Downgrade from XP to XP Home Edition Professional using a recovery cd - Can I still use the license of Windows XP Professional key
I have a disabled friend who I am hand. It was given to a second-hand machine from Dell with genuine XP Professional is installed. The license product key is on the side of the machine. Unfortunately, the operating system has been damaged while the machine does not connect to the internet, so I can not download from Microsoft. I did a recovery CD for Windows XP Home Edition from my PC at home. I create a new partition on his PC and retrieve XP Home Edition to him. When this is done the processw ask the product key. My question is: the key on the side of the machine will work with XP Home Edition?
Thank you

My situation is that I have a laptop that is a Windows 7 machine. I have a need where I'm considering purchasing a CD of Windows Vista operating system. It comes to be able to use the Interface of Windows Vista? I have a technical support of experience under my belt and I remember that if you need to have a different operating system available that you can use this operating system without installing it on your system.
I really could use a version of Windows Vista now my educational purposes. My current computer has Windows 7 home running on it right now. Could you or someone give me Options to work with. I'll look forward to your response.
Thank you

Original title: copy files
I have Windows XP Home Edition and use Outlook Express for my e-mail. Is there a way to copy/send e-mail, favorite contacts and my photos on a Flash key?
Open the address book in the old identity and file | Export | Address book (wab) to any location on your HARD drive that is easy for you. The office is very well. Then drag that to the flash drive.
In IE: File | Import and export | Export to a file. Check Favorites | Next | Next | Navigate to a folder or the desktop and export. Drag the folder in the flash player.
For photos, just right-click on the folder and drag it to the USB and copy here.

I have Windows XP Home Edition SP3, 32-bit and IE8. Do I need to upgrade to Windows 7?
The upgrade to Windows 7 is a personal decision. Chances are that if you can do what you need to do on Windows XP then it is 'useless' to upgrade. If you plan the upgrade anyway, you should first check to see that your hardware is supported under Windows 7. To do this, Microsoft has provided a program of "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor" to run on your current computer.

How to use the license acquired from Win 7 cd to be used on my WinXP?
Windows XP License Activation
I have a copy of Windows XP on my PC where I tried registering online, he says that's not authentic. I bought a copy of Win7 with downgrade rights to Windows XP Pro. How to use the license acquired from Win 7 cd to be used on my WinXP? I could not afford a complete reinstallation because several drivers needed to work on my pc do not work with Win7.Thank you!Hello Emerson_1
Microsoft does not sell Windows 7 with a downgrade to Windows XP and a valid key. You will need to provide your own key. This option is only available with OEM Windows 7 Professional systems. If you wish to continue using XP you will need 2 keys as indicated by JW.Windows 7 offers XP mode and you can use it if you have chosen. -
I have the license of windows 8, can I upgrade my Windows 7 Home basic to Windows 7 Pro?
I bought a laptop with Windows 7 Home Basic installed on it.
and then I bought the upgrade for windows 8 and installed it.
However, I didn't like windows 8 so I used the recovery partition on my laptop to return to windows 7 Home basic.
But I read that I can downgrade windows 8 for windows 7 Pro.
I can do on my laptop?
I'm sorry, you have no great experiences with Windows 8 on your laptop, I promise you it will go better if give you it more time! There are many new features in windows 8, it is faster and more organized!
However, if you have not the capacity as mentioned downgrade from Windows 8 for Windows 7. It's scheduled for compatibility reasons, to business and so windows 8 base will be not covered.

reuse the license of Windows XP from the old office to the new office
We have 4 old desktop computers with windows xp I want to reuse the license of Windows XP from the old office to the new office
I bought a HP desktop computer and dell preinstalled with Windows XP. The office has not worked for a few years, he has the processor are P4 and slow work.
I recently bought a desktop computer and wanted to know can I use the same license key to get Windows XP installed on my new desktop computer.
Note: I have lost my original installation of windows CD but have the office and Windows XP product code is available to me.
The old HP desktop and dell came with a license with the sticker on the side.
Any PC which came with a sticker with a key to activate product on it has a license that is related to this PC (and only this PC) for ever. It is not legal to install on a PC using the key videos from another PC.
If the PC you want to install XP on still has its sticker, then as much as you have a compatible installation XP CD, XP can be re-installed using the key on the sticker.
Only commercial versions of XP can be moved from one PC to another. With the commercial versions, the activation key came with the media, not on a label stuck on the PC.

I have a Tablet PC originally shipped with Vista installed. I've upgraded to Windows 7 disk 3 license and have since upgraded to Windows 8 with promo code I got when purchasing a new office.
Can I reuse the license to move an other PC from Vista to Windows 7, since the upgrade to Windows 8 would have been valid for a Vista upgrade?Yes, you can transfer the license of Windows 7 on another computer. Why, because the basic license is Windows Vista.

I have Lightroom and Photoshop CC on an imac and windows laptop PC. I've now bought another mac and want to use the laptop to windows. I need to remove the applications from the laptop first, then download new mac?
Hello
Lol you should not remove it. You can turn it off with the signing of the application Adobe CC.
Reference: connect and disconnect activate Cloud Creative applications
And then you can install it on your other machine.
