After the upgrade to windows 7 to 10 windows, can I go back to windows 7 and upgrade will it effect other already installed OS like ubuntu?

I got the upgrade notification windows 10 and I booked it. Is to show that after July 29, it will download a 3 GB file and then it will move to windows 10.

I have two questions-

  • Once upgrade of windows 7 windows 10, is it possible to get back to it in windows 7? I certainly do not want to reinstall windows 7 again. [after the upgrade to windows 10, both windows 7 & 10 windows will always be in my system?]  ]
  • I have two OS on my system - window 7 and ubuntu 14.04 [both are level of OS boot ] it will make my Ubuntu OS during the upgrade of windows 10.

  • HP Mini 210: Palm Desktop (see 6.2.2) lost address book during and after the upgrade to Windows from December 10

    The problem is not with the HP Mini. This computer is running Windows 7 Starter and he Hotsyncs perfectly with my Tungsten C handheld. The problem is with a Dell Vostro, but because it is a problem of Palm, I hope you can help.

    My Dell Vostro has been upgraded to Windows 10 in September. I had a few problem get the Palm to synchronize at this time, but I thought her and successfully synched bases Memo, address and the Date of all the way up to 10 Windows update that Microsoft pushed around Christmas.

    The first Hot Sync attempt after the update given my address book disappear from desktop ONLY (running version 6.2.2) and I was not able to find a way to restore the address book on the desk.

    Handheld still works fine. As I said the HotSync with the HP Netbook (Windows 7 Starter Edition) and I would like to continue to use it as long as ITO still works.

    Try using the Import/Export built-in in Palm Desktop.

    On the PC that contains the data, go to File/Export (while the address book is open and being viewed).  This will produce a file that you can copy to the Dell PC.  Use a flash drive, Cloud Computing service, card SD - it doesn't matter.

    On the Dell, go to file/import and locate the file.

    Windows 10 has caused some 'quirks' to appear in Palm Desktop.  We learn that we will!

  • FN keys do not work after the upgrade to Windows 10

    Why the FN keyboard does not work after upgrade to Windows 10?

    FN keys are controlled by utilities and special tools of Toshiba. Usually after the upgrade to Windows 10, the parts of the pre-installed Toshiba software must be upgraded to version compatible and support Windows 10...

    You have not provided information on the laptop model so I can't say with certainty if your unit is 10 Windows supported or not...

  • Pavilion dv6: Intel Centrino Wireless - n 2230 will not activate after the upgrade to Windows 10

    Model A3E82AV number

    I've been avoiding Windows 10 because I knew something like this was going to happen, but I took the pludge.  Anyway, everything seemed to work but my wireless adapter.  After the upgrade, the rocker on the keyboard turns on and outside airplane mode, and I can't switch to map wireless in Windows settings.

    I can get wireless adapter to turn on, go into that in a minute, but if I shutdown or reboot, the problem returns.

    I had success in the driver update, or by manually installing the driver, I even read a tip to make the battery, hold the power button down while the battery is out and run it upwards.  I tried to reset the BIOs to default settings.  When the computer feels like it, the wireless adapter will start working after a reboot.  If I have the toggle switch, the light goes from orange to white, I can then activate wireless and connect to my SSID.  If I stop or restart, my wireless NETWORK card no longer works and we return to the toggle keyboard turning power on and off airplane mode.  Device Manager says it is working normally and the drivers are up to date.

    I read a post from microsoft that says VPN adapters could cause corruption while making the upgrade.  I'm a professional, so I got a handful of cards, but also virtual cards VMWare Workstation installed, so I tried to come back to Win 7, remove the adapters, are re-upgrade.  It does not solve the issue.  While I was back in Windows 7, everything worked most of the time, but there were some problems with the programs, etc. which would not work right.  When I upgraded to Windows 10, some of these problems persist, so I checked my backups to make sure they were up to date and did a new install of windows 10.  I am now running a new image with just firefox, associate of HP and the different drivers Intel, I tried to install, and I still can't get the card wireless to tour consistantly on / off power after a reboot.  I thought for sure the nuclear option could solve the problem now I can't even go back to Windows 7.  I did mention to try some recommended drivers Intel, I found in other posts... I also tried to uninstall the driver, and install in compatibility mode, but that has not worked, either.

