Can I remove updates safely from the last 3 years for Microsoft and windows? From Add/Remove programs

I was in my Add/Remove programs and I see updates 3 years back for windows and microsoft and they take place, so I would like to know if it is safe to delete all of these updates from my computer. If they are updates would be the most ancient not be updated to a newer version. I was told not to ever take off, but they fill the computer then why we have to keep?

  • Can I use easy transfer of the hard disk Vista for 64-bit Windows 7 computer?

    My computer laptop 32 bit vista is dead, but the hard drive is intact.  I can access it using a disk blacx disk drive hard usb.  All files seem to be good.  I gave the disc all permissions for changes, etc., so that it is not just to read only.  He sees my new laptop running windows 7 64 bit.  I found files in the record Office of the old drive so that part works.

    I tried to use easy transfer in windows 7.  Installed on the old disk of vista.  But I can't launch the vista easy transfer since this computer is dead.

    Is there a way I can transfer my emails, photos, documents and the itune files?

    Thank you.

    You can use Knoppixhttp://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html with a good ISO as Copier: http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm as well as a blank CD (made on a different computer).  This should give you sufficient access to the Vista system 'dead' (if you can not get in any other way) backup/transfer your important data (like everything else you mentioned) to the one you use (an external hard drive, flash player,...). You will not be able to save your settings or your programs because they require the enforcement system to use easy transfer and regular functions copy and paste will do the trick. If Knoppix doesn't work, try slaving the hard drive to another computer, and then after the data you want to save it.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • I can't find my old emails that is to say the last 4 years e-mails have disappeared. I can't see in the 'archives' folder list and also in my list of "local" files

    I can't find my old emails that is to say the last 4 years e-mails have disappeared. I can't see in the 'archives' folder list and also in my list of "local" files
    I recently formatted my system. It causes this problem? Is there anyway to recover my emails?

    Assuming that really format you your hard drive.
    Can erase you every single entry to a file, message, photo, program, document, etc. When you select format you get warnings on this subject.
    The format is the last thing you want to do without going through a backup of your personal and important files.

    Local folders is automatically created when you installed Tbird.
    And it is empty until you move something over there.
    (Your former local folder with all its files and messages has been removed under format).

    Only messages that are still on your server (stbeehive.oracle.com) can be recovered.

    You cannot specify both 'ALL' and ' FROM/UNTIL TIME '.

    Also if you want the archivelogs generated in the last 5 minutes, you should use TIME.

    If you want the archivelogs generated until 5 minutes ago (and not the last archivelogs), you should use up to the HOUR.

  • Lose the ability to access Internet after Windows updates published in the last 24 hours

    I lose the internet connection if I install the Windows updates published in the last 24 hours.  I have had access to the internet after restoring to a restore point.   I was able to recreate this problem be reinstall them again.

    Update the example is KB2121546

    Manually install a - alone.
    Reset.
     
    Still have Internet?
     
    Manually install the next one, one.
    Reset.
     
    Still have Internet?
     
    Repeat this until you lose Internet or have installed all updates - what comes first.  If you lose Internet - uninstall that one and install all others (using the same one at a time - at the most method you will have 8-9 for this cycle) then come here and let everyone know what update was kill your Internet connection.
     
    Why?  An update of the example is of no help.  There are 9 updates you could possibly have * if * you were aware through yesterday.  Knowing the SPECIFIC update that is causing your problem would be better for you and those who help you.

  • My update screen shows the last control updates has been 14.6.16 to the 08.01 and the update to install has been KB3035583 on 25.5.16 to 23.02.

    * Original title: look for the updates ms7

    My update screen shows the last control updates has been 14.6.16 to the 08.01 and the update to install has been KB3035583 on 25.5.16 to 23.02.  Since 14 June I repeatedly ran checks the updates, but these controls are never successful as never - end research I just saw the "check updates" message, but the check never ends.   Why is this?

    The Windows Update client cannot manage a KB3161664. Download and install it manually in advance. Links provided here:

    Don't know if you've discovered this done yet for you, but I would say it is your usb flash drive. It happens when he is out BEFORE you used the 'Safely remove' icon on the taskbar.

    If it is, then you must copy any information on the USB key to another location and format the USB. Then you can copy the info on it and you're right to go!

    This will continue to happen sometimes even though you have the properties/policies defined in a quick deletion. I got mine the value of the radio button performance and ALWAYS use the icon REMOVE safe in your taskbar. Once you find that your data will be corrupted if is not removed properly, even if the ssd is supposed to be "hot." If you have a usb key that has a light on it, wait for the light to STOP BLINKING before removing it. If you do not have a light on this issue, it is always advisable to wait a second or two after the popup window say you that it is save to remove your USB.

    See you soon

  • XP - can I both Microsoft and Windows updates?

    I get automatic updates from Microsoft and Windows.

    Should I have them both!

    VIC Luci

    Yes.


    What are the differences between Windows updates and automatic updates from Microsoft Updates?

    While Windows Update provides updates specifically for Windows, Microsoft Update expands the service to download and install updates for other Microsoft software, such as Microsoft Office and Windows Live [as well as Silverlight & Microsoft Security Essentials]. Update automatic is a feature that allows you to configure your PC to automatically download and install updates using each service, making it easy and convenient for you to keep your current Windows PC.
