Difficulty finding Windows Outlook and others. I have no back up my files when I upgraded to Windows 7 Pro fm XPPro.

Where I think my Windows programs or ideas made my accidental omission to back up my files cause destruction of these facilities?

Thanks, Chris

Check if there is a Windows.old folder to the root of the hard disk, you can try to recover your personal files from there.

You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

    When updates are installed on the computer it says system files, this process of service not Microsoft that are running in the background can conflict with updates and tour damage the system settings.

    This problem can also occur if system files are corrupt.

    Try the following in order to recover the desktop icons.

    Even though the desktop icons disappear, the programs are still installed on computer you can launch them.

    Method 1:

  • Outlook and other applications to launch at system startup

    Hello

    Can anyone share how I can have the MS Outlook and other applications pref. start immediately when I start my system every day?

    It would really help me if I can get Outlook to just start charging in all of my emails that I have POP in different accounts.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Kind regards

    Ms. Mktg

    Hello Ms. Mktg, would be pleased.

    The best way to have a program automatically start when you connect, is to put it in your startup folder in your Start menu.

    Just open your Start menu and drag any icon down in the startup folder:

  • I am running Windows XP and I would like to back up my files and cannot find a way to do it. I was everywhere in the help site. Also, I have DVD-R to back up, do I have to formatt?

    I really want to back up my files of music and my documents but cannot for the life of find me a way to do it?  I have a DVD-R in the Tower ready to copy, but cannot connect.  Can someone help me?

    All you need to do is to install a good DVD burning program. I like ImgBurn because it has the ability to not only burn files to CD or DVD, but also the ability to CREATE a CD that can be played in a CD player real or a movie that can play on a real DVD player. AND you also get the ability to create bootable rescue disks!

    You can download the Setup file of one of the seven mirrors:

  • DIFFICULTY ADOBE SEND notifications and other features

    I would like for us to choose which notifications we want to when we use the adobe shipping product. In the previous version (sendnow) allowing us to receive notifications when the file was actually sent and downloaded. In this version, we receive only when the file is downloaded which is terrible. In addition, it would be great to have a CC option in an e-mail also. Finally, I can't view my history of the files I sent, but instead I saw a history of files available but no record on what this file no is associated, etc... TERRIBLE. Please correct that these things in the future release.

    Hi Donegergroup,

    It's all very useful comments. To ensure that good people see it, I will pass your message on the forum Adobe send ideas .

    Maybe I'm not understand your last point, but if you look at the list of files sent to your account at https://cloud.acrobat.com, you can see what files were sent and to whom. And, if you click in the right column for a particular file, then click on view full activity, you can see when the file was presented in preview and downloaded and by whom.

    Best,

  • Browser blackBerry Smartphones and other programs have gone

    I made a backup with Desktop Manager, then I tried to upgrade the applications that I had installed on the device and I got a fatal error telling me that the process could not continue.

    After that time, some applications on my 9500 aren't here anymore (browser, Facebook) and even with some old backups do they not appear.

    What could I do? This phone gives me just problems, I can't wait to buy an iPhone.

    Love the threats, lol. Very cute.

    So look at the options > advanced > applications. Applications are?

    If so, you have on the device, keep to search all folders and make sure that they are not hidden.

    If not, try this (given that these two applications you mentioned require a services directory):

    1. options > advanced > host Routing Table > Menu > register.

    2 send your service from your carrier's BIS site books.
    http://www.BlackBerryFAQ.com/index.php/Where_can_I_log_into_my_BIS_account%3F

    3. with the BlackBerry device powered time, remove battery for a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to restart

    For your old backups, where they appear? You use Desktop Manager > Backup/Restore > advanced > on the left hand side choose file > open and position yourself where your backup IPD files.

    Good luck. If you really want to help in this forum, please continue to ask.

    Hello 42tank,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers Community!

    The history list is the only place that Web sites is stored unless you have installed a monitoring/parental control program. Once history has been removed, the information has disappeared. You can use Windows Live Family Safety on Windows XP SP2 and later versions to keep track of internet activity even if the history is cleared. Follow the link below for more information.

  • I have to back up my documents when changing RAM?

    Hello! I'm a new Member on this Forum of Acer. I'll try to find an answer first on how to install two new RAM DDR2 1 GB cards in my laptop Aspire 9410 before posting a new question.  I can see physically how do, but want to know if I need to save or delete my files photo/document first? I need to reload my software program?

    Thank you all!

    [subject line changed to reflect the new topic]

    Hi dcslms23

    No, you need not backup your documents because you add or remove RAM. However, regular backups must be made of all your data/files because computers tend to go wrong (usually without notice) and data can be lost. Sometimes, even human error can experience data loss!

    Then back up now anyway and do it on a regular basis - at least all the stuff on your laptop doesn't bother you lose!
