  1. Dropbox blocks system restore - Are there logfiles etc.? 0x8007070


    Hi everyone,I have recently tried a system restore. There was maybe a driver related problem with a game.They did not work for several error messages. I have tried it from Windows Boot Screen and when I was logged in. The error messages are in each way a bit different and happening for alle kind of restore points.One time I was logged in and startet system restore and then the restore process took over hours. I am sure that it failed. So I have shut down the computer. After that I have some error messages about not working apps. But because system restore ist not working, I can not undo it.Abo

    :)

  3. Grey x on dropbox files

    Hi

    Welcome to Microsoft community.

    The issue you're experiencing with Dropbox files appearing with a grey X and the error code '0x80070780: The files cannot be accessed by the system' suggests that there may be a problem with file permissions or syncing on your Windows 10 system. Here are some steps you can try to resolve this issue:

    1. Restart Dropbox: First, try restarting the Dropbox application on your Windows 10 computer. Right-click on the Dropbox icon in the system tray (near the clock) and select "Exit" or "Quit." Then relaunch Dropbox from your Start menu or desktop shortcut.
    2. Check File Permissions: Ensure that you have appropriate permissions to access and open the files in question. Right-click on one of the affected files, select "Properties," and navigate to the "Security" tab. Make sure your user account has permission to read and modify the file.
    3. Reinstall Dropbox: If restarting doesn't help, consider reinstalling Dropbox on your Windows 10 computer:
      • Uninstall Dropbox by going to "Control Panel" > "Programs" > "Uninstall a program," selecting Dropbox, and clicking "Uninstall."
      • Download the latest version of Dropbox from their official website.
      • Install it following the prompts provided during installation.
      • Sign in to your Dropbox account when prompted.
    4. Reset File Associations: It's possible that file associations for MP3 files have become corrupted or misconfigured on your Windows 10 system, preventing them from opening properly.
      • Right-click on an MP3 file that is showing a grey X icon.
      • Select "Open With" > "Choose another app."
      • Choose an appropriate media player (e.g., Windows Media Player, VLC) from either the list of recommended apps or by browsing for it.
      • Checkmark "Always use this app to open .mp3 files."
      • Click "OK."
    If none of these steps resolve the issue, I recommend reaching out to Dropbox support again for further assistance as they may have specific troubleshooting steps tailored for this particular issue.

    Please let me know if you need any further assistance. Thank you.

    Best regards

    Dropbox blocks system restore - Are there logfiles etc.? 0x8007070

    LogViewer for GPU-Z available !

    I tried Nvidia Inspector (which is very close to GPU-Z), but it logs with a different column delimiter. With the following steps you can "convert" a Nvidia Inspector logfile into a GPU-Z logfile:

    • open Nvidia Inspector logfile (typically "NVIDIA_Inspector-MonitoringLog_....csv") in a good text-editor (UltraEdit ,...)
    • find/replace column delimiter: find all semicolon ';' and replace them with comma ',' (in a good text editor you can do this in one step "replace all")
    • save changed logfile with extension ".txt"
    Now you can open the saved logfile as a "GPU-Z logfile" !
