On windows XP, I easily replace the corrupted shimgvw.dll with the original so that I could recover the problem of displaying the picture on thumbnail view and opening it with windows fax viewer.
But I can't replace shimgvw.dll on windows 7. I have tried replacing from safe mode with command prompt, but I can't.
Is there any command-line(like sudo of LINUX) to break security so that windows 7 will allows us to replace the file on system32 folder?
Are you programmer?
MoveFileEx
Or you can use
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionManager\FileRenameOperations
registry key.
Or you can use Sysinternals PendMoves

I would like to automate running a custom batch file when a user logins to Windows 8? Is it possible?
Thanks,
Racoon
Yes, using the Task Scheduler. Here's a resource I found by Googling this (It also applies to Windows 8, though of course the interface is different): http://www.thewindowsclub.com/how-to-schedule-batch-file-run-automatically-windows-7

I've read many articles about using wevutil.exe and it seems to be exactly what I need. However, I cannot find it. I've tried on a Windows 2003 server, Windows 2008 server, Windows 7, etc. All come back with "'wevutil' is not recognized as an internal or external command". TechNet (which has docs on using it) doesn't list a download point so I assume it is provided with Windows?
I think you just misspelled, it's actually WevtUtil, and is located in C:\Windows\System32.

Which Windows 7 file(s) are critical for booting?
In other words, what is the shortest way to irreversibly dismantle a Windows 7 instance via a batch script, assuming we have root privileges?
I googled a bit, but I found ambiguous information.
*I'm asking this out of curiousity - not to do evil deeds.
The thing about booting files is that all of them can easily be restored. If you want to irreveribly degrade Windows about the only thing you can do is destroy the registry files. See this link for the location of the registry archives.

All,
I have one firefox installation at work that has specific add-ons, each add-on having it's own preferences and history/data.
Is there a tool/steps to move the entire data to my personal PC, so that I do not have to set-up everything all over again?
My workstation is Windows XP SP3
and
my personal PC is Windows 7, professional, 64bit.
Thanks
Open your Explorer and type in: %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\
If you didn't create another profile there should be one folder with ".default" at the end of it's name. Just copy this folder to the same directory on your desktop pc.
Have fun :)

How to set the default program for opening files without an extension in Windows?
I am running Windows 7 x64 and when double clicking on a file with no extension, I would like it to automatically open in notepad rather than bring up the "Open with" window. Does anyone know how to do this?
