This is probably really simply and obvious, but I'm not very familiar with Filezilla and can't afford a mistake.
I need to copy a file from the server to my desktop without actually removing it from the server - the live site needs to remain live as it currently stands. There is no "Copy" option, so I'm wondering if "Download" is the option I need to use.. but I need to ensure that "Downloading" the files will not actually remove them from the server.
Basically, I need to save a copy of the site without actually disturbing or disrupting it online.

Open fileZilla, Connect to your server, you will see Remote Site and Local site. Navigate to your desktop on local site window( this will change the location where the file will be downloaded). Double click/(right click and select download) on the file you want to download on the remote site window.

Selecting "Download" or doubleclicking the file will not delete it from the server.

Try to select the folder or the file, and drop it on your desktop folder on the left side !
It should be good !

I'm a high school kid who's clueless about computing. I need to use PLINK on my MacBook for a bioinformatics project but I'm not sure how to even run it after downloading it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Firstly, you have to have jre or jdk installed. You can download jdk 8 (my preferred one) from the link. Just select the MacOS tab, and proceed.
Once downloaded, double-click to install.
Then, you have to download the application zip (here).
Extract it.
Double click on the gPLINK.jar in the extracted folder. If you faced an error, do the following: Open System Preferences> navigate to Security & Privacy icon > click on the lock icon below and enter password if required >on General tab, allow the program to be run.
Now the program must be launched successfully. You can move the .jar file to a desirable location, so that you will not forget where it was located.

I've been trying to delete this extremely stubborn folder and nothing seems to work. First I tried the disk cleanup tool in the windows control panel, then CCleaner, and finally followed by a barrage of cmd tricks. I think one of the sub-files located under System32 is corrupt, because when I go to delete it normally I get the "The system could not find the specified item..." error. I even tried taking ownership of all files and folders within Windows.old, but was STILL denied access! Please help!
It's pretty simple to remove:
Click in Windows' search field, type Cleanup, then click Disk Cleanup.
Click the "Clean up system files" button.
Wait a bit while Windows scans for files, then scroll down the list until you see "Previous Windows installation(s)."
Select Previous Windows installation and anything else you want to remove and select OK.
If you've made all these attempts to remove it already though, you may have broken Windows ability to remove the folder.

I have a situation here.
I want to hide a folder from a specific user in Windows Seven.
This is not just a simple hide. I want to hide the folder from other 'Standard Users' (not administrator) logging into the system in such a way that they don't even know the existence of the folder.
I found that if a folder is hidden by administrator, then if the standard user enables 'Show hidden files and folders', the folder becomes visible. Well, they cannot access the contents due to permissions, that is fine.
But what I want is even if the standard user enables 'Show hidden files and folders' windows will not show the hidden folder to them. I want the folder to be seen by administrator only.
This does not necessarily mean that I have to 'hide' it.
I want to setup something which will allow only the administrator to know that the folder exists.
Is this at all possible?
If its possible please share the knowledge on how it is possible.
Thanks in advance.

I use Win7 and usually I put some files on my desktop so that I can access them easily. But I like to backup files on other driver instead of drive C. So I want to find a way that I can put those files on my desktop while they are stored on D drive. Is it possible and how to do? Thanks!
I hope to access them easily: means that they can be saw directly on desktop.
You could tweak registry settings with earlier versions of Windows so that the USER directory is located on other drives: that is no longer the case since Windows 7.
The closest you can come to doing what you want to do is placing your files on the D: drive, and dragging a shortcut onto your Desktop (you can also create a symbolic link to your desktop directory, but that's more trouble, and there's no real advantages).
Perhaps a safer alternative is to use the vanilla Windows functionality, but use one of the online backup services like Mozy to keep the files safe.
You can put the files onto your D drive and right click on each file and click "Send To" then click "Desktop(create shortcut)".
