Can't get Vista Home to Windows 7 family because of System Mechanic 6 (does not delete)

When I try to upgrade to windows 7 the installer detects mechanic system 6 and no response.  I've done the research and cannot locate this program on my laptop.  Not only that, but I never knew I had it all first.  Any ideas on how I can find this file to remove or uninstall?

    How can I get the airplay icon to appear? Changing the settings of firewall does not work

    Hello Drjoe378,

    I understand that you do not see the AirPlay icon in iTunes on your Mac. If you have verified that your firewall is disabled or that the problem occurs regardless of the status of your firewall, there is a little more that can help return your ability to connect to AirPlay devices.

    1. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes and Apple TV software.
    2. Connect your computer and other devices on the same network Wi - Fi. If you are using Ethernet, connect the two devices on the same router or hub. If you use the Wi - Fi and Ethernet, plug your device AirPlay the same router that your computer uses for Wi - Fi.
    3. Restart your computer, device AirPlay and network router.
    4. Because some Airplay devices include a power switch for AirPlay option, look for the option in the settings and make sure that the feature is enabled. Refer to the user guide of the device for more information.

    Use AirPlay to stream content from iTunes on your computer wireless

    Firefox 36 is seriously broken

    He updated on my computer and now does not work. I tried all the suggestions and no help... don't come back to IE

    Hi wskossack, I'm sorry to hear that you have problems with Firefox 36. I also regret that we have not been able to get this working for you yet.

    If what you really want is to uninstall Firefox we can do. Of course, I have to ask if you'd be willing to let my help allows you to get the most up to the working version of Firefox. But Firefox is all about the ability to customize. If you want we can install the latest version of Firefox and you can use it until the next version comes out or while we work to get 36 Firefox works for you. I will try to cover all the options in my answer.

    First of all, I turn the uninstall of Firefox. If you want to watch the article click here that this can be done in 7 steps

    I would recommend that you completely uninstall Firefox and install again. This will fix likely problems you have right now. Because you're asking how to do this, I'll assume that you have not tried this.

    If you have Vista or Windows 7:

    (1) close all open Firefox Windows.

    (2) at the start menu click Control Panel

    (3) click on uninstall a program

    (4) from this list chose Firefox

    (5) click on uninstall (they are located up turds)
    If the uninstall wizard does not work, you can start it manually by running helper.exe, located in one of these locations by default:
    (32-bit Windows) C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe
    (64-bit Windows) C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe

    (6) in the Firefox uninstall wizard click Next and on the next page, click Uninstall and then click on finish

    (7) to remove other files and folders that cannot be removed by uninstall it, you must manually remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations by default:

       (32-bit Windows) C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
       (64-bit Windows) C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    

    The uninstall program removes all the data user such as history or bookmarks. To completely remove these data, you must manually delete the folder containing your Firefox user profile:

       Click the Windows Start button.
    
       Type %APPDATA% in the search field and press enter to open the hidden Roaming folder.
    
       Open the Mozilla folder
    

    .

       Delete the Firefox folder.
    

    Now, I'll go on how to get the latest version of Firefox installed on your computer. If you want to watch the article click here . If you decide that's what you want please read the article for more information security helpless.

    Firefox 35.0.1 was the latest version of Firefox, and you can get it by clicking here . The link is also in the article. If you do this, you will need to disable the automatic update. To do this, go to options, then go to advance. The title of the advance, there will be a subtab. You want to go to update. You can then select never check or to tell you when there is an update.

    So the only thing left is for me to help you with any problem you are having with Firefox 36. I hope that you will give me a chance. In any case, if you need more information or help with everything I went please let me know.

    Can someone give me an answer to confirm if netbooks with Windows XP Home, Vista Home Edition, Windows 7 starter (these BONES other than professional or company) be used in a business, connected to the server environment to share files?

    I read somewhere that these permits cannot connect to a domain, is this true?

    Of coz these OS has not input parameters are even to join a domain, how can they connect?

    CAN, that my understanding of that statement means that it cannot be connected to a domain server, means that the netbook cannot be connected to the server to access files shared server?

    Can the netbook share files with other computers (vice versa), other than a domain server, on a network of companies?

    So what my final question is a netbook can exist in an enterprise environment? What's a standalone machine?

    I'm not able to get an answer very Microsoft Singapore confirm after the call to them.

    Hello Bob w. NY

    Click on the Start button and type capture in the search box menu star. The cutting tool application should appear at the top of the search results.

    As the cutting tool is an integral part of Windows, you might have to reinstall windows to return to the tool. Assuming, of course, you had accidentally deleted.

    How can I get Vista "Windows Mail" to check mail using my connection local (LAN) internet?

    It allows only wants to "connect" using dial-up, wireless or wired ISP (type PPP) requiring a UID and password, of which none seem to allow me to select a LAN (ISP) simple (without a password).

    I know that the Ethernet connection works Ok, because I can use it with a standard Web browser; only the mail tool can't seem to see or use.

    Whenever I tell the Windows Mail email 'Send and receive', he wants to 'connect' for remote access or one of his three choices (listed above and direct exclusion of any connection to the local network).  It works with remote access, so once I have spend that I should be Ok. but I can't make it work directly.

    Help.

    In Windows Mail, go to select Tools, accounts, your account email, properties, connection.  It shows for the connection?  You
    should leave this setting not selected, in which case Windows Mail will use the IE connection uses.
     
    In addition, under Tools, Options, connection, the first checkbox must be checked, and the second box unchecked.
     
    If everything which withdraws, but you still have the problem, the account may be damaged.  Remove account, restart Windows Mail,.
    then recreate the account.
