Can I reinstall Windows without losing all my data?

I have starting problems. I tried startup repair and the other choiceson system repair screen and which did not find anything. I suspect that it is a system rather than material.

I can boot into what is logon Windows and then I just get a white screen with a mouse cursor. Is there anyway to install Windows files without making a complete clean install which would mean losing me all my data and having to reinstall all my programs again?

Thank you
Tony

If you want to have the factory settings still something like this is not possible.

If the situation is very annoying for you back up all your data and reinstall the recovery image. OK it works a little bit for you to have the old configuration once again, but it's not that complicated. :)

  • Reinstall Windows without losing personal files

    I have an external hard drive I have Windows 7 on, but recently it seems to have got some corrupted files because it does not start. It gets past the windows splash screen, and then sits down with a cursor on a black screen. I can move the mouse cursor.

    I think that the best way to solve this problem would be to reinstall all windows files.
    I can plug the hard drive into another computer and view the files of the operating system of the computer.
    In short, what I'm asking if there's a way to reinstall all files in windows without losing all my personal files

    You can perform a custom installation.

    Boot from the Windows 7 DVD
    Click Install now
    Accept the license agreement
    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

    You will receive the following warning:

    The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

    (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

    The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

    Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

    You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

    I do not have a disk of Windows 8, but will get one if necessary. Also, after checking the settings of the UEFI firmware twice, to check and put in on the "optimal settings", I don't seem to be able to do more. There is also no reliable computer here repair store in Batam, but I'll check in Singapore on Wednesday of this week, 2 days after this message.

    I have read about others who have corrected this problem without losing all their data and I'd like to do the same thing, or at least most of my data. Is it possible to save the data in this State?

    You do not have.  You add another e-mail address as a second email account, while you keep the other at the same time.  But as stated to Veritas, it would be useful that you got a little more specific if you want a more detailed answer.

  • How to reinstall windows without losing any data on the Satellite A100

    Hello everyone!
    I have a Toshiba Satellite A100 laptop and would like to reinstall Windows. The disc was divided into 2 parts. WinXp Home is installed on the first.

    What happens with the data on the secondary disk if I use the recovery CD? It will be formatted?
    And if this is the case, how can I reinstall winXP Home without losing the data on the second drive?

    You can install the OS on the first partition only and all data saved on the second partition will not be deleted. To do this procedure of departure recovery and after choosing the language button tablecloth call SETUP. It is placed on the right side.

    If I like what you must remember he chose the second option. The first one can be used when you want to create the new partition (DO NOT choose this one).

    Bye and good luck!

  • Can I use the recovery CD without losing all my data?

    When I turn on my laptop satellite I get a message saying that the Windows system file is missing or damaged. The standard fix seems to be to repair using the Windows CD of Installation which of course I did not. I've also seen suggestions that sometimes chkdsk will fix the problem, but I can't run no more.

    The insert on the product recovery disc warns that all created files since I bought the laptop will be deleted. However, when I load the utility, I get two options. The first is to reinstall XP on my entire hard drive, and he told me that if I do that, I'll lose all my files. The second option is to install XP on a separate partition on my hard drive. He said nothing to lose all my data. Am I right in thinking that this second option will be to install XP, say, E: and I will then be able to run chkdsk on C:, or at least access C: and back up all my data?

    My deep gratitude for all the advice!

    Hello

    Sounds like you have an old Win XP Recovery disk

    Of general use of the Toshiba Recovery disk would be to format the whole HARD drive and therefore existing partitions will be deleted too I m not quite sure on the second option, you mentioned, maybe you would be able to choose a partition during the recovery process and would be able to install the operating system only on this partition without formatting the HARD drive but I m not 100% sure because it seems to be a former recovery procedure

    I would recommend another solution. You want to access the HARD drive to back up data. Right? Why you n start t Notepad using a Livecd such as Knoppix. In this case nothing would be installed on the HARD drive and the data on the HARD drive would not be affected so you can access important data and can move a HDD connected USB or flash memory stick

    After that, you can run the recovery procedure and might install Win XP on C.

  • PowerEdge1800. Can I reinstall Windows without screwing up D: Partition?

    Our old Poweredge1800, win2k3sp2, has a raid perc with 3 disks. The machine stops booting acpitabl.dat. I started in the recovery from the CD console, and chkdsk shows unrecoverable errors on C:\ I was unable to see even a directory C:\Windows, so I think that's where the errors are.

    Here's the nut of the problem: I need to copy some directories off the D:\ partition on an external USB hard drive. We have NO good backup of these specific directories. It is quite irritating that Recovery Console won't let me access anything below D:\. Is there a procedure known to:

    1. reinstall or repair the C:\Windows\ directory, WITHOUT damaging the partition D:\, or

    2. a bootable CD image that allows you to access the disk D:\.

    I know, I should have backups, and I do, for the most part. These files were updated on the eve of this system has taken a nose dive.

    Yes. When you start the Windows installation, it will ask you where you wan to install and you will show the existing partitions. It will show C: and D:. You need to remove C:, then select the unpartitioned space to install to.

  • Why do I suddenly have 2 editions of Word in my computer? And they have all my files listed. How can I delete one without losing all my files?

    When I open a file to someone else, yesterday, he downloaded a second edition of Word on my computer.  I deleted the icon, but she returned when I connected again, taking several minutes to open.  I can only find an edition of Word basics.  But the two icons take me to the Word program, and two, I see all my files.  What should I do, please?

    Hi Chris,

    I see that you have problems with more than a word icon. I'll help you with this problem.

    Please ensure that only one icon is present on the desktop. You can remove the icon of other words. Remove the icon will not affect documents that you have created.

    You need to right click the icon you want to remove and select Delete. This will remove the icon on the desktop and move it to the trash. You can empty the trash later.

    I hope this helps.

  • How to add a new dimension in the ASO cube without losing all the data

    Hello

    I have an ASO cube with 18 dimensions and I want to add a new (regular). When I add this new dimension he asked me that data all have cleared out before the restructuring can take place. If I click Yes then I would lose all data, regardless of the fact if I export Level0 or not. Because when I tried to reload the export in the cube, he gave me a cause of error all the sides were not present export. Does anyone know how I would be able to accomplish this task?


    Thank you
    Mickael

    You can try this work around solution.

    (1) export data from Lev0
    (2) delete the cube
    (3) add the new regular dimension.
    (4) add a default member Reg00 in the new dimension and save.
    (5) open Lev0 data in a text editor, insert 'Reg00' at the beginning of the file and enter.
    (6) Lev0 file will first record 'Reg00' and the remaining export file will be of the second disk.
    (7) load the file changed with a rules file.

    You can check all your history data will be loaded w.r.to the Reg00 of the new regular dimension.
