Change the screens

I am trying to download files from one screen to another, and to create the new screen.  How can I do this?  This is done to allow me to run exe files which are not available due to corruption or a condition incompatible with Adobe Acrobat Professional.

Thank you.

I think what you are asking is how to create a new user account and copy files to it from the old user account. If the original user account has been corrupted, which is what it looks like, my preference is not to copy all the parameters of the account user corrupted, but only to copy the data. However, I will give you the instructions for the first anyway.

Create a new user profile in Windows XP Home Edition

1 log on as an administrator or as a user with administrator credentials.
2. click on start and then click Control Panel.
3. click on user accounts.
4. under Pick a task, click on create a new account.
5. type a name for the user information and then click Next.
6. click on a type of account and then click on create an account.

Copy files to the new user profile

1 log on as a user other than the user whose you copy files to or from the profile.
2. in Windows Explorer, click on tools, Folder Options, click the view tab, click Show files and folders, clear the box to tick Hide protected operating system files and then click OK.
3. Locate the C:\Documents and Settings\Old_Username folder, where C is the drive on which Windows XP is installed, and where ancien_nom_utilisateur is the name of the profile to copy user data from.
4. press and hold down the CTRL key while you click each file and subfolder in this folder, except the following files:
* Ntuser.dat
* Ntuser.dat.log
* Ntuser.ini
5. on the Edit menu, click on copy.
6. Locate the C:\Documents and Settings\New_Username folder, where C is the drive on which Windows XP is installed, and New_Username is the name of the user
Profile that you created in the section "create a new user profile".
7. on the Edit menu, click on paste.
8. close the session and log in as a new user.

Note: You must import your e-mail messages and addresses to the new user profile before you delete the old profile.

  • Satellite A200 - 14 d: how many times can I change the screen resolution

    I would like to ask if often resolution change may damage the screen of my Satellite A200 - 14 d?

    Because now I'm programming in Assembly in resolution 640 x 480, and whenever I run a program, the screen should change its 1280 x 800 to 640 x 480 resolution, and it takes 1-2 seconds: it is empty, the backlight turns off, then the new resolution appears. I would like to ask if it permanently (often) could damage my LCD?

    Thank you.

    Don't worry man, it will not damage the screen ;)
    You can change the screen resolution often unhesitatingly ;)

    Change the screen resolution

    Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

    See you soon.

  • When I open Roxio it changes the screen resolution of 256 colors at a very low resolution b and the program will not work.

    My Roxio VHS TO DVD movie editing program has worked on my laptop Toshiba Windows 7 system before I reformatted.  Now when I open Roxio it changes the screen resolution of 256 colors at a very low resolution b and the program will not work.  When I close the program Roxio the resolution of the screen reverts back to 256 colors.  Control of program compatibility tells that it's incompatible, but the program worked on my system before I reformatted.

    Hello

    I googled a little and found this:
    http://www.withinWindows.com/2009/03/15/Windows-7-to-officially-support-logon-UI-background-customization/

    The procedure is a little but delicate.
    You must change the registry.

    -Beginning of registry (Regedit.exe)
    -go to
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-Software-Microsoft-Windows-CurrentVersion------authentication------LogonUI------background

    -Create a new DWORD value named OEMBackground
    -Double-click OEMBackground and set its value data to 1
    -Access register

    This allows you to include the screen background image (jpg)

    In C:\Windows\System32\oobe\info\backgrounds, you could include the jpg file.
    The file should be named backgroundDefault.jpg + +.

    Note: info and background folders don't exist by default. You must manually create these records. In addition, the images must be less than 256 KB!
