• Disable automatic restart after Windows Update for the home edition of Windows 8 forced

  I use Windows 8 home edition.  I want to keep automatic updates turned on, but I don't want my computer restarts automatically after some Windows updates are installed.

  I am aware that there is a notification on the lock screen, indicating that a reboot is needed, but normally, I keep my computer on all the time and don't ever see this notification.  There are no notifications on the desktop until 15 minutes before the forced restart.  Still, he seems to be at an inopportune time and translates into loss of work.

  I saw messages and articles describing the methods of disabling restarting forced on different versions of Windows by changing the registry keys or by using the Group Policy Editor.  But Windows 8 Home edition does not have the registry key mentioned nor has he a Group Policy Editor.

  Is there a way to display the notification on the desktop even more in advance?

  Is it possible to postpone indefinitely or completely disable the forced reboot?

  I get an error message "Windows cannot find gpedit.msc", probably because I have the Home version and not Pro (even though I really don't like about the reason, I get the error, to be honest).  Which unfortunately for Member States does nothing to increase the probability that I'm going to buy the Pro version (of Win8 or any later version) and instead reduced the probability that I will never buy another product of MS at all.  If anything this behavior makes more sense to a professional (i.e. IT Department coordinated group policy settings) rather than a home setting, so for me to have no way to remove/fix this "feature" really turns me off purchase Windows for domestic use.

  Oh if you have a House version, you will get the editors of group policy.  Actually, politics made the most sense for users.  Send the editorial at MS, not me.

  You mean just Microsoft wordpad or Microsoft office Word?
  for the processor, you will need to purchase Microsoft Office,
  http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/default.aspx

  If wordpad, Word perhaps is not installed by default. (Check in the start menu-> all programs-> Accessories-> wordpad)
  to install wordpad, go to the dashboard-> Add / Remove programs.
  In this window, you can see the option "Add or remove windows components" on the left side of the window, click on that.
  another window will open. If this control Word is available. If it is available, then check and install. (it may ask for the Windows CD).
  alternative is, put your windows CD, then will come a Setup window automatically. (if it didn't, do it manually by the opening of the Conference on disarmament.
  In this window, you can display options such as window installation, compatibility, add windows etc.
  Click Add windows components. Select the word, and then install.

  org 3.3. is an alternative for microsoft office word and is not a microsoft product.

  Thank you!!

• Impossible to COPY or PASTE in any Application in the home edition of Windows XP - SP2-

  Hi - I am running Windows XP HOME EDITION SP2 and had this problem for almost a year without anyone able to help me solve this problem

  I am unable to COPY or PASTE in any application (IE, CHROME, MS WORD, NOTEPAD, WORDPAD, etc.)
  I ran SFC/scannow several times and still no resolution
  My laptop is free of virus and malware... NO VIRUSES, NO MALWARE
  What system files or DLLs are associated with being able to COPY / PASTE?
  I can CUT but not PASTE
  Thanks - Derek

  OK, this is totally weird, I just went to CP - INTERNET OPTIONS - SECURITY TAB, CUSTOM LEVEL and changed "Do drag OR copy and paste files" Enable PROMPT

  and now I can copy and paste.
  We'll see how long it lasts for
  I went there before and changed to ENABLE DISABLE, OUTPUT AND THEN CHANGE BACK to ACTIVATE, and which never helped before

• Can manage Windows XP Home Edition of Windows 8? Get the error codes for the security updates (0 x 643). ALL through Microsoft Tech INFECTED with the virus and Trojans tried. I need help BADLY. Thank you.

  I tried every thing blessed with technology microsoft... always hanging in limbo here.  Tired of doing constant comprehensive analyses, etc. in order to remove the constant threats.  Apparently my McAfee can't stay with her either.  Need help with the download/repair these seeds as soon as possible.  Thanks to all those who wish to help me - it would be that popular, for sure!

  The question makes no sense.

  "Can manage Windows XP Home Edition of Windows 8?"

  Two problems: there is no Windows 8 and even if there were, Windows XP Home Edition would not not 'manage '.  ;-)

  I drop McAfee for a few different freeware products.  Or better yet I'd get two products 'cost' (~ 25 and 60 dollars) and install them and use them in the future - but WHEN you are trying to clean up.

  You seem like you maybe sincerely - at a time when a format/install of Windows XP/patching/installation of applications/patch/restore backups of your data is the best course of action.

  However, if you are willing to work - maybe we can at least get things cleaned up to a certain point where you can get a good backup before doing this (otherwise avoid doing all together.)

  In the order shown, do not jump (no matter what you do, what you have done in the past, etc.) ...

  First of all - download, install, operate and put to update and then run a full system scan with the following two (one at a time, reboot in-between):

  • MalwareBytes (FREE)
  • SuperAntiSpyware (FREE)

  After you perform a full scan with one then the other and remove anything they have all two are completely, you can uninstall these products, if you wish.  This initiative will allow to check there is no malware floating around your system which could cause problems.  If you ask - no, Norton probably does not protect you from what these applications can find.

  Download and run the MSRT tool manually:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/malwareremove/default.mspx
  (Ignore the details and download the tool to download and save to your desktop, run it.)

  Reset.

  Search online with eSet Online Scanner.

  Reset.

  Download/install the latest program Windows installation (for your operating system):
  (Windows XP 32-bit: WindowsXP-KB942288-v3 - x 86 .exe )
  (Download and save it to your desktop, run it.)

  Reset.

  and...

