Correction to the previous question regarding Windows XP PRO for Windows 8.1, & HOW TO UNINSTALL WIN XP PRO?

I think MS Store I buy Windows 8.0 first, then the upgrade (free) from here.

In fact, it would be a drive replacement (not a download was updated on my desk).  Responded.

* QUESTION UNANSWERED, MUST HOWEVER HOW DO I UNINSTALL WINDOWS XP PRO? (&).

* IT IS NOT IN MY CONTROL PANEL. WHAT IS A PROCEDURE IN SAFE MODE?

Any advice greatly appreciated. Best regards, Doug

8 must be installed before the 8.1 update. Unless you have a version of 8.1, it is the complete installation of the o/s.

You can not switch to Windows XP.

In all cases, you should go on the forums of Windows 8/8.1 and ask your questions there.

  • Replace the previous Question on Windows 7 jump lists

    Previous question incorrectly referred to as Windows 7 Jump Lists rather than the Start menu lists.  I tried to delete it, but could not... Please disregard.  It is corrected below:

    With the Windows 7 Start Menu, number of items in the list of the default Start Menu is set to 10.  There are currently 10 applications in this list.  When I opened an application 11, different from those in the list on the Start Menu, I expected to be added to the list with the oldest list entry being deleted (by example, most recent, most former fate).  This was not the case.  When I click an app (PPT 2007) from the desktop, regardless of how many times I opened it, it was not added to the list of the Start Menu.  Only after you open in the all programs list it has been added to this list.  In addition, no matter how many times I opened Windows Explorer, whether by the bar of tasks or in the list of all programs, it is not added to the list of the Start Menu.

    The Microsoft online help States the following on the list from the Start Menu:

    "You will notice that, over time, the lists of the programs in your Start menu change. This happens for two reasons. First of all, when you install new programs, they have added to the list of all programs. Second, the start menu detects the programs you use the most and places them in the left pane for quick access. »

    First of all, what is adding programs to the list of all programs has to do with the list of the Start Menu?  If I install a new application, is automatically added to the start menu?  Second, what are the programs will be added to the list of the Start Menu?  You have to open 'x' repeatedly to be added to the list?  Are there exceptions to what is added to the list and if so, what are those exceptions?

    If someone can explain the details of how the list of the Start Menu is supposed to behave, I would be very grateful.  At the moment it seems inconsistent.  All of the default settings in the Start Menu properties that affect the lists are active (for example; ("Store and display recently opened programs in the menu start" and "Store and display recently opened items in the start menu and taskbar" is selected both).

    Thanks much for any help.

    What you suggest is possible but it takes software and third-party quality loss.

    Instead, export a QuickTIme movie. If you have a choice of codecs, choose Apple Intermediate Codec. You can save it where you want it-maybe in the movies.

    Then import the movie into FCP as a clip.

  • Back to the previous version of Windows.

    When I install Windows Tech Preview, it will erase Windows 8 or keep it in the disk hard where I want to install Windows 8 of my hard drive.

    If you install Windows 8 a upgrade, you can use the restore feature.

    How to recover / restore your previous version of Windows by using the restore feature

    Points to remember:

    Given that Microsoft made available the first version of the preliminary version of Windows 10 in early October 2014, there was a misunderstanding that this is not a product you use to replace a facility for production of Windows such as Windows 8 or 7 or Vista. On the other hand, if you test it on one machine, the best recommendation is to create a partition or have a spare ready hard drive where you can install it. Windows 10 in its current state of the pre-release will expire, and at the same time, it's unfinished work. So if you need to evaluate it, the best way is by installing it next to your commercial installation of Windows.

    Benefits

    The benefits of testing 10 Windows on a physical partition or hard disk compared to a Virtual Machine include full access to the material, which includes memory, graphics and input/output of the local disk performance can take full advantage of all the features of the operating system that are not accessible in a virtual environment. The biggest advantage is, you do not lose your production facility in Windows and you can restart it at any time.

    Points to consider before:

    Backup your current Windows installation. Because you're going to make changes on your computer, you should always back up before doing so. It is strongly recommended! See the links to resources on the backup by clicking the link for each version of Windows you are using: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1

  • Question regarding setExtent and getPreferredWidth for the custom field

    I am trying to understand the difference between getPreferredWidth and setExtent, which relate to the width of a custom field.

