Annoying windows error | SMA disease

It’s been a while since the last post but I’m still here. Callister is having some problem with her laptop and sent it for repair, luckily it’s still under warranty so no money going out there (hopefully). At the mean time, I did some major overhaul on the theme for Callister, you can check it out and comment on how you like the theme and ease of navigation. Still needs some minor tweaking but basically, everything is almost there.

I also put up a new blog just for email forwards that I would love to share with you guys. Maybe we can have laughs once in a while. Check it out at www.berceloteh.com and I got a forum up and running too but I haven’t had the time to manage it yet. Currently I’m busy dealing with Sembang Komputer’s forum but you can check the forum here at forum.berceloteh.com.

Back to the main post, I know a lot of the guys out there use Windows, probably Windows XP and some have upgrade to Windows Vista. I never use Vista because I don’t really like the idea of having Vista in the first place.

Anyway, let’s cut the crap and I know you guys have some problems with Windows once in a while, and it’s impossible to list down all of the common errors in this entry. Well, at least let me share something that is quite annoying that happened from time to time on my Windows XP laptop.

Sometimes when you cut and paste some folders, you will get an error in the end like this one:

I know it’s frustrating to have this kind of errors. Let’s say we move a folder named Folder X from location A to location B. The progress bar is ticking slowly and finally all the files in Folder X has been transferred to
location B but you got this message in the end. Although you check the folder X in location A, the folder is empty but you still can’t delete it with the same error.

What you can do is download the Unlocker program here. Install the program and it should automatically add the program shortcut in the Windows explorer. The next time you encounter this kind of problem, just simply right click on the folder and select Unlocker as the picture below.

And it should prompt another box that should look like this:

Please click the picture if you want to have a closer look. At the bottom left, you should see a list of actions that you can select. In this case, I selected “delete” and I just click “Unlock All”. Unlocker will remove any Windows program associated with the folder and delete it for you. You should received a notification that shows the operation is successful such as this:

And that’s it, you’re annoying Windows error is gone. In case you’re wondering if Unlocker can be used for other types of errors, here’s a list of errors you might encounter.

• Cannot delete file: Access is denied

• There has been a sharing violation.

• The source or destination file may be in use.

• The file is in use by another program or user.

• Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use.

And I just read Noktah Hitam latest’s post on signing an online petition for Spinal Muscular Atrophy (or SMA for short). You can join and sign the online petition here.

I’ve done my fair share of the petition, so why wait? Maybe this could here our next generation? Why bother about world health if our children and our descendants can’t live in the healthy world healthily ??

Must read : How poor can someone get?

Do you ever wonder how poor someone can get? I can’t really answer that but I got something to show you. This is a story on a real Malaysian people, living somewhere we’re familiar but we never noticed. First of all, take a look at the picture below.

Below is the email describing how poor the family is:

Assalamualaikum wrb,
Tuan/puan yang yang budiman dan prihatin,
Anak perempuan saya murid Tahun 5 (5 Iltizam) SRK Taman Melawati 2 selalu balik menceritakan tentang kisah sedih kawan sekelas dia yang terpaksa duduk dalam ‘khemah’ kerana tiada rumah setelah rumah setinggannya di robohkan. Mula- mula saya tidak berapa ambil kisah kerana anggapan saya, mana la ada di kawasan Ulu Klang/Melawati keluarga Melayu sebegitu susah, sekurang-kurangnya ada rumah. Tetapi cuti minggu lepas, saya telah dibawa sendiri oleh anak saya untuk melihat khemah dan keadaan keluarga tersebut di Ulu Klang bertentangan dengan Zoo Negara.

Memang amat menyedihkan sekali keadaan keluarga ini, En Zamri seorang guard di Puncak Niaga Klang gate, mempunyai 5 orang anak (15,14,11, 6 & 4tahun) memang tinggal dalam khemah dhaif (sebesar partition Manager kat PETRONAS) tanpa elektrik dan cuma bilik air buatan sendiri. Isteri tidak dapat bekerja kerana ada anak kecil 4 tahun walaupun ingin bekerja. Kepada sesiapa yang hendak lihat sendiri khemah keluarga ini boleh Nampak dari Highway MRR2 - Arah Ampang ke Taman Permata , selepas PETRONAS Hulu Kelang 2, berdekatan bus station ada sign board untuk U TURN ke Zoo Negara.
Menurut En Zamri rumah setinggan mereka di Batu 8 Hulu Klang telah dirobohkan 3 tahun lalu dan mereka telah membeli rumah kos rumah tetapi hingga sekarang tidak siap- siap. Keluarga lain mampu untuk buat rumah ditempat lain tapi beliau belum mampu untuk buat pondok sekalipun walaupun ada plan untuk buat ‘pondok sementara’ di tapak khemah itu…saya ada nampak sedikit kayu recycle terkumpul. Semasa kempen pilihanraya ada ada politician berjanji untuk bantu tapi diam begitu saja. Beliau dirikan khemah di situ kerana dekat sekolah dan keempat empat anak bersekolah di Melewati dapat jalan kaki ke sekolah saja. Menurut anak saya akhir-akhir ni dengan cuaca yang tak menentu, anaknya selalu demam dsb.
Saya juga telah bertanya macamana kami boleh bantu dia sekeluarga. Kalau ada rezeki dia cuma mahu dirikan pondok tempat bertuduh dengan harapan rumah kos murah mereka siap, tapi beliau keberatan untuk memberitahu saya kosnya. Setelah didesak beliau beritahu rumah Indon depan rumah dia kecil tu pun lebih kurang RM 3 ribu juga. Indon pun ada rumah, ini keluarga Melayu, En Zamri orang N9 dan isterinya orang Perak.
Alhamdulilah saya dapat memberitahu kisah keluarga ini pada Hj Zul, AJK Surau PETRONAS dan beliau berjanji akan cuba meminta bantuan ADUN Hulu Klang. Pihak Surau PETRONAS juga telah bermurah hati memberi sumbangan segera RM250. Saya dan suami juga akan cuba ikhtiarkan bantuan lain seperti carikan kerja part time untuk isterinya dsbnya. Menurut En Zamri, sekolah juga memberi bantuan.
Sahabat sahabat yang prihatin, saya mohon bantuan iklas semua kalau boleh kita membantu keluarga ini untuk dirikan ‘pondok’ untuk berteduh…..saya tahu ramai yang bermurah hati untuk memberi sumbangan peribadi , zakat (saya rasa keluarga ini layak mendapat zakat)….atau sebagainya….atau mungkin FOC boleh buat ‘keluarga angkat’ sebagai projek amal jariah kita. Sesiapa yang ingin membantu sila beritahu saya.
Semoga ALLAH membalas amal jariah saudara/i sekelian.
Wassalam.
Ku Azah Ku Mohamad.

Personally I want to help the poor family, not just this family but all other family. The least I can do for now is to spread the news about the poor family. I’m not sure where donations/help can be channeled through at the moment but at least spread the words and I’ll update the contact info here.

If you have a blog, please feel free to republish this on your blog !!.

Please feel free to leave a comment on how can we help the poor family. Thanks a bunch.

Show that as a Malaysian, we care for other Malaysians
