• The upgrade from Vista to Windows 7: How can I make sure that I keep Microsoft Office

  A few months back I took advantage of this offer to upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 for a discounted price. After that I downloaded the upgrade file, Upgrade Advisor told me that because I'm using Vista business and I was upgrade 7, that my computer would probably be home must pass through with a 'clean install', thus wiping my hard drive.

  That's fine with me, I could just move my documents and Favorites on an external hard drive. But I'm afraid that the upgrade will be wipe my Microsoft Office programs.

  I bought this computer a few years ago. I don't even know if I bought the program with office bundled with it, or if I bought it separately (and probably the discs are somewhere in storage).

  How can I make this update without losing Microsoft Office? Is it possible to confirm if my word has come with my computer or if I installed it separately. If it came with it, and I lose it, certainly there must be a free way for me to recover. Right?

  Any other advice for someone planning on the upgrade?

  Thank you!

  You're the one who knows if you installed Office.

  Office (Word, etc.) comes for free with Windows. you have to buy.

  If Office is preinstalled, it was a test.

  A clean installation will wipe everything.

  You cannot transfer programs.

  It needs to be reinstalled from the original media.

• Windows install-"error 1325 - 'Documents' is not a valid short file name"; After upgrading from Vista to Windows 7, cannot load new software. ____

  After an upgrade from Vista to Windows 7, everything on the system seemed to work properly. up to what I tried to re - install everything deleted software or install new software.  As soon as Windows Installer starts the following error message appears: "error 1325 - 'Documents' is not a valid short file name.

  If this could have something to do with the new pads MSFT security permissions on folders (with padlock) during a upgrade as well as related hidden junctions by compared to the user by the system?

  I tried to install the update system of Lenovo and MSFT Windows Installer Clean Up clean in the hope that the software would help alleviate my problems. See below the link on advice from MSFT on the same error.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/%2Fkb%2F328162

  Unfortunately, I cannot even load the previously recommended THAT MSFT software to solve this error.  I also tried to install the software as 'Run as Administrator' and in 'Safe Mode '.  Even if I could not load the software recommended to MSFT, I was able to install iTunes to Apple through Apple Software Update, I guess, that they do not use Windows Installer.

  With the new structure of junction there is several files or links to the same folder across file system, if it is a folder authorization number which specific files/links are I need to remove restrictions?

  Any help would be appreciated, if not I'll have to do a clean install and individually reinstall each piece of software... Thank you.

  I think I found the solution for this point, because I have just encountered the same problem in our environment and here's what I did to solve it:

  -Create a higher level permissions at the root of the folder redirection (for example \\servername\mydocredirfolder): grant the Group authenticated users the following permissions and apply it to "this folder only" ALLOW: list folders/read data, reading, reading attributes, read extended attributes, create files / add data

  I think the MSI is trying to read the free space on the disk on the server, but it cannot because it tries to access the folder where your my documents redirection is sitting.

  Good luck!

• 'Upgrade' from Vista to Windows 7 without a clean install

  Is it possible to upgrade from Vista Home Premium 64-bit for Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. I searched through the forums and most of the responses seem to confuse "upgrade" with "clean install". I bought the Windows 7 upgrade in order to keep all of my existing programs and settings in place not re - install everything from the beginning.

  Is it possible to upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 7? If this isn't the case, then I don't see how Microsoft can claim to offer a "upgrade path". I don't think a "clean install" is the generally accepted definition of an upgrade.

  It is NOT possible!

  When important changes to your computer, for example an upgrade, it is always recommended that you back up your system before installing a new version of Windows. In your case, you can upgrade to Windows 7 depending on the edition and the architecture of Windows Vista, you have installed. If you are running a 32-bit version of Vista and upgrade to a 64-bit (Windows 7 edition) version, you'll have a pure make install, it is the opposite case.

  If you are using Windows Vista Home Basic or Premium consumer editions, you can only upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate. In addition, you can make downgrades, which means, if you are running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition now, you cannot downgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. You perform logical upgrades:

  Windows Vista Home Basic > Windows 7 Home Basic, Premium or Ultimate

  Windows Vista Edition Home Premium > Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate

  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition

  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Enterprise

  Windows Vista Ultimate > Windows 7 Ultimate.
