Can I get bitlocker on Business?

From: GordonK

I know that Bitlocker is not available with (weird that anything tbh however) businesses. I have a Windows Vista Ultimate DVD upgrade and the product key but tbh really, I won't upgrade my edition perfectly working Business OEM with something when all I want is one, yes one, Ultimate extras... BitLocker.

Is it possible to put the issue on the Business edition without going through an upgrade.

I can guarantee you any upgrade will be something to screw up since the manufacturer installed extras that are more useful to me than the strange, one or 2 I could get with final.

Any way to do tihis?

From: Jane C

Hi Gordon,.

Sorry, but no, you can do that.  BitLocker is able to be used on Ultimate and Enterprise.

    Hello gregg1972,

    Sorry to inform you, but it is highly unlikely that you will be able to get that work natively in Windows 7.  At best, you might be able to use XP Mode to run.  May need to find a replacement program.  Latest documents on the program was 10 years from Adobe themselves.  Before the release of XP.

    You run like CCleaner cleaning software that deletes cookies?

  • HP ENVY 7640: all new HP ENVY 7640 gets msg "Printer busy" when you try to fax doc to computer

    All the functions of the printer I checked so far work very well: copy, fax directly from the printer receive fax, scan to computer, etc..  But I get msg "Printer busy" when you try to fax doc to computer.  My installation conforms to guide: distinctive ring (double ring), I phone DSL and voice on the same line, using same USB cord and USB installation as I did with my just-replaced Officejet 6500 a.  Line number two.  When I call the number assigned to fax from my phone it double rings and sends fax tone.  Why get 'Print occupied' msg?

    Thank you, for your advice Sanal.  It was good advice, but it was the same steps that I had performed several times over the last few days.  It was also the same steps as your colleagues made when they took my computer in 12 hours of chats on Sat, 10-1.

  • I try to upgrade my old vista laptop to win7, but don't remember the product key for my computer compaq laptop. How can I get this key?

    * Original title: get the product key

    I try to upgrade my old vista laptop to win7, but don't remember the product key for my computer compaq laptop. How can I get this key?

    Hello

    Your question is not very clear to understand.

    If Vista is preinstalled on your laptop, this product key is NOT for Windows 7.

    There is a free upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 years, but that offer expired for a long time.

    How does the Windows 7 upgrade Option?

    The Windows 7 upgrade Option is available through participating PC manufacturers on some PC and Microsoft on any purchase of packaged product Windows Vista. The Windows 7 upgrade Option applies to Windows Vista Home Premium, Business and Ultimate editions. Your Windows 7 update will be the comparable version: so you will get either Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Professional (upgrade to Windows Vista Business) or Windows 7 Ultimate, respectively. The Option of upgrade Windows 7 program runs from June 26, 2009 through January 31, 2010. Some manufacturers may choose to shorten the time of upgrade Option.

    Microsoft sells more than Windows 7, but it does NOT come for free.

    Try Amazon.com, etc.

    ___________________________________________________________

    And if you ask to transfer the license of Windows 7 from a mobile to another laptop:

    You tell us what type of license you have.

    If the laptop came with the preinstalled Windows operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.), this product key supplied with the laptop is preinstalled OEM license and is not transferable.

    OEM license/product key (systems of operating pre-installed on Dell, HP, etc.) is related to the first machine it is installed on and dies when dies of this machine.

    The above applies also to OEM system builders licenses.

    License of operating system in detail, that you buy and install yourself, are allowed to be transferred to another machine.

    And retail licenses also can be installed on a machine at one time.
