Existing software on the computer before the change of Windows 10

Where is the security, Norton, Norton Utilities, Microsoft Office software, software print, my income tax software programs, etc.  Should I reinstall all these objects?  What about the data saved on the years of returns on these programs?

Hi Frankietwodogs :)

The article below, if you upgrade directly from Windows 7 to Windows 10, most of your (compatible) programs, Windows settings and personal files will be preserved, which means that you have nothing to fear.

http://www.intowindows.com/you-can-upgrade-to-Windows-10-preview-without-losing-installed-programs/

However, just in case, I make a backup of these files and folders primarily (in local and itinerant) program before moving on to Windows 10 when just in time to make it.

  • What I forbid my computer before you upgrade to Windows 10 and the format remains the same?

    I don't want to do the free update for Windows 10 and I don't want to know that I should have cancelled the computer before doing so.  Then iTunes sees this as a new computer and I have to reauthorize the 10 version of windows.

    Withdraw the authorization before upgrade you. He can do no wrong. The library itself should be preserved through the upgrade but see your iTunes for Windows with SyncToy library backup to get advice on the backup of your library and other data. You should back up regularly and particularly before any major change to the system.

    I've been using Photoshop CS5 in Windows 7, and now I'm going to do a new install of the Windows 10 operating system on my computer.

    Do I have to disable Photoshop before you install the new Windows so I don't lose use of the license? Or it will recognize my computer, even if the operating system has changed?

  • Re-install temporarily deleted software during the upgrade to Windows 7

    After I installed Windows 7, I turned off the computer during the process of reloading of some software that he had temporarily removed.  Quesston: How can I re - load this software?

    Rickkai,
    If you have a software that needs to be charged, you will need to use the original media to install it with.  If it's pre-installed software and you had selected a custom installation, you will need to reinstall the software.  If you do not have the media, you can check with the OEM, because they can have a place to download it, or can be in a position to send a disc.

  • Can I transfer files from the old computer running XP to new computer before or after you move the new Vista computer to Windows 7?

    I have a computer running windows vista that I'm planning on upgrading to Windows 7. I will be transferring files and settings from my old computer running windows XP SP3.  Can I make the transfer to the new computer before upgrade Vista to Windows 7 or should I first, up grade for Win 7, and then do the transfer?  I also asked a previous question about the email, I use Outlook Express on the XP machine.  What happens to the emails, settings, and contacts once I use Windows Vista and Win 7 easy transfer to the have Outlook Express? The new computer has Outlook 2003 is installed, all the settings will automatically go to this program?

    Make the transfer later.  Everything you do is do more work for the upgrade.  It takes hours as it is.  Please use the forums of office for questions by email.  Click Office link in the banner at the top of the forum page.

  • the upgrade of windows 8, Windows 10. Is that all I have to do. Drivers?

    I upgraded from windows 8 for windows 10.  I had CC Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop on the computer before I upgraded to windows 10.  I need to download drivers for windows 10 now?  Lightroom has been timing much. It does not stop it just work has these long breaks every few minutes.  I also noticed something with Photoshop.  I'm just getting started with Photoshop.  Just installed my intuos Wacom first pro and I noticed that I have no options of pressure control feather in my bursh settings.  I was wondering if anyone has had these problems and or solutions.

    Thank you very much for your help,

    Thanks again for your help.  I was able to understand.  After the menu bursh is open I needed to click on the example, 'dynamic form' and not just check the box beside him.  It always ends up being the simplest thing.

  • How to have hierarchical folders in the tree of Windows 7?

    I hate the changes to Windows Explorer in Windows 7!  After a long period of frustration, I managed to make its appearance similar to what it used to be in the classic window and Windows XP: folders organized in a hierarquical way, slipped into a decision tree. Each file break down in its subfolders, at all times, so that we can get a glimpse of our impressive of the entire library.

    Boom! Is Windows 7. Whenever I click on a file, it disappears to make room for its subfolders. The hiarquical structure has disappeared. WTF? Where do you think we are? If we are creative dudes we would use MAC! Microsoft is used in the environment for a reason, because it offered a logical and structured organization. If you try to become another "Apple" someone will come along who offer to the strutuctured system businesses need, and creative people will always prefer Apple.