    This one had me scratching my head.  I tried literally everything I can find on the internet in an attempt to solve the problem, and nothing will keep the work of consistantly wireless NETWORK card.  Any other ideas out there?

    Looking at the forums, appears not to have a lot of people in all areas of this issue with different brands of computers and network interface cards.  If anyone knows anything else to try, I would really appreciate it.

    FIXED!

    I think so.  I downloaded and installed the bios for Windows 8.  After that, I managed shutdown and booted my laptop 3 times and restarted once.  Every time you start after the installation of the firmware BIOs, the card automatically turned on and connected to my SSID NETWORK.  Since the upgrade to Windows 10 I saw not the laptop automatically start and connect the wireless NETWORK card and he did successfully 4 times now.

    The file that I downloaded from the HP Web site was update the BIOs for Windows 8 version F.2D rev A.  The file name is sp68425.  I will continue to monitor and make sure that it was indeed the fix, but all great so far.

    For people who can run on the same topic, here's a recap of what I did to solve my problem:

    Centrino 2230 installed 15.18.0.1 driver
    Update driver Bluetooth 10.0.10586.0

    Updated the BIOS to the version of Windows 8 F.2D Rev A

    If you decide to play with the BIOs firmware, just be aware that if things go well, you could cause more damage to your system.  I would only try this method if you are uncomfortable for the recovery of a faulty BIOS installation.

  • Problem with a keyboard key of T440 after the upgrade to Windows 10

    Hello world

    I have a Brazilian keyboard layout (ABNT2) on my T440 and I am facing a problem after the upgrade to Windows 10. The new version of Windows recognizes this key:

    As long as the "CTRL on the right" (commom on other layouts).

    Everyone was faced with a similar problem or have any clues as to what might solve this problem?

    Thanks in advance,

    Solved.

    Do more research, I fount out is an old bug with Lenovo's Thinkpad laptops with this Brazilian keyboard.

  • HP Support Assistant broke up shortly after the upgrade to windows 8

    I use a 4 month old desktop HP Pavilion HPE h9-1130 Phoenix, with windows 8 pro (64-bit). There are 2 or more months, I upgraded to windows 7 (64-bit), and I followed the instructions of the windows Upgrade Wizard 8. He said not to uninstall HP support assistant, so I left. After the upgrade, which went through flawlessly, hp support Assistant works perfectly. But a few weeks or months, he ran an update, and update failed to start and the program crashed. Immediately after that, the icon of Wizard support hp in the taskbar has disappeared, as well as the program itself. It will be displayed on the list of programs, but I'm not able to uninstall or do something with it. I can't either start. I tried to get help from HP customer care, but they were a bunch of idiots who just wasted my time. I couldn't even communicate with them, because they were all Indians and speaks very by the English. I tried to ask to speak with a customer support English agent or a Manager, but they would put me on hold and it would never transfer, so I hung up. I think I spoke to 6 different customer support agents a few week spans and via different outlets (live chat, phone, email). One of the "agents of support" has been so incompetent that he spent an hour on the remote just link sitting there, doing repetitive things I told him constantly, I had already tried, like trying to do a base installation of the Web-_-... That said, I was wondering if someone could help me solve the problem, because I would like to have Deputy support back on my computer. But I am doing nothing tedious as a reinstallation of windows or something like that, because it's just ridiculous for a program very little relevant.

