I copied (Ghosted?) Files from a HDD that had some problems onto a WD 80 gig using the supplied software. I have found one small problem. When you boot up and loads windows completely, it opens a window with the title of new folder and it is empty. I have unchecked every thing in startup with no luck I hope someone can help.
Mysterious folder, How do I get rid of it?

Please click the link below for your operating system to download the TSG SysInfo Utility. Click on "Save File" then double-click the file to run it. Copy and paste the report in your initial post. Windows 7 and later (downloads a file named tsginfo.exe) | Windows XP (downloads a file named SysInfo.exe)

Hi,
Open the Registry by going to Start => Run and typing in "regedit" {without the quotes}
Navigate to this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SoftwareE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
In the right-hand pane, check the Value of string Userinit
See if it looks like this:
C:\windows\system32\userinit.exe,c:\windows\system32\userinit.exe
If it does, and before making any changes, go to File => Export and save the 'Selected Branch' to a suitable location with a suitable name.
Then...
Right-click on Userinit and Modify its Value to:
C:\windows\system32\userinit.exe
