  Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

• How to create a recovery image using the key of Windows 8?

  Confusion of title: original backup

  I bought Windows 8 online... downloaded and installed.

  When Windows Update 8.1 is available, the Microsoft support team made this update remotely... as I was part of the people having problems.

  I would like to make a recovery disk, but I thought the key for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 will be different.

  Do I have to re - install Win8 and then perform the update 8.1 in case of failure of the system because of the issue?

  Can I make a picture of the current installation to reinstall?

  Hello Terry,

• Windows Update will not install the hotfix on Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 KB3122648

  Hello

  I tried several times to install "MS16-019: Description of the update of security for .NET Framework 3.5.1 in Windows 7 Service Pack 1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1" on a Windows Server 2008 R2, running Service Pack 1

  Windows Update has always ends with 'Failure' / has encountered an unknown error. Code 80073712

  The convenience store has not solved it either.

  The server is not really exposed to 'outside' as such, runs in a local network, regular, small; but sometimes, a web browser may be in use.

  Is there anything that can / should be done here to remedy the failure of the installation? Or free time and even not to worry about this?

  It would be great to have a few strong indications here. Thank you!

  System File Checker shows errors that are likely to cause problems with Windows Update. I would like to reinstall Windows Server 2008. That said, I have no direct experience of Windows Server 2008, so I'm not really able to help you.

  Original title: first installation

  purchase windows 7 Home premium full version IM on best buy and I want to know if something happens to my pc and I reinstall windows 7 again once that I have to use a new product key or can I still use the same serial number im dvd original buy next week?

  You can reinstall as many times as you like on the same PC. No need for a new product key.

  There is a slight chance after the 5th reinstall or significant physical changes, you may need to reactivate by phone:

  1) click Start and in the search for box type: slui.exe 4
   
  (2) press the ENTER"" key.
   
  (3) select your "country" in the list.

• Floppy disks to install Windows have a related key or can I use the key with any disk?

  Re Activation:

  I help people of disabnled. My blind customer has an OEM version completely crushed of XP and a damaged hard disk, so because there is no CD or the way to reinstall XP, I found an installation CD and, separately, a product code given to me by another disabled person who has dumped his computer and bought a new one. Each CD has its own code of tied product, or can they be separated like this?

  Also is it possible to check a product code to ensure that it is valid and available for use?

  I said yesterday a nearly identical request!

  The machine should have a COA sticker on it (assuming that it is a large manufacturer or pre-installed).

  The key is that the machine is 'owner' and must be valid.

  If the machine is one of the major manufacturers, you can buy recovery discs on their part for this machine, which will restore it to its original state.

  The disks do NOT have a key on them - any drive OEM System Builder for the same edition of XP (Home or Pro) should work well on this machine - but certainly, you will need to download the drivers for it if you get the recovery disks. (once - again see the site of the manufacturer for those)

• Satellite Pro A100 - no restore CD - can I use the key to Toshiba?

  Hi all

  I bought quite old friend Satellite Pro A100 laptop and lost windows XP Pro CD,
  I have the product key.

  Can I get Windows xp pro eng cd somewhere and install it on my laptop with my cd key?

  Thanks for your help

  Hello

  The serial key you found at the bottom of the device belongs to the Windows OS preinstalled Toshiba and touches it s an OEM that will NOT work with the other disks in Windows XP.

  This means that if you want to install Windows XP on this notebook then you buy the Toshiba recovery disc again the ASP in your country or you will take an original Microsoft Win XP disc and will use this disk and the key that belongs to this Win XP OS.

  You have these two options.

• Can I reuse the key of Windows 7 Professional?

  Hey,.

  Been using Windows 7 for a few months now and I must say, im absolutely love it.
  The other day, while visiting some dubious sites offering a video converter, I got a virus.
  Now, I tried AVG and an anti-spyware program, and both can detect the virus but not effectively deal with it.
  I find myself with a frustrating user experience which includes Windows crashes, a lot of notifications and general performance slowdown, on what is a fast laptop. I'm tired of trying to patch up things and think that the best method would be to format the HARD drive and reinstall Windows.
  Now, my question is, when I reinstall Windows, my product key will be reusable?
  I picked up my copy of Windows 7 on the offer of £30 student and am concerned about the use of the license.
  Like what I do, can I disable Windows somehow, then reinstall it just use the same key?
  Someone at - it advice on the system would work?
  Thank you.

  Hello

  Product key Windows 7 (license) is constant, it never expires. You can reuse the key as many times as you want, as long as the operating system is installed on a single computer at a time.

  The student version of Windows 7 is the retail version upgrade. You will need to perform the installation in the same way that you did when you originally installed it.

  The product key that you used to activate the first installation is maintained on Microsoft Activation servers. After the reinstallation, you may need to perform a manual activation, which means that you may need to use the phone option when you activate. Here are the instructions for a manual activation.

  1. from the desktop, press the button of the Windows Logo + R. This will bring up the run dialog box.

  2. in the Open: box, type slui 4 and press OK. This starts the manual activation wizard.

  3 select your country from the drop down and click Next.

  4. the wizard displays a toll-free telephone number. Leave the wizard open on the computer and call this phone number.

  You will receive a few saved options. Select the option to speak to a representative.

  The representative will manually activate this system for you.

  Let us know if you have any problems more

• can't buy the key to Windows Media Center

  I am trying to add the Media Center functionality to my installation of Windows 8 Pro.  I go through the motions of purchasing the key and after I sent my details (I tried paypal and credit card) I get the message saying "sorry we were not able to complete your order...

  We were not able to check your order online.  Please buy a product key from a retailer close to you. »
  Now, I would be happy to go to a store and spend $9.99 for a WMC key except cannot be bought in the shop.  The only way to buy the key of the WMC is via "Add features" in my Windows 8 Pro.
  A Microsoft person please explain what is happening and perhaps I can buy the elusive WMC key?
  Thank you
  Nick

  Hi Nick,

  I apologize for the difficulty that you have faced all trying to buy Media Center for Windows 8 Pro pack feature key.

  In the present case is apparently caused by an error either in the Microsoft Account, you use the method of payment set up in this account.

  Both of your posts, I couldn't know if payments have crossed in the attempts you have made to buy the feature pack. I believe that the payment would not, however, if it is different, please let us know.

  Try using a different credit card when buying the feature pack? This could cause questions sometimes.

  The next step, I would suggest would be to use an another Microsoft Account to connect to Windows 8 Pro and try to add the feature pack for this account. You can create a new user in your Windows 8 Pro against another email address that you may have and check if you are able to add the feature pack for this account.

  In addition, if you have a student Email ID, you could try to create a user account on the computer in the face of this E-mail ID and check if that allows you to buy and add the feature pack.

  I'll wait to see if these steps help you to solve this problem. Don't let us know the State, we are happy to be of assistance. Have a good day ahead!

• Can not use the laptop as Windows 10 use 90% of the hard drive, what can I do in addition to using an external hard drive?

  Dell Inspiron 14-3000 Series

  I have this laptop. My question is why do you want to sell a computer with 32 GB drive hard when you know that the OS will seize 20 GB? How am I supposed to use this computer? I can't upgrade the HD and why I should buy an external drive for a laptop?

  So, I'm totally confused.

  This isn't a real laptop - it is a glorified tablet/internet device.  It is fine as a Windows to replace a chromebook, but forget not run anything challenging about it - it is designed for one purpose: be inexpensive.
