you want that any edit is immediately written to the file. In general this is the opposite of what users want on editing a text file and is not good on some storage medias like SSD hard disks.
I want to save my SSD from unnecessary write-cycles.
Is there a way to configure Xcode to put temp files to the specified directory on the external drive?
I have the same question about Unity3d and Photoshop.
Is there any general option to configure cache\temporary data location for all soft?
Not sure what temporary data you mean, however you can configure a fair amount of the locations in Xcode.
I configure this specifically to use my ~/tmp folder, where I can see what it's produced, in order to clean-up Derived Data or copy products from the Archive folder, rather than rummage around ~/Library/Application Support/, or wherever the default location is:
I'm using window 8 and I found "mrt.exe._p" file and "mrstub.exe" file other than the drive in which window is installed and it disppear after few minutes. Is it harmful or not?
Thankyou
The files "mrt.exe._p" and mrtstub.exe (72KB) are related to Malicious Software Removal Tool. You can download it from here
It probably isn't a virus, but to be safe search for the files on your computer look into Hidden Folders & Files, right-click go to properties and see if it has the Microsoft Signatures. The most likely reason of it disappearing is because after every scheduled scanning by Malicious Software Removal Tool, the files are suppose to be deleted.
You should also check your logs to determine the last scan performed by MRT.
Ctrl + R (open Run dialog) type: %systemroot%\debug
you probably have a file named, MRT.log. Open it in notepad then check the last time it performed a scan.
If you find that it didn't scan your computer during the period that you found the files, then it could be a virus/malware.
I advice you to install a free anti-virus program, since you don't have an extensive knowledge of how to determine if a file/pc is infected.
You can upload these files to VirusTotal and check them with a lot of different antiviruses.
I need to be able edit the content of index.dat file programmatically (C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Cookies\index.dat). More precisely I need to modify it in order that index.dat for one user can be used for a different user name. Is there any documentation out there for this kind of binary file?
Pasco (http://www.foundstone.com/us/resources/proddesc/pasco.htm) is a free index.dat parser that comes with the source code.
Docs will be hard to come by - Microsoft has never publicly documented the structure of the the structure of this file. That said, you can find docs on the web such as the one mentioned above.
However, note that IE keeps close tabs on this file. The file is locked while IE is running (meaning, you can open/read it in some modes but not in others) and you can certainly not write to it.
One method that might still work is to boot-up in safe mode and then assign yourself administrator rights and then see if you can find the files to delete them.
The method I now use is to create a batch file to rename the subfolder below the folder containing the index.bat files and to then only copy the folders back to the original location that don't contain these files but the resultant batch files needs to be run from a separate windows account that has full administrator permissions.
The freeware code editor PSPad will allow you to view and to edit the contents of all of the index.dat files on your computer in hexadecimal form. This is done by replacing all of the digits in the first eight columns with zeros. This removes all of the information contained in the files.
It's a tedious process, requiring holding down the "0" (zero numeric key) as all of the edits are made, but anyone then accessing any of the index.dat files will get no information.
IE must be closed when doing this or you may receive an error message when attempting to save the modified file(s).
