  Hello. I use XP how long I can. Impossible to use ie8 a lot. Microsoft crippled it. So I'll use Firefox. Much faster. And the people who made that browser must be smarter than those of Microsoft. Microsoft has deliberately left the extra things for XP that could keep it around. They must sell 8. I hate Virtual Box for systems I use regularly. I use it to check the other operating systems like Linux, dud ReactOS, Windows 95, etc.. Windows XP is great.

• Questions about reinstalling Windows XP after the end of Support

  Several members of the family of my friends that I sometimes provide technical assistance for are still under XP SP3 on their systems.  These systems are too outdated and underpowered to upgrade to a newer version of Windows, and it will probably be some time until they are able to upgrade to a more recent hardware capable of running most modern versions of Windows.

  If in the meantime, something happens to one of their computers requiring a reinstall of Windows after support for XP purposes, but before they can get a newer computer, I have a few questions about what will happen:

  1. Is there still a way to activate their existing copies of XP during installation process?
  2. While I understand that new patches, updates, patches & will be is no longer provided, existing patches will be available through the Microsoft Update service so that I would be able to get those computers to update state that they would be about to XP supported ends, or do I have to search elsewhere to try & find these updates?  (It would be nice if Microsoft put up a cumulative update that would be sort of a mega-patch for people in this situation to be able to get back to the most current state systems, but I would not be surprised if there wasn't such a thing).

  Anyone know the answers to these questions?

  Thank you

  You should be able to clean install and activate Windows XP.  You should be able to upgrade as well, even if the wise move would be to get the updates stored on portable media or integrated into a multimedia installation (or both) as soon as POSSIBLE if the plan is to continue using Windows XP for a while.

  My suggestion is to set up and to buy Windows 7 Professional renovated systems / lease from places like TigerDirect.com - as pricing is generally about the same as just a license for Windows 7 or a little professional, the hardware specifications of these machines are likely machines Windows XP current in use, using something like the PC Mover take care of Laplink and Microsoft to move files (or for the more than 25 USD the) applications that can be moved as well) to the new system of the former is possible, and Windows 7 will get updated until 2020.

  Recently research I've seen systems to Windows 7 Professional for as little as 150 USD with 4 GB of memory and dual core processors.  Not bad.

• I will be able to reinstall my windows if necessary after the end of support for Windows 7?

  Original title: windows supports

  Last year, I bought Windows7 Home Premium and it works well so far. My question is after January 2020 (after the end of support) I will be able to reinstall my windows if neede? Also if there is no microsoft activation problem help me right here? Also even if the support of the application ends with its suppliers I will be able to download mse, it's to say & essentials of windows from the microsoft Web site myself since the automatic update is not available? or I'll be forced to buy Windows 8, 9, 10 or 11 at this time? Sorry people I know that this issue is too early and not be worried right now but I love windows 7 and I want to run for life so is this possible? Thanks in advance.

  1. Yes, you will be able to reinstall Win7 using the disks provided with your computer, the rescue disks, you have created and/or the hidden restore partition.

  2. where support for Win7 purposes, take in charge ends (for example, activation problems).

  3. There will come a time where the current version of Windows (Live) Essentials is not supported in Win7 - even if your currently installed version of Windows Essentials may continue to be supported for some time.

  4. by the time for purposes of Win7 support, chances are THAT MSE is no longer supported.

  5. No, you don't will be not "forced to buy" a new version of Windows (assuming that Microsoft is still for sale).

• Activation after the end of support?

  It will be possible to reactivate an installation of Windows XP after the end of the support in 2014? I intend to keep an XP system to run old programs and worry about what happens if I need to reinstall it.

  When MS XP launched in 2001, they promised that the activation would be available to certain (undefined) point in the future, date at which they would make available a patch to remove the requirement.

  I believe that to be the case.

• When and what can expect to happen to my computer after the end of support for windows XP?

  What is Pageheap?

  The answer to your direct question, when you think that say you, is a Google search away.

  -It is not supported to Microsoft for an operating system you probably have to worry.

  It is your own ability to stay static, I want a computer faster, better equipment, a new printer, scanner, camera, etc.

  The manufacturer of the software or hardware that you use every day will probably abandon Windows XP well before the April 2014 date when Microsoft stops by releasing the same critical patches for Windows XP.

  Their new printers will have only Windows Vista drivers, maybe just Windows 7.

  Their new scanners, cameras, etc. will be the same.

  I don't see the major software companies (AutoDesk, Apple, Adobe, etc.) continues to produce products that would work on Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 and what comes next in 2014.

  Everyone always loves to find a single entity to blame for their reluctance to change with technology - but usually it's just the changing world overall - not a single instance of it.

  Having said that - there are many people who still use Windows 98 twelve down on the line.

  They can't see certain things on certain web pages, cannot use certain devices, they might be able to pick up at their local drug/warehouse, even store and using the latest versions of major software packages are probably a lost - cause but they do very well in their microcosm.

  So - it mainly depends on you and your ability to do not change.

• Can I still use Windows journal, if I have the handwriting recognition and just type my text with the default keyboard input?

  I have a Gateway laptop computer and I tried to use Windows journal without handwriting recognition.  So, he feels a bit lame that I can't understand how to enter text with my default keyboard or whatever it takes.  I think I'm pretty computer, so maybe I am an annomaly of persanal that seems to happen to me a lot!  Thus, any help I can get with this problem would be cool.  I type to fast however, just hunt and Peck, so please be patient.  Thanks in advance!

  Best regards, bryznet

  Hi bryznet

   

  Windows Journal is part of the Group of Tablet PC accessories. It is not a keyboard application.
  It is an application ink for taking notes of ink and writing to text conversion.
  If you want to simply type in the text, you can use a word such as Notepad or Microsoft Office Word application.

  If you want a combination of features of ink and/or the text of note taking, then watch Microsoft OneNote (think of it as Notepad Word, OneNote is)

  I hope this helps.

• Activation of Windows after the end of support

  The question is what will happen with the activation of windows once microsoft stops supporting windows vista or other windows like windows 7?

  For example, that I will continue to use vista for older games and software, but sometimes there is no need to reinstall if something is wrong (I had problems with the updates and reinstaled vista, after that it works well). And my scanner is not scanning software for windows 7, so I need old Windows.

• How can I access my PhotoShop files after the end of my free trial? (Mac OS)

  How can I? Support cat Adobe said they couldn't help me. I don't think I pay Adobe PhotoShop to access the files that I legally own (must love what they teach you all copyright to the school) who are on my own personal computer. This isn't the biggest deal in the world, but I spent a few hours on the files.

  The files must be stored on your computer.
