Error Windows Vista registry; 'Software' is no longer available in the RegBack folder
For a long time, my computer upgraded to the point a file corrupted software in the registry and due to my lack of ability to install a new operating system (no copies were available and I didn't have the money to buy a) as well as my lack of interest in losing the information on this disk, I looked for other solutions. I came across a great technique where a copy of the software file is copied to the backup (RegBack) registry file, so start the computer with a fully functional copy of this file. It worked for ~ a year; I would use my system recovery disk to perform needed to start command lines upward. Now, I'm facing a problem. A copy of the software is more in my RegBack folder. Old copies of the registry (software.old, system.old, etc.) are so corrupt, and a file under the name of "software.sav", which I'm not sure of the object of not brought success.
Now I have access to a copy of Windows 7, but am facing a monumental problem. The "upgrade" feature will not work unless the computer is started successfully in the previous version of Windows. It is very important that I do not lose some data on this hard drive, so I'm curious to see some possible solutions.
1.) it would be possible for me to copy the file from another computer on an external hard drive or a disk software and copy on my computer?
(2.) it would be possible for me to a copy of Linux from an external hard drive or a disk startup and access to information on my first hard drive to back up important information?
This last solution would be preferable, because it seems as if it would be less hassle simply to recover important information and move, even if the first solution would enable the same result, just with more steps.
If there is another solution that will allow me to recover the data on my hard drive, please let me know. I'm open to experimental ideas.
Hello
You can back up your data using Linux on the disk.
What are other ways to do it:
Saving your files:
You can remove the hard drive and put it in a hard drive USB enclosure > plug it into another computer > and try to read and copy your data in this way.
Or, you can download Knoppix > make a bootdisk to > start your system with it (IF your material is all work) > and copy your data from the hard drive like that.
See you soon.

Error Windows Vista and software Capture NX2. Help!
I use Capture nx2 originally on my computer for a few months now. Every time ina while Windows gives me an error that reads "Nikon Capture NX2 has stopped working" chekcing for solutions, blah blah blah. Normally, when this happened I closed the program, go back and it would work very well. Since yesterday, I open the program, it tries, but immediately gives me the error "program stopped working." I contacted Nikon who told to install the latest update and I did and it didn't do anything else. Help, please! I'm a photographer and I need it to work YESTERDAY! Thanks in advance!
Hello amoliver7673,
It may be a compatibility problem with the Nikon software.
If you have an older application for Windows XP that does not work in Windows Vista, you can make it work properly by running the program in compatibility mode.
1. to start, find the application or the shortcut which is the cause of the problem, and then right-click on it and select Properties.
2. then, select compatibility in the menu tabs at the top of the properties page:
3. now check the box run this program in compatibility mode "dethrone" and select the operating system you want to emulate. For most applications, this will be Windows XP SP2. Once you are finished, click OK.
4. When you then run the application, it must run under compatibility using the OS mode you have selected. If it runs properly, try another selection of OS in step 3, and then try again.Run the installer in compatibility mode:
1 right click on the file icon installation.
2. click on properties > compatibility.
3. Select the compatibility mode for Windows XP.
4. click on OK.
5. run the installation program.After installation, run the program in Windows XP compatibility mode by doing the same thing with the installed program.
I hope this helps.
Sincerely,
Marilyn

* Original title: upgrade
I want to upgrade to a newer Windows operating system Windows Vista Home Pro 64-bit. What is the recommended procedure? I see that Windows 7 or 8, a free update to Windows 10 is offered. Should I buy 7 or 8 then you spend 10 or just buy 10?
Thank you

Hello
Depends on hardware configuration required on later operating systems, and also find out if the manufacturer of the laptop computer is supported and provides drivers for operating systems later as to whether it is possible or feasible to upgrade or not.
There is no free upgrade Vista to 7, 8.1, or 10.
Follow these steps before you buy Windows 7.
Microsoft sells more than 7; Try Amazon.com.
Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.
If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.
Run the "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

I bought a "Windows Vista SP1 Upgrade disc" Wal-Mart and on the accident. I thought it was a full version, but turned out to be upgraded. How can I install this drive to upgrade on my computer if I do not already have an existing operating system?
You need a disk FULL/license to do a clean install, not an upgrade license.
Take it back to Wal-Mart and see if you can exchange it.