    Wake up!

    Yes I know that we can customize our needs but that surrounds them lots of reading manuals and watching videos with Silverlight, which for some reason any does not run in my workplace and tech guys have failed to solve the problem. In fact not even the tech guys know how to use, and so just to repeat, nothing has changed, but when I ask a concrete question, to do research in order to answer. My whole annex work was dirupted because of this stupid Windows 7.

    If you want to add new features, you can do it without removing the 'old'. Do the new option and not the "old"!

  • Unable to connect to the network in Windows 7 using the Boot Camp via Fusion 2.0.4 partition

    I know that Windows 7 RC is not officially supported, but I was wondering if anyone had ideas regarding my current situation.  I'm running the RC 32 - bit of a Boot Camp partition, via merger on a unibody MacBook, and whenever I'm in Fusion Windows cannot connect to my network.  Previously, I had a vm file-based and it worked normally, and in Boot Camp, I can get online without problem.  I went to training Camp to see if the Aero effects would work (they did after I ran the test of Windows experience).  I tried mode Bridged and NAT and any Windows does not see my wireless network.

    At the time current Windows 7 in any version is not supported by Apple on the Boot Camp partition, nor is it supported in any way under Fusion.

    Take a look at the configuration of the Virtual Machine's .vmx file and make sure that the NIC is showing that "e1000" as in the following example.

    ethernet0.virtualDEV = "e1000"
    

    To get the location of the Machine configuration file virtual .vmx take a look at the Beginner's Guide has VMware Fusion or gather Information for VMware Fusion.

    Note: You should make the change while Windows is shutdown, not suspended and merger closed.

    You can use TextEdit to edit the .vmx of the target Virtual Machine configuration file and locate the file...

    How can I solve the problem and use the software again?

    If you use a perpetual Photoshop and formatted your disc version of starting without disabling your activation of Photoshop, you also Adobe supports help you activate Photoshop once you retrieve your serial number.  The startup disk formatting would destroy that credential of Activation Photoshop machine which is registered in the database of the Adobe activation server. Which reduces the activation numbers you have to use.  If you have Photoshop installed on a second computer that means that you have no free activation available as well, even with your key you can't activated the machine.

  • Error when you try to install Windows XP Service Pack 3: "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this.

    Windows XP SP3 problem

    Recently, I met a problem with my PC and was forced to use the system recovery. Now I'm back to factory settings and try to install Windows XP Service Pack 3 on my computer. Windows Update won't work for me, that whenever I try to update I get [error number: 0x8024400A]. I think it's because I use Service Pack 2, or that's what I concluded after researching the problem, anyway.

    This is not my real concern, however. Because I could not get the update automatically, I tried to download and install the "Windows XP Service Pack 3 Network Installation Package for IT professionals and developers" myself. The first time I did it, I restarted the PC after the installation and was met with "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this. "  I went into safe mode and went to a just system restore point before SP3 was installed, but now I don't know how to install it correctly without encountering this problem after reboot. I'm hardly the easy just stick with SP2 when there are potentially important available updates. How can I get Windows Service Pack 3 is installed on my PC?

    It's certainly interesting!

    If the cause of your problem is to have a HP PC with an AMD processor and an original image on your hard drive (and of course it sounds like this is the case), the solution should be to rename the file intelppm.sys and launch the sp37394.exe patch. Once done, the SP3 file that you downloaded from here:
    SHOULD work!
    I'm puzzled why there is no intelppm.sys file in your directory C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers.
    Since you recently returned to square one with your PC ("return to factory settings"), then you may as well run the patch from this page:
    and try the SP3 Setup file again.
    But, first, let's be absolutely sure that we are both using the same terminology. Please answer the following questions:
    1. have you safely backed up ALL your data?
    2. what method did you use to ride "back to factory settings? I think that your choices have been a destructive restore (full) and a (partial) non-destructive recovery. The first erases the disk and leave you with a pristine image and NOTHING ELSE (which means that all of your programs and data get deleted). The other (which does not always correctly) is supposed to leave programs and data intact.
