  Anyone has any ideas where I should post this, or where to start to a solution?

  Someone told me because of vision problems, I was able to get a free upgrade to Windows 7. Someone knows something about it?

  Picton1,

  There is no free upgrade to Windows 7 for Vista users unless otherwise stated by the manufacturer of your system.

• How can I disable the automatic locking in windows 8?

  The computer locks after inactivity of approximately one minute in windows 8... I must return my password. I tried everything, power options, customization, and it's still not remove. All the functions that relate to disable automatic locking are too broad. Help please!

  Found a solution, under user accounts, click Reset security policies seems to have solved the problem. In addition, it sets the problem of not being able to change the screen saver timeout. I wasn't able to track down the specific policy caused the problem in the first place, but it works for now.

• Disable automatic restart after Windows Update for the home edition of Windows 8 forced

  I use Windows 8 home edition.  I want to keep automatic updates turned on, but I don't want my computer restarts automatically after some Windows updates are installed.

  I am aware that there is a notification on the lock screen, indicating that a reboot is needed, but normally, I keep my computer on all the time and don't ever see this notification.  There are no notifications on the desktop until 15 minutes before the forced restart.  Still, he seems to be at an inopportune time and translates into loss of work.

  I saw messages and articles describing the methods of disabling restarting forced on different versions of Windows by changing the registry keys or by using the Group Policy Editor.  But Windows 8 Home edition does not have the registry key mentioned nor has he a Group Policy Editor.

  Is there a way to display the notification on the desktop even more in advance?

  Is it possible to postpone indefinitely or completely disable the forced reboot?

  I get an error message "Windows cannot find gpedit.msc", probably because I have the Home version and not Pro (even though I really don't like about the reason, I get the error, to be honest).  Which unfortunately for Member States does nothing to increase the probability that I'm going to buy the Pro version (of Win8 or any later version) and instead reduced the probability that I will never buy another product of MS at all.  If anything this behavior makes more sense to a professional (i.e. IT Department coordinated group policy settings) rather than a home setting, so for me to have no way to remove/fix this "feature" really turns me off purchase Windows for domestic use.

  Oh if you have a House version, you will get the editors of group policy.  Actually, politics made the most sense for users.  Send the editorial at MS, not me.

  Open a powershell high command prompt and run this (it's a single line):

  New-ItemProperty 'HKLM:SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\au"- the name"NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers"- PropertyType 'DWord' - value 1

  Or, if you do not want to use powershell, open a command prompt and run this (all one line):

  Tracking Add 'HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU' v NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers /t REG_DWORD /d 1 f

• Sound/audio does not work after automatic update of Windows 8 for the July 12, 2014

  Solving audio problems do not detect a problem.

  When I go to the control panel > hardware & sound > playback, right-click on the device, I get this message:

  "This device is used by another application. Please close all devices... "

  However, I restarted the laptop with no other applications running and I still get the above message.

  It must be linked to the recent update of W8 for 2 days ago that my audio has always worked fine until here. Without having to reinstall all the software, what I can do, as I have not changed anything other than subscribe to automatic update of Windows? (It makes me want to stop the update btw, if the updates affect the normal performance of my laptop).

  A new update for Windows 8 rises to fix this audio problem?

  Welcome to any other measure to solve the problem? -Many thanks.

  It worked for me, you can't find it on your hard drive, you must go to > Control Panel > programs > programs and features-> installed updates. under the microsoft windows list, locate those added on July 12, 2014. RightClick > uninstall the "update for Microsoft Windows (KB2962407)" (let others, simply uninstall it) it invite you to reboot, and you should have sound after reboot. "

  hope this helps, I did not half an hour.

• How can I connect the new installation of Windows 7 for the user profiles on a separate drive har?

  Original title: connect Windows 7 to the output of user profiles?

  I want to reinstall Windows

  My user profiles are on a separate HARD disk
  Is it possible to connect the new install of Win 7 to these existing profiles
  Or I'll create all new profiles and just move all the files manually?

  You can change the registry so that it points to your old profile folder. However, I suspect that this would cause problems because the SID and many registry keys would be incorrect for the current installation. I would like to move the folders manually.

• Windows automatic update of Windows 8 for Windows 8.1

  Ahhh, sit down to make a writing or playing games when the breath CUP! http://i.stack.imgur.com/iuZ2C.PNG, he wants to automatically upgrade me to windows 8.1? How dare you Microsoft!

  So, I continue to get the popup message saying http://i.stack.imgur.com/iuZ2C.png after that I asked to restart later. I don't want to NOT update windows 8.1, so have to unplug and wait it will restore windows 8 every two days is not very fun. I have disabled the automatic updates and it continues to happen. Is there a simple option, I don't know that disables the automatic system update?

  If you upgrade, do not install the device to 8.1, you keep your data/programs > then if you upgrade, not pure install, 10 (you must by July 28, 2016 or it is not free) / data programs remain intact.

  BUT, you should always have your data backed up on an external anyway.

  And there is never guarantee granted in the calculation that upgrades will work perfectly 100% of the time.

  See you soon.

• My wife is the administrator user and she forgot her password and she did not save what we can and there are only standard users on this PC, what can we do?

  My wife is the administrator user and she forgot her password and it does not back up and there is only standard users on this PC, what can we do?

  If your wife was using his account with "computer administrator" privileges, and then use the built-in account named "Administrator".

  By default, the built-in account named "Administrator" doesn't have a password.  If you have XP Pro, you can access the administrator account (with no other connected users) Welcome screen by pressing CTRL + ALT + DELETE twice to bring up the "classic" logon window  Enter the administrator user and leave the password empty box.

  In XP Pro or XP Home, you can access the administrator account by restarting mode without fail (repeatedly press F8 to leave immediately after the computer starts / restarts; if you see the Windows logo, you waited too long and you will need to try again).  Once Windows starts in Mode safe mode, the administrator account will appear on the Welcome screen.

  Once you are in the administrator account, go to control panel > user accounts to reset the password of an account with "computer administrator" privileges or create a new user account with privileges "computer administrator."

  If the password that you lack to the built-in, ' administrator' account politics of Microsoft for these forums forbid us to provide you with any information that might help you to bypass this password.

• Firefox forces me to use an administrator account to download on windows, I have two user accounts two called admin?

  I tried to download firefox on a pc with windows vista, fiefox configure wants me to go to an administrator account. There are two users on the windows machine means, both as directors, but at the same time discourage making a staff. Firefox invites me to an administrator and a password, I tried to add a password for my user account, but it has not been accepted, if I try the alternative to use "current user" it is unresponsive and disappears from the download area. This is getting ridiculous. Help, please.

  I'm assuming that you download the installer of Firefox http://www.getfirefox.com/ with Internet Explorer. Something to try:

  You must choose the registration option (do not use the run option). Once the download is complete, open the download folder for your Windows account, then right-click on the Firefox setup.exe inside the file and choose run as administrator.
