Impossible to change the wallpaper in Windows 7 Starter.
original title: Windows 7 Starter wallpaper!
Seriously one you can't change the wallpaper on Windows 7 starter. Of course, that I understand that this version of Windows is expected to be very light on has to run smoothly on netbooks... but F---ing screen? Microsoft remembers that they always write operating systems right? My dinosaur, Nokia cell phone from 5 years ago allow you to change the wallpapers. They left the gadget feature but no background screen! This really proves to me that Microsoft has absolutely no idea of what they do. Windows 7 comes on just about all netbook now from this current holiday season. So here's my question... Why would anyone want a netbook windows 7 when XP (earlier than prior windows operating system 7) had more features it does? Apple is looking for better and better. I don't even have a netbook for Christmas, and even though I really wanted one, I'm very happy that I don't have. I'm not going to get one at all now if its windows 7 on it. I'll wait for the Apple tablet, and that's all. What do you mean Microsoft?
Hello socratesman,
Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers community.
In Windows 7 Starter, you are not allowed to change the wallpaper. You can't even replace the image by default by another because the system compares the hash of file of your background desired with the hash of the file of the default wallpaper.
You need to upgrade to a more full version of Windows 7:

on windows 7 starter edition how can I open an admin account, I have a standart account and I couldn't open any software on computer please help me.even change user account cannot be opened.
Hi kuentin,.
Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!
(1) - what do you mean you have only 1 user account?
When you set up Windows, you will need to create a user account. This account is an administrator account to allow you to set up your computer and install any programs that you want to use. And that's why the user account you are using is the administrator account.
There is no way that you can create an administrator account, or by using a Standard account.
(2) are you having issues during installation of the software or opening it?
(3) what exactly happens when you try to open the software application?
(4) should be codes error or error messages, if any?
(5) what software are you trying to install or open?
I suggest you go to the link below and read for more information on user accounts.

I don't know if it's the right place to ask, but MS is a joke that I have to upgrade my new height of about $119 the Win 7 Starter netbook that accompanies it? I'm having flashbacks on the disks 'step-up' to buy every week it seemed to BACK 6... was it? Man, I'm sad.
Hello
Just to clarify things a little.
Originally, very early in the beta version of Windows 7 (Jan/Feb 2009), Microsoft drew the Windows 7 Starter edition for new markets the technology like Windows XP Starter and Windows Vista starter editions have been designed. It was OEM that pushed Microsoft companies to make the Windows 7 Starter edition available for OEM Netbook market.
Microsoft responded by the Starter edition available for OEMs and replaced by the basic edition of Windows 7 Home Edition for emerging technology markets. The restrictions contained in the Starter edition were well known and announced at least 6 months.
You can upgrade the Windows 7 Starter to Home Premium edition for about 80 USD, using Windows Anytime Upgrade.
I hope this helps.
Thank you for using Windows 7 Ronnie Vernon MVP

I updated level of windows 7 starter edition to professional but I want to go back to the starter. How do I go about it. I also want to know how can I get my product number and the activation number.
New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.
This is how the recovery partition is available for the most popular brands
For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device
For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device
For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward
For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo
For Samsung: Press the F4 key to the Samsung logo when you turn first.
For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.
Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

How can you change a text in an image?
How can you change a text in an image?
Hi Jasper,.
It depends on how the text has been staged, and what has been done with the image after that.
A quick test - what happens when you zoom in on, or enlarge the image?
If the text retains its edges when amplified, then it can probably be edited separately from the image. If the text begins to show pixelation on the edges (like the picture), then there is no text to change, what looks like adding text is actually part of the image and can only be changed in the same way that you can change anywhere in the image.
Here is an example:
The photo is a photo (jpeg format), inserted in a Pages document created with the essay template. White text in the upper left corner of the photo is placed in a text box. To put the photo on this page (and the text on and around it) has been converted to a PNG file. When it is enlarged on this screen, the text finally a pixelated image...
.. .the easily noticed in the thin relates diagonal 'o'.
In Pages, however, the text and the picture are separated, and the text is a vector image - mathematically trained and scalable.
The text here is contained in a text box and the text box was grouped with the photo. To change the text (in Pages), I need to:
- Click on the text.
Handles will appear in the corners of the selection.
That click you select either the entire image OR just simply the text box.- IF the handles are blue x characters, the selection is locked
Go organize (menu) > Unlock
Sectionals unlocked handles are small white squares.
- IF the handles are blue x characters, the selection is locked
- IF the selection includes the entire image
- Go to the menu, rearrange and choose ungroup
If the choice to separate is not available, the text may be part of the image and uneditable as text.
Try to click twice (separated from the clicks, not double click).
If the insertion point (|) is now in the text, the text is editable as text.
Change the text.
- Go to the menu, rearrange and choose ungroup
- IF the selection looks like a text box and does not the whole image
- Click on the text to place the insertion point (]) in the text
Change the text.
- Click on the text to place the insertion point (]) in the text
Image showing the insertion point in the text in a text box on the image:
Kind regards
