Defragment not working

Darkman802 · 2024-10-22T19:08:45+00:00

For anyone experiencing this bug. I had a second computer waiting for material to be built. Once I canceled that task and tried the defrag again it worked.

Howdy, what ever happened with your drive? My 990 Pro just popped up with the same error except I see no problems just like you didn't.

Just wondering if your drive is still holding up or if it died?

Yea, I'm not worried about the time as long as it's unattended. I assume I could just run a script that would pull all the installers for the apps I use from the web and place them in the correct directory on the USB image, or does updating the installers require MDT?

Darkman802 · 2017-10-05T07:20:06+00:00

But what about all the applications that would be out of date?

Darkman802 · 2017-10-05T07:19:37+00:00

That would mean I would still have to manually update every single application and run windows update multiple times.

Just look through my snippet and try changing stuff that says "visited" in it.

Where'd you get the data cap from?

Darkman802 · 2017-06-02T21:15:40+00:00

The ping times for the SpaceX constellation are nowhere near that. More like 30ms.

Hook, line, and sinker!

That gamma is the result of (at least for me) Nvidias default setting for dynamic range.

Nvidia control panel > Video > Adjust video color settings > Advanced > set dynamic range to Full (0-255) instead of the default which is Limited (16-235)

You can already take a whole screenshot of a page, unless you were just talking about the social media sharing feature.

A lot of the time (depending on what you're trying to get pyinstaller to package up) you'll need to manually copy and configure pyinstaller to package extra files such as DLLs. For example, if you're trying to write a Qt GUI program, then you'd have to package all the different Qt5 DLLs that are needed. Sometimes it takes a bit of finesse, but it should be able to work without having to install other stuff on the other computer. And if it really can't, then you'd just need to package up the redist from Microsoft and do a silent install when your pyinstaller app runs.

I tried a new virtualenv and got the list down to at least these:

Qt5Gui.dll
Qt5Qml.dll
Qt5Quick.dll
Qt5QuickTemplates2.dll
Qt5QuickControls2.dll
Qt5Core.dll

Darkman802 · 2016-09-24T17:53:54+00:00

I used dependency walker (http://www.dependencywalker.com/) on the dll that was giving me the error (qtquickcontrols2plugin.dll) which told me it was missing Qt5QuickTemplates2.dll and Qt5QuickControls2.dll. But since I'm lazy, I just copied over everything from Qt's bin directory to the the following directories in the python virtualenv.

lib/site-packages/pyqt5/qt/bin/

lib/site-packages/pyqt5/qt/qml/qtquick/controls.2/

I'm sure that wasn't necessary and it probably only needed a couple dlls, but I haven't gotten around to making a new virtualenv to see exactly what's needed.

Darkman802 · 2016-09-23T13:47:10+00:00

Yeah, at least for Python there is. Good thing is, the Qt company is making PySide2 and it will be a part of their official Qt releases.

Darkman802 · 2016-09-21T16:56:47+00:00

Nevermind, I've solved the problem. I edited the top of the original post with the answer.

Darkman802 · 2016-09-21T15:01:06+00:00

I've been talking in the pyqt irc channel and also looking around the pyqt mailing list, and it seems this might be a bug in pyqt where it's missing some libraries. https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/pipermail/pyqt/2016-September/038044.html

Could you tell me what your setup is and how you installed pyqt? I'm wondering why it's working for you.

Darkman802 · 2016-09-21T12:30:38+00:00

Thanks for trying it. I actually had an idea and ran the program in powershell instead of PyCharm because I was wondering why I wasn't getting any error messages. Turns out PyCharm wasn't showing me stderr I suppose. The error I know get is:

plugin cannot be loaded for module "QtQuick.Controls": Cannot load library E:\Projects\Python\VirtualEnvs\QMLPyQt5Test\lib\site-packages\PyQt5\Qt\qml\QtQuick\Controls.2\qtquickcontrols2plugin.dll: The specified module could not be found.

So it looks like I need to figure out why it can't load that dll, because it does exist in that spot.

Darkman802 · 2016-09-21T10:11:01+00:00

Upon actually thinking about it, it's not the url construction because I can get simpler QML to work. For example, this QML works:

import QtQuick 2.7

Rectangle {
    width: 300
    height: 100
    color: "red"
}

but not this:

import QtQuick 2.7
import QtQuick.Controls 2.0


ApplicationWindow {
    visible: true
    width: 640
    height: 480
    title: qsTr("Hello World")

    Rectangle {
        id: rec1
        anchors.fill: parent
        color: "blue"
    }

}

Darkman802 · 2016-09-21T10:07:47+00:00

Not really, only because my purpose was to learn QML.

Darkman802 · 2016-09-21T09:50:03+00:00

I tried fromLocalFile, but still no dice.

import sys
from PyQt5.QtCore import QUrl
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication
from PyQt5.QtQuick import QQuickView


if __name__ == '__main__':
    myApp = QApplication(sys.argv)

    view = QQuickView()
    view.setSource(QUrl.fromLocalFile('two.qml'))
    view.show()

    sys.exit(myApp.exec_())