    I create a field that may be greater than the width of the screen. The field is made up of cells (for example columns and lines or cells, such as a table). The cells contain text, shapes, lines, color, etc. When I display the field I only paint the visible columns on the screen and allow the user to use the trackball to accomplish the columns out of the screen.

    At present, getPreferredWidth returns the total width of the field without all the empty columns, is longer than the width of the screen. I use the same value in setExtent for width. GetPreferredWidth must return the size of the field that is painted on the screen - the total width less the width of the columns out of the screen? I have the same question about setExtent - width either in total, longer than the screen width or the width of the part of the field that is painted on the screen?

    If I use the width of what is painted on the screen or the other of these methods, then the width changes when the user scrolls through the field. As the user scrolls, I calculate the number of columns will agree to a width of the screen and paint these columns. Is it a problem to have the PreferredWidth and the setExtent change width? I read that setExtent is called only when the Manager sets this field, so that the changes will not be recognized.

    It seems to work in two ways in a few simple tests, but I was just curious as the value of width that is right.

    Thank you!

    Mark

    When a field has changed in a way that requires the update of the screen (for example, after scrolling offset changes), simply call invalidate() from this area. That will eventually lead to paint (Graphics) for the field. At this point, you return the update field. (If only part of a field - as a single cell - needs to be updated, there invalidate() versions that accept arguments where, for efficiency, you can limit the update for just this part.)

    If I understand your needs, you can achieve the effect desired in the paint method. You can use the current dimensions of the field, the cutting of the graphics area, and your internal roll compensates to decide what to paint and what to delete. Let your custom field leave white space where you decide of doesn't make is not part of a cell. There is no need to change the scope of the field.

    If you go about it by changing the dimensions of the field, and then you ask the system to play much more work he has to do. If the custom field is the only field on the screen, it won't make much difference in the behavior (although there may be performance). With more than one field, it can be weird effects. For example, suppose that your custom field is one of several fields in a HorizontalFieldManager and you change the field width. When the HorizontalFieldManager recalculates its own layout, it will change the horizontal position of the fields to the right. The effect on the user, I think, would be really confusing: as the custom field parade, parties to the right of the screen could bounce left and right as the changed width field. I can't imagine that's what you want.

    Here's another way to think about this: absent some bit of style, your custom field would prefer be exactly wide and high enough to show all without scrolling. So the width and height would be based on adding the appropriate cell widths and heights, regardless of what actually is on the display. (It's also a long time that you do not have something fanciful.) If the optimum height is a function of the width available - as with sheathed on the line of text - you would implement this logic in the layout method. You then have no use for autonomous preferred width and height).

  • What is the ldiag file in Windows 7? How can I stop Windows write files in this folder?

    Can someone tell me what is the ldiag file in Windows 7?

    Somehow, Windows creates files and writes to this file. It keeps then write files until the entire hard drive is full. In other words, there is no place to save a restore point and no place to open Outlook, etc.

    When this has happened in the past, I had to contact the Microsoft response service and a level 2 technician to erase files. They said, the problem has been "fixed", but he continues to be...

    Do you know what "program" in Windows write files to this folder? I think it's a kind of diagnostic file. I tried the search "help" and the community and have not found anything to answer.

    Well, I hope that he is an expert in the community who can advise me on this. Thank you in advance.

    Thank you for your kindness in answering this question. I worked with technician level 2 Microsoft Office of response on the issue.

    I see that the files are part of the Lenovo system. Somehow, the Lenovo system analysis - triggered by something unknown to me--and wrote a text of 25 to 30 Gigabyte file!  I've identified it as a program of Lenovo, the write file and the program triggered by some unknown parameter. Then, I took the step to stop this program, Lenovo to run and then remove the text files.

    The steps you suggested are 'typical' first response / suggestions that you could do in that first level. However, in this case that they had nothing to do with the real problem.

    I often do a disk cleanup. This program is not clean these text files of the diagnosis of Lenovo.

