I'm trying to insert the mercurial_keyring file with my username and password in the .hgrc file but it doesn't exist in my user directory on windows. I have tortoise hg installed and even checked if it was installed properly on the command prompt yet I still don't have the .hgrc folder.
Can anyone tell me what might be the reason to it?
Thanks
Because it's %USERPROFILE%\mercurial.ini
Mercurial reads configuration data from several files, if they exist.
These files do not exist by default and you will have to create the
appropriate configuration files yourself:
Local configuration is put into the per-repository /.hg/hgrc
file.
Global configuration like the username setting is typically put into:
%USERPROFILE%\mercurial.ini (on Windows)
The .hgrc files are not created automatically when you install Mercurial or TortoiseHg.
You will need to manually create it at the location you need whether that is within the repository's .hg folder or your own C:\Users\username\ folder.
You will probably need to use the command line to create the file as it's not usually possible to create filenames that start with . in Windows Explorer.

I have to change my cygwin Local Package Directory, which happen to be earlier as C:\Users\username\Downloads.
Folders like http%3a%2f%2fcygwin.mirror.constant.com%2f are all in place in my new directory for Local Package Directory.
How to do that? (I cannot find, where cygwin stores the config.)
Running setup from new location tries to install all over again instead from continue using earlier packages from the internet.
The information is on /etc/setup/setup.rc
$ head setup.rc
last-cache
e:\downloads\cygwin_cache
last-mirror
http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/
net-method
Direct
last-action
Download,Install
mirrors-lst
....
Please note that setup just propose the settings based on last run but you can always change typing new values.
I am currently working on a Windows batch file that will allow me to silently install git (the executable for which will be placed in the folder that the .bat file will be running from) in a pre-specified location on the file system.
I've found this article which seems to provide some suitable advice:
https://github.com/msysgit/msysgit/wiki/Silent-or-Unattended-Installation
However, I'm not entirely sure what parameters I would need to mention in my LOADINF file. I would like to pre-define the options that the user would manually select throughout the various stages of installation, so that it can run through from start to finish without prompting anything from the user.
Can anyone help or point me to a place where I can find these parameters and their available values?
Create a file, for eg. my-config.cnf (or my-config.ini) with the following content:
[Setup]
Lang=default
Dir=C:\Program Files (x86)\Git
Group=Git
NoIcons=0
SetupType=default
...
<other options as shown in the msysgit wiki>
Now, in the batch file, when you execute the installation file (say msysgit-install.exe), use /LOADINF as follows:
msysgit-install.exe /SILENT /LOADINF="my-config.cnf"
I want to open certain folders and files using run command.
I know that creating a shortcut for the required file or folder and placing it in the System32 folder will do the task. However i don't like to use System32 folder.
I would like to know if it is possible to create a folder under local hard disk and put the shortcuts into that and i would route it some how such that i would be able to open the apps and the files directly by typing the name of the shortcut into the run window.
Setting any Environment Variables would help?
Adding the folder to the PATH variable solved the issue.
As correctly answered by a_horse_with_no_name.
I've got ftp connections list in phpDesigner.
How to export or to save it?
you can find the ftp xml file in:
C:\Users\your user dir\AppData\Roaming\phpDesigner
phpdesigner_ftp.xml
For Windows XP users (and I assume they still exist in numbers!)... the Path is:
C:\Documents and Settings\[Windows-User]\Application Data\phpDesigner
For example, I've Windows User account with the name "Ruturaaj". So, my path looks like:
C:\Documents and Settings\Ruturaaj\Application Data\phpDesigner
It's quite handy to know this folder because it contains some other useful XML files as well. For example, look for "autocomplete.xml". This is the file that contains all Auto-Complete code snippets you've added to phpDesigner over a period of time. Now that you know this folder path, I'd suggest to backup this folder and simply overwrite the files with new installation to setup same environment over and over again.
when i save java file error is you dont have permission to save in this location contact the administrator to obtain permission on window7
Don't store application data in the "Program Files" directory.
It is very bad design and regular users don't have write access to that directory (for a very good reason).
So even if you changed your settings locally to open up the door for viruses your application won't run on other computers.
Besides: storing a Java file in the JDK directory serves no purpose at all.
Btw: your uppercase letters are broken, as well as the dot or the comma...
That's normal - jdk/bin is the installation directory of the JDK, regular users cannot (and should not) write files there. You'll have the same problem on Linux/Unix and on Mac OS X, where installation directories are off-limits to regular users.
Write your files to the users home directory (System property "user.home", works across platforms), or let the user choose where you save stuff.
Bin directory do not allow directly to save program in it.
it is so simple, just save your .java file on desktop and then copy paste it in Bin. done ;)
If the file can't save directly to c:\program files\java\jdk1.8.0\bin\
Solution:-
Click start Menu type Notepad command in run run as administrator
Right click the Notepad run as Administrator, then type the program file can save directly to c:\program files\java\jdk1.8.0\bin\
Just try it......