  Download the latest version of Windows Update (x 86) agent here:
  http://go.Microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=91237
  ... and save it to the root of your C:\ drive. After you register on the root of the C:\ drive, follow these steps:

  Close all Internet Explorer Windows and other applications.

  AutoScan--> RUN and type:
  %SystemDrive%\windowsupdateagent30-x86.exe /WUFORCE
  --> Click OK.

  (If asked, select 'Run'). --> Click on NEXT--> select 'I agree' and click NEXT--> where he completed the installation, click "Finish"...

  Reset.

  Now try usig the Fixit (Yes - try to use it again) to reset your Windows Components Update (you'll do the aggressive version, not the other):
  How to reset the Windows Update components?

  Reset.

  CHKDSK
  How to scan your disks for errors* will take time and a reboot.

  Defragment
  How to defragment your hard drives* will take time

  Reset.

  Now, open Internet Explorer, visit http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ and do a CUSTOM search for updates.  Install any critical/high-priority ones and - for now - to ignore all those in option (always do this for material updates optional here.)

  Restart if necessary and continue to visit this web page until you have not yet updated to high priority.

  Now - if your problem is with the facilities of the .NET Framework...  You can end up with something like:
  http://blogs.msdn.com/b/astebner/archive/2008/08/28/8904493.aspx
  to uninstall a few versions of the .NET Framework, then you can try to install again - but you should not do this until the machine is supposed to be cleaned.

• Where can I find the full list of the features of Windows XP Home Edition and Windows XP Professional

  Could you please direct me to the Microsoft Documents where I can find detailed specifications and characteristics of the two operating systems:

  (1) Windows XP Home Edition

  (2) Windows XP Professional Edition

  Thank you

  Hello Roman

  Thanks for the clarification on the "new computer".

  If, as you say, the card mother and any other material is compatible XP then by all means install Windows XP on this machine. As you said you "my idea is to get the XP and keep as long as possible, even after support ceased in 2014, because I like it better than any other operating system." You have been made aware of possible problems concerning the lack of support and you are ready to accept those. The only problem is to get a copy of Windows XP from a reliable source. Unfortunately, I can't help you with that. Personally, I prefer to get my software direct from the manufacturer or by a reliable retailer. As no other retailer has copies of Windows XP you are, unfortunately, has left the search for credible resource on the web.

  My note to the subject of sticking with Windows 7 or 8 on your new computer has been in regards to your initial comment to a "new computer". I have two computers that are running Windows 7 and Windows 8, but then again maybe I need the additional machines and you do not have.

  I have to admit that Windows XP is a great operating system, and to be honest, I also use it on a virtual machine on one of my PC. However it is more for support reasons than the generalization on my part.

  Windows 7 get some getting used to, but I found it a usable operating system. Windows 8, however, is an altogether different beast. You love or hate it and judging by the comments on the Microsoft forums many people hate everything simply. Yet once I used it since the first beta of the operating system, so I'm used to it.

  I agree with voluntary J on Windows XP Mode. This is useful if you have applications that are not compatible with Windows 7. However, as you said in your reply to J to volunteer, you must upgrade to Windows 7 Professional. You can run Windows XP on a virtual machine, with, say, Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 (as a free option); However, you should always buy a copy of XP and new Virtual Machines have some restrictions, especially when it comes to certain types of hardware connected to your PC. Maybe your best bet, if you prefer to upgrade would be to use Windows XP from Windows 7 mode.

  I hope that you succeed in your quest for a reliable copy of Windows XP

• I have a portable home edition of windows xp and that you forgot the password

  I bought a computer dell laptop years directly from Dell. I do not forget passwords including the administrator one... any suggestions? Dell is likely to help? I have windows xp home edition. All ideas are welcome

  If you are running XP Home, chances are you're confused about two things:

  1. the administrator account (the real NAME of this default account is administrator!)
  2. the ordinary account connect you to, who happens to have administrator privileges.
  Start mode (F8 method) safe. Choose the account NAMED administrator. Suppose then that the password is empty; Press the Enter key. Then you should have access to ALL accounts.
  If this does not work, you will have to Google for solutions to "clear or reset your password XP."

• I try to install XP Home Edition on Windows 7

  Hello, I've been everywhere trying to solve the problem below and hope you can help me.

  I have a HP Pavilion Elite - HPE 180 t - Win 7 64 bit OS.

  System Info 9 physical memory GB - memory Modules 5 - video Card1.8GB GeForct NVIDIA GTX 260 (2 DVI, HDMI and VGA adapters) - Intel(R) Core (TM) i7 CPU 950 @3. 07 GHz - 8 GB of SDRAM DDR3-1 066 MHz (4 DIMMs) - 1 HDD 1 TB 7200 RPM SATA 3 Gb/s.

  Problem: I don't want Windows 7 and I try to install XP Home Edition with Service Pack 2 - Full Version/CD ROM.  I put the disc in and the installation option is grayed out.  What should I do to prepare my system to accept the installation?  I have my backed up system.  If I erased my hard drive would that work?  Is it possible to install over Win 7 or have two operating systems installed? I've seen advise to set the BIOS but cannot figure out how to display the screen upward at the start.  I looked in the manual of HP and do not find the information.

  Any direction is most appreciated.

  Hello

  Windows XP is an operating system not supported and XP installation may void your warranty.

  If you want to continue using XP, I would make sure that create you HP recovery discs before you start anything.  Wipe the hard drive should allow you to install XP.  I don't know what are the options you have the disk to install XP but I get an advanced option and try a Dual Boot or install double if you want to run two operating systems.  To help you, do a search for "dual boot windows 7 and XP" or something similar and browse the results.