    I start the computer in safe mode to diagnose problems. Yet once, just for the record, being in safe mode has nothing to do with the question of the Lenovo running program.

    No, there is no error message other than a message about 'disk full '. I ran a small program to see the size of the folder and was able to quickly identify the issue of file ldiag containing two text files, each about 25 gigabytes.

    Once again, thank you for your suggestions, but they were just basic, 'typical' suggestions and really had nothing to do with this specific problem. However, you have correctly identified the ldiag as being a file of Lenovo. Once that technology Tier 2 response office and found out that we were able to "solve" the problem.

    I'll keep the links you sent for reference.

    Thank you for taking the time to answer.

  • I bought windows 8 pro discs, then my computer is dead, I can install it on the new computer of windows 8 and how do I do this?

    Also, what is the difference between the pro version and the Windows 8.1 update? I'm not a pro like you old guys, simple answers would be really appreciated, thanks.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft community!

    1. Yes, you can re - install Windows 8 on a different computer.  Before you re-install in another computer, please make sure that you remove Windows 8 to the computer that you have already installed software license terms Microsoft lets a copy must be installed on one computer only.
      To remove Windows 8 of the current computer, you must perform a clean installation of Windows 8. Install with previous operating system drive (Windows 7\ Vista\XP). This removes Windows 8 in the current computer and install the previous operating system.
      Note: You may lose all your data when you perform a new installation, so please back up all data before installing the previous operating system.
      Once you have removed Windows 8 from the current computer, download Windows 8 in the new computer and install. When installing, please provide the same license key that you used during your first installation of Windows 8. You can also find this key in the purchase confirmation email that you received.
    2. As your second question, Windows 8.1 will be a free update for users of Windows 8. Which means, you must have a version of Windows 8 in order to install Windows 8.1. Windows 8.1 brings updates for the Windows 8 Pro(or any other Windows 8 version). See the following links to learn more about Windows 8.1:

  • How to correctly record the ESXi 4.0 and vSphere Client for free?

    Hello everyone.

    Can someone help me with registration

    of free VMware ESXi 4.0? I am totally confused with the process I

    certainly do not understand.

    My goal is to install and use ESXi

    4.0 and manage via vSphere client with free licenses free of charge for

    more than 60 dayes. Is it possible?

    Installation of its products

    gone without problems, but failed to save. I found a few

    suggestion on other threads, but nothing helped. Give me a hand please,

    I will be grateful.

    I'll write what I did:

    1. I went to the http://www.vmware.com/products/esxi/ site.

    2. I read that I can get the free license for VMware ESXi 4 and VMware vSphere Client.

    3. Decided to download this software, registered and was redirected to
      the site where I could download iso 4 ESXi and vSphere Client .exe

    4. Installation and basic configuration of ESXi on the bare metal and vSphere Client Windows XP without problems.

    5. I am able to create virtual machines and use it - it's OK, but vSphere Client know that I have to the 60-day trial.

    6. Meanwhile I received the email with "Activate your VMware ESXi license".

    7. I have
      Click on the link in the e-mail and was redirected to the same
      the site, where I can download the software, but on the top of the web page I can
      find information and a 'ESXI licenses""this license key is valid.
      "for VMware ESXi 3.5 Update 2 and later versions. So I guess it's also valid
      for ESXI 4.0. I'm I right?

    8. I would like to record my ESXi 4 software installed and the vSphere Client. Of
      I chose the vSphere Client Menu: help - & gt; VMware on the web - & gt;
      Sign up for now. The site ask me "series/license number Activation".
      Code"so I typed the license key. Iassume that this license key should not be placed here, because the web site of replay that: "Code of Activation of series/license number has already been registered. So how do?

    As I wrote, I'm confused. How to correctly record the ESXi 4.0 and vSphere Client? What I did wrong and how to fix?

    To register the serial number in your ESX4i host

    Home-> inventory-> higher level (your ESXi host)

    Tab Configuration

    Left side - features licensed

    Edit-> Assign new key for this host-> Enter Key

    Paste your key

    Confirm all

    Your ESXi server is now fully licensed

    Note: you no longer have the basic features and all the enterprise features that came with a trial license are no longer valid