    Resolved, by none other than myself. No, thanks to HP customer care, or this forumn. Of a curious, I uninstalled a crap tone of the files and folders that are associated with HP Support Assistant, including HP, frame Support HP, HP Setup, HP Setup Manager support and many other files via Windows Explorer (by searching appropriate tab of the computer), Windows uninstaller and Revo Uninstaller free control panel. Once I felt I had managed to get rid of a bunch of broken files of shit, I tried to install a new HP SA on their site, but it wouldn't work. To fix that, I found that guests "Overwriting" mentioned above has led to the problem, which was "swsetup" and HP SA files have been left and prevented a clean install.  So to fix that, I deleted all pre-existing swsetup and files HP SA from Windows Explorer. After all this, I was able to successfully install SA HP, although I had to download it and then manually start the installation process by clicking on the executable file of the application in the new HP SA folder. Everything seems to work fine now, I ran pretty much all the features of the program and they work fine.  The only thing that seems to be a bit weird is that I updated the original HP Bluetooth driver and rebooted, but it seems not to save the update, as it is still prompting me to do it again.  This isn't a big deal, as an easy solution is just for x on this recommended update and hide.   I will update if something happens, but if I don't update, it means that the product works as it should.  Let's hope I don't have to deal with HP customer support once again, what a terrible experience!

  • Volume controls on the keyboard after the upgrade to Windows 8

    I have a Touchsmart 520-1070 with the mouse and keyboard without wire factory.  After the upgrade to WIndows 8, the volume controls no longer work.  I tried the Recovery Manager to reinstall the keyboard drivers, but there is no driver keyboard under hardware drivers.

    In the following device manager are listed under keyboards:

    HID keyboard device

    Keyboard 109 MCIR Microsoft eHome

    Keyboard MCIR Microsoft eHome

    Microsoft eHome key remove control Keayboard

    PS/2 standard keyboard

    Any report that they are installed and are working correctly and that the drivers are up to date.

    Has anyone else seen or solved this problem with a Touchsmart computer?

    The instructions below were provided by HP support.  This has restored the function on the keyboard volume controls.  The referenced below drivers are drivers IDT high definition Audio Device.  I am not sure that it was necessary to reinstall the audio drivers.  It can only had to remove the USB dongle and back to restore the functionality of the button.  Note: the USB dongle is located behind the VESA Panel to the back of the PC.  No tools are required and the dongle can be removed and replaced without shutting down the PC.  VESA panel removal requires a bit of a steady hand, pulling the lip which is close to the connections on the rear panel.

    Instructions received from HP:

    Please go to the following link and check the "return of the system", article #7 is the USB dongle:

  • HP Photosmart C6280: cannot print on C6280 wireless after the upgrade to Windows 10

    Cannot print on C6280 wireless after the upgrade to Windows 10. Have removed the device, but try to re install the printer when is not found. Can print if I connect USB. Tried to reload the driver using HP Support software help, but when he arrives at the end of the download fails.

    Hi @Ron9871,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I see that you are unable to get your printer HP Photosmart C6280 wireless printing. I'd be happy to help you and don't forget to come back to this thread and check "Accept as Solution", if I have successfully helped solve you the problem. If you want to say 'Thank you' to my effort to help, click on the "thumbs up" to give me a Kudos.

    I would like to try the steps in this guide, "offline" Status Message printer (Windows 10).

    If the problem persists, you may encounter an IP address conflict. It's a good idea to assign the printer a static IP address outside your DHCP range. For example, some routers default DHCP is located between 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.200. So, I would use 192.168.0.232.

    • Print a Page of Network Configuration menu of the printer front panel. Note: the IPV4 IP.
    • Type the IP address in the browser to bring up the SAP.
    • Choose the network tab, then wireless on the left side, and then select the IPv4 tab.
    • Select Manual IP.
    • Enter your IP address manual (192.168.0.232)
    • Enter 255.255.255.0 for the subnet mask, except if it is different.
    • Enter the IP address of your router that sits on the Network Configuration Page) for the default gateway.
    • Please, click on manual DNS server. For the preferred DNS Server Manual please enter 8.8.8.8 and the Alternate DNS Server Manual, please enter 8.8.4.4.
    • Click on apply.

    Please restart the router, the printer and the computer in this sequence.

    If you're still having problems, please download and run the print and Scan doctor, it will be probably diagnose and fix the problem you are experiencing.

    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (she print or scan, error messages)

    You can try to change your WSD printer port by a Standard TCP/IP port.

    To do this, you will need your current IP address printers.  The Network Setup page shows the parameters of network for the product. To print this page; Press the button of network () on the control panel of the product.
