can I please go back to windows xp from windows 8

can I use MS Word or MS Excel with windows 8

Yes, you can use MS Word, Excel and all desktop applications by winning 8.

Go back to win XP is going to be difficult at best.  You will need to re - install the operating system, applications, you may need to buy another XP key (unless you know the earlier).

Microsoft has not made this one easy, so unless you have a pressing reason to return in my humble OPINION I wouldn't

  • Pro Media Center of Windows 8 license is not triggered. How can I make it back to Windows 8 Pro license

    I received a free upgrade license for Windows 8 Pro with Media Center, at the time where they offered.

    I have not noticed that the license is good if active before a date which has since long (a few times in February). The license has been accepted at the entrance and the Media Center software installed, when I went to add new features to Windows 8 (I had already updated the machine to Windows 8 Pro.

    In fact, I don't want to buy the upgrade at this point. How can I make the license back to the old key... which of course, now I can't see.  I bought several upgrades, and you have not installed all, so I don't know how many of those I've not used on other machines upgrade is the one I used on this one.

    Thank you

  • How can I get quickly back to the Inbox from an open message

    When I open Mozilla if there's a message opened, showing that I can not understand how to return to the Inbox without having to scroll along the bar at the top before all other messages in the box. It makes me mad and is probably very simple, but I would really appreciate the help.

    The best way is to close the messages after they are read and not open as many tabs as you press the main tab off the screen.
    To close multiple tabs at once right click a tab and choose close other tabs. Then use the x to close the last tab.

    It's really frustrating.

    First thing, I looked for. The "Share With" was not there either. Abandoned and went the long way on this subject for that to be resolved more quickly.

    A disk image backup, re-installed Windows 7 and found the ntshrui.dll keys in the registry and it has exported to my office. Restore the disk image and import the key in my registry.
    All back to normal now. Tab share is present. Problem solved.

    There is no such thing as a downgrade to Windows XP. You had to make a
    new installation of Windows XP. Exactly how did you do?

    Thus, Windows 7 Pro is on the machine.

    "So?" Why you say that it is on the machine? How do you know? Or what makes
    Do you not? It probably isn't.

    You do not have to be equipped with Windows 7 to install Microsoft Office
    2010. as long as you have Windows XP SP3, it can run 32-bit Office
    2010.

  • Caps lock seeing abruptly stopped visible on-screen. How can I get that back

    Caps lock seeing abruptly stopped visible on-screen.  How can I get that back

    Windows is not a caps lock indicator.  The indicator on the screen is provided by another program, provided by the manufacturer of your computer.  Computers Dell, for example, have a program called QuickSet which performs this function.  Other computers, such as eMachines, use a program called HotKey that is running in the taskbar near the clock.

    If it stop working, the program may have been closed (or maybe even turned off by someone else). A great troubleshooting step is simply restart your computer.  As long as the program is still installed, it must itself automatically restart (assuming nobody has disabled it).
