    Only write one number to log file and delete old ones?

    Hey,

    I'm trying to have some software read from a .text file a number (GPU Temp) but the software will only the first number in a list (Or the first anything)

    Is there a way to have to log file delete the previous entries and write the new number in it's place without any headers?


    EDIT:

    Sorry I'll try again.

    I have some webcam software that can read a number (or whatever) from a text file and then it displays the number as an overlay.

    See here: http://10.244.193.13:8081/

    I was trying to use GPU-z to do this but as it logs as a list the webcam software can't update properly (also it reads the headings of the file and displays them instead)

    Is there anyway to alter the logging to only output just the number (GPU Temp) and to delete the old numbers so the new value is the only value in the file.

  3. Files Deleted During Failed Windows Update

    If you saved your video projects, they should be on the drive (barring any file system corruption). You can give Recuva a try:

    Accidentally deleted an important file? Lost something important when your computer crashed? No problem! Recuva recovers files deleted from your Windows computer, Recycle Bin, digital camera card, or MP3 player. And it's free!​
    Download the portable version on another PC, unpack it on a flash drive, pop the drive in the trouble machine, and run it off the flash drive. You want to make as few changes to the hard drive as possible before running the recovery program.

  4. New updates deletes some of my important files

    File explorer freezes and Movie maker will not import .avi files

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Community, I understand your concern and we will try to assist you in the best way we can.

    With respect to the issue related to File Explorer, I suggest that you perform the steps mentioned below and check if it still freezes.

    • Go to task manager. (To open press ctrl+alt+delete)
    • Click on Details, select explorer.exe
      and click End Task.
    • Go to file, located on the top left corner of task manager and select
      Run New Task
    • Type explorer.exe and click on OK.

    With respect to the issue with Movie Maker, I would like you to provide the information stated below:

    Did you receive the .avi file or is it locally stored in your system?

    I would suggest that you try to import the file to another software similar to Movie Maker so that we can know if the issue is with the file or the program itself. Also try to import another .avi file and check if you get the same error message

    Your reply is very important to ensure a proper resolution. Please get back to us with the above information in order to assist you accordingly.
