Volume Snapshot Services error

Volume Shadow Copies (VSS or also known as Volume Snapshot Services) is the technology used to perform snapshot and backup of system files and user data files at a specific time at regular interval. The incremental backup or snapshot by Shadow Copy is then used by System Restore or Previous Versions feature in Windows to restore Windows to previous state or recover deleted or altered files and folders.

When enabled and running properly, Shadow Copy service will backup almost everything on the drives. And Shadow Copy, which commonly known as System Restore accessible by System Protection in Vista System Properties is turned on by default on system drive. Thus, various System Restore Points created will save copies system and user data files incrementally in Shadow Copy repositories.

The existence of backup copies of files and folders in another location in VSS repositories may bring several issues. Firstly, for users who don’t use Previous Versions or System Restore features, or those (users of Home Premium and Home Basic editions of Vista) who can’t access shadow copies of user data files, keeping these files is wasting disk space. Secondly, Shadow Copies may potentially leak trace and record of sensitive and private files or documents.

The first issue can be solved by disabling the Shadow Copy (or commonly known as System Restore). And for users who just want to keep some private confidential data out of the reach of been monitored and backed up can exclude files from Shadow Copies. MSDN Library describes how to using registry key to exclude files from Shadow Copies by deleting the selected files from shadow copy during creation.

Using the FilesNotToSnapshot Registry Key to Exclude Files from Shadow Copy

Files can be deleted from a shadow copy during shadow copy creation by using the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\BackupRestore\FilesNotToSnapshot

This registry key has REG_MULTI_SZ (multi string) values for each application whose files can be excluded. The files are specified by fully qualified paths, which can contain the * wildcard. If a fully qualified cannot be specified, then a path can also be implied by using the $UserProfile$ or $AllVolumes$ variable. For example:

* UserProfile$\Directory\Subdirectory\FileName.*
* $AllVolumes$\TemporaryFiles\*.*

To make the path recursive, append ” /s” to the end. For example:

* $UserProfile$\Directory\Subdirectory\FileName.* /s
* $AllVolumes$\TemporaryFiles\*.* /s

In all cases, the entry is ignored if there are no files that match the path string. Note that the exclusion (or rather the deletion of the files from the Shadow Copy repository during creation by the shadow copy optimization writer) of the files been added to the appropriate registry key value, is on a best-effort basis.

wii cheats

The Wii Sports video game was developed and produced by Nintendo for the Wii video game console and was included as a with the Wii console for its launch in all territories except Japan. This video game is part of an ongoing series of games commonly referred to as the Wii Series.

Wii Sports is a collection of five sports simulations. Players use the Wii Remote to mimic actions performed in real life sports, such as swinging a baseball bat, for example. The sports included are baseball,tennis, golf, bowling and boxing.

Here are some of the Wii Sports cheat codes:

Wii Sports Unlockable: Special Bowling Ball You must achieve pro level on the bowling game.

Wii Sports Unlockable: Tennis court: At the warning screen after selecting characters, hold down 2.

Wii Sports Hint - Barrier Strike For the 'Power Throws' training game in bowling, turn either left or right until there are four red bars pointing in the direction of your choice across the bowling line. This may not always work, especially with the big numbers of pins but this will almost always give you a strike. Feel free to experiment with different numbers of red bars across the bowling line since three and four almost always work for me.

Wii Sports Hint - 91 Strike In the "Power Throws" training game for bowling, you might notice 2 red buttons at the end of the alley - 1 left and 1 right. When you get to the final bowl for 91 pins, you can bowl the ball along the top of the barrier on either side and hit this button.

Move your Mii all the way to the left or right, and turn the aim 2 or 3 clicks towards the barrier. Let go of the ball at the highest point possible, with just a bit of spin to keep the ball on the barrier.

If successful, you will hear a click, the screen will shake and all the pins will fall down.

Wii Sports Mii Parade You can add more Miis in Parade and audiences. Use Wii Sports to do it:

1. Make about 10 Mii's.

2. Transfer those Mii's to your Wiimote.

3. Delete the Mii's that are transfered to the Wiimote out of the plaza.

4. Start up Wii Sports.

5 When given the option of which Mii to use during gameplay choose the option to get the Mii from the Wii Remote.

6. After viewing the Mii's on the Wiimote back out by using the B button.

7. Exit out of Wii Sports and back onto the Wii Menu.

Now check the Mii parade and all 10 of the Miis that were on the Wiimote are in the parade. Now if you dont want the Miis on the Wiimote just delete them off. These Miis will now show up in all Wii Sports games that have an audience.

Wii Sports Bowling Ball Color Change You can select your bowling ball color before you bowl by using the directional pad. When you reach the screen warning, 'Make sure nothing is around you', hit the A button and hold the D-pad (until the alley UI appears) to choose your color: UP = blue LEFT = red DOWN = green RIGHT = yellow

Download Wii Games

The Nintendo Wii has quickly become one of the most sought after video game systems ever launched. For months it was sold out everywhere and was considered one of the toughest finds for the Christmas seasons. One of the most exciting features of the Nintendo Wii is that you can download Wii games for immediate use instead of having to go to store each time you want a new game.

Many Nintendo Wii owners aren't exactly sure where to find downloads for their system, so we thought we would first go over the two main options you have for downloading Wii games.

Option #1

There are some websites that claim to offer "free Wii game downloads". These sound great at first, however you need to keep a couple of things in mind before you rush to download anything.

The first problem with these websites is that they are full of viruses and spyware. Since they are not monitored whatsoever a good chunk of the files on them contain some infection.

Another irritating problem is that these websites have extremely slow download speeds and many of the game files don't actually work. You can find yourself waiting over a day for a download to finish only to discover that the game doesn't even work. Very frustrating!

It's a great sounding option when you first hear about it, but it's not something we recommend. It's risky and can waste a lot of your time!

Option #2

The second option is quickly becoming a popular option for Nintendo Wii owners and is much more convenient that the first. You can download just about any Wii game without ever having to worry about viruses or files that don't work.

You can find specialty Nintendo Wii download websites that allow you to download games, movies, TV shows and music when you sign up as a member. They charge a registration fee (about $50) which gives you a lifetime membership that lets you download as many games and other files as you want.

The businesses that run these websites are doing it to make money, so they do what it takes to keep their customers happy. The download speeds are fast, all of the files work and they have a huge amount of games and movies to choose from.

When you sign-up as a member all the software you need to be able to use the files on your Wii is included. You can go to http://www.my-wii-downloads.com if you want to learn how to get a free trial at a couple of the top-ranked Wii download websites. You can expect to take about 5-10 minutes to get set-up.

These websites have grown extremely popular and are a great option for people that want to build up a big selection of Wii games. The membership fee isn't expensive and you can download a game or movie whenever you want.

As the Nintendo Wii becomes more and more popular, we can only imagine that Wii download websites will also grow in popularity. It's an easy way to find new games and movies for your system whenever you feel like trying something new. Happy gaming!
