How to reformat a computer that was previously connected to the network?
original title: change the network to stand aloneWe acquire some computers that were on a network: the network no longer exists and we want to use in the State current alones. We have we anything apart from Windows and Office CD that we have, that is all the drivers because they were thought to be on the server. Any help would be appreciated
Simply reinstall Windows and Office from the CD you have. The fact that they used to be on a network does not come into play. Once installed, you can go to windowsupdate.microsoft.com to install updates that are necessary for your computer or see the website of the manufacturer for updated drivers.

I use a Mac for video editing, but due to the rules of society, he can't go on the Internet with this computer. I have 5 AfterEffects but I need AfterEffects 6 for a project. I wanted to download the trial on Adobe.com, but it wants to install on the 'internet' designated computer which is of course a Win computer and not one that is put in place for video editing.
So how / where can I get the AE6 full test downloaded on my computer Win and transfer it to my Mac, then activate of course on the Mac for the 30-day trial period without having to put this computer online?
I'm sorry Juditka but I don't know of all downloads for After Effects 6.0.
If you are looking to download after effects Creative Suite 6, then the installation files are Download produced CS6.

Original title: problem: Guest account does not work even after activation due to profile problems.
After you activate the guest on this system account tries to log in under this account to fail with the message "Failed to load the user profile". According to the information I found online about this error, I checked HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList to see if a key exists since comments (it isn't). I also checked the Windows application log and found the following entries:
- Windows cannot copy file C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\SqmApi\SqmData720896_00.sqm to the C:\Users\Guest\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\SqmApi\SqmData720896_00.sqm location. This error can be caused by network problems or insufficient security rights.
DETAIL - access is denied.
- Windows cannot find the local profile and connects you with a temporary profile. Changes to this profile will be lost when you close the session
- Windows cannot copy file C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\SqmApi\SqmData720896_00.sqm to the C:\Users\TEMP\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\SqmApi\SqmData720896_00.sqm location. This error can be caused by network problems or insufficient security rights.
DETAIL - access is denied.
- Windows is unable to login because your profile cannot be loaded. Check that you are connected to the network and that your network is working properly.
RETAIL - only part of a query ReadProcessMemory or WriteProcessMemory was completed.
The path of the C:\Users\TEMP does not exist, and the sqm file specified does not deny entries in its ACL, just full control to the SYSTEM, LOCAL SERVICE, my admin account and the Administrators group.
I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 edition.

Well guys,.
The simplest solution is to read what the error.
"Cannot copy file C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\SqmApi\SqmData720896_00.sqm"
I tried a lot of suggestion, but delete the file crazy and that's all working again.
Beter first remove windows live as well. I only have the first and received the message that something is wong with the installation.
Hope this has been helpful.

Hello David,.
Adobe Reader download for Windows offline, see: ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/
Here, you click the offline more recent, complete with Adobe Reader version. This installation file, you can easily transport for example on a USB key and also to install it on computers that do not have access to the Internet.An important decision during the installation is the updates, so you should use the last option
