• The upgrade of Windows 10 blocking does not work

  I am training remotely for my University and am unable to upgrade to windows 10 since it is not compatible with several programs that we use.  I followed all the instructions to remove the automatic updates, but he's back.

  The only suggestion I have not tried changing the registry.  I am very uncomfortable trying myself.  Is there a program that will do it for me?  It is honestly- or go buy a Mac later today.  :(  Honestly, with as frustrating because this is the case, I could just do that anyway!  In the meantime, are there any programs that I can just click to block this nightmare?  I currently have windows 7.

  If you're looking to block the upgrade of Windows 10, GWX Panel is available:

• The upgrade to Windows 7 Professional Windows and not Windows 8?

  I have Windows 7 on my computer. I bought an upgrade to Windows 7 Professional last year. When I try to update I get sent to Windows 8 upgrade. How can I get Windows 7 to Windows 7 Professional without buying an upgrade of Windows 8?

  Is the Professional Windows 7, upgrade or an Express upgrade?

  The first thing you need to do is to get your key to Windows 7 Professional upgrade Express:
   
  An e-mail containing your product key will be sent to the e-mail address associated with your Windows Live ID account or e-mail address you provided if you ignored the account configuration. Note: If you use an email tool or spam blocker spam filter, be sure that you can receive e-mail messages from microsoft.com.
   
  What happens if I lose my product key?
   
  If you lose your product key, you can return to

  www.Windows7.com/GetKey and sign in using the "Sign In" link in the upper right of the page. This will allow to recover your product key if you have established your account with your Windows Live ID. If you do not configure a Windows Live ID account initially there is no record of your online product key. Check your e-mail since it is the only trace of your product key.

  The next thing you need to do is to reinstall the base license that you upgraded, Windows 7 Starter Edition or Home Premium.
   
  If your computer is pre-installed with Windows 7:
   
  New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.
   
   
   
  -Samsung uses ESC on most of its systems
   
  -HP use F9 on most of its systems
   
  -Fujitsu uses F12 on most of its systems
   
  -Acer use F12 on most of its systems, but often you need to go into BIOS to allow

  -Dell uses F12
   
   
   
  In general, look at the screen during the POST for a tip for what is possible.
   
   
   
  If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling.

• FN keys do not work after the upgrade to Windows 10

  Why the FN keyboard does not work after upgrade to Windows 10?

  FN keys are controlled by utilities and special tools of Toshiba. Usually after the upgrade to Windows 10, the parts of the pre-installed Toshiba software must be upgraded to version compatible and support Windows 10...

  You have not provided information on the laptop model so I can't say with certainty if your unit is 10 Windows supported or not...

  Function keys do not work after the upgrade to Windows 10

  Anyone know when and if it will be available?

  I'm also waiting for Win10 of things and do not know with certainty how Toshiba will start with the support of Win10. I hope that will happen soon.

• Satellite U500 - 11G - cannot activate the upgrade to Windows 7

  Really sorry to this topic, but with the new Satellite U500 - 11G can not activate the upgrade to Windows 7. Keep told by entering the serial number that it was origonally installed with Vista, but no info on how to activate it.

  Any help here please?

  Hi mate

  The Toshiba pre-installed Vista OS has already been activated.

  AFAIK if you upgraded the operating system Vista to Win 7 using the Toshiba Windows 7 upgrade kit then a Win 7 must be already activated and does not need to be enabled separately

  See you soon

• Pavilion dv6: Intel Centrino Wireless - n 2230 will not activate after the upgrade to Windows 10

  Model A3E82AV number

  I've been avoiding Windows 10 because I knew something like this was going to happen, but I took the pludge.  Anyway, everything seemed to work but my wireless adapter.  After the upgrade, the rocker on the keyboard turns on and outside airplane mode, and I can't switch to map wireless in Windows settings.
  
  I can get wireless adapter to turn on, go into that in a minute, but if I shutdown or reboot, the problem returns.
  
  I had success in the driver update, or by manually installing the driver, I even read a tip to make the battery, hold the power button down while the battery is out and run it upwards.  I tried to reset the BIOs to default settings.  When the computer feels like it, the wireless adapter will start working after a reboot.  If I have the toggle switch, the light goes from orange to white, I can then activate wireless and connect to my SSID.  If I stop or restart, my wireless NETWORK card no longer works and we return to the toggle keyboard turning power on and off airplane mode.  Device Manager says it is working normally and the drivers are up to date.

  I read a post from microsoft that says VPN adapters could cause corruption while making the upgrade.  I'm a professional, so I got a handful of cards, but also virtual cards VMWare Workstation installed, so I tried to come back to Win 7, remove the adapters, are re-upgrade.  It does not solve the issue.  While I was back in Windows 7, everything worked most of the time, but there were some problems with the programs, etc. which would not work right.  When I upgraded to Windows 10, some of these problems persist, so I checked my backups to make sure they were up to date and did a new install of windows 10.  I am now running a new image with just firefox, associate of HP and the different drivers Intel, I tried to install, and I still can't get the card wireless to tour consistantly on / off power after a reboot.  I thought for sure the nuclear option could solve the problem now I can't even go back to Windows 7.  I did mention to try some recommended drivers Intel, I found in other posts... I also tried to uninstall the driver, and install in compatibility mode, but that has not worked, either.
  
  This one had me scratching my head.  I tried literally everything I can find on the internet in an attempt to solve the problem, and nothing will keep the work of consistantly wireless NETWORK card.  Any other ideas out there?
  
  Looking at the forums, appears not to have a lot of people in all areas of this issue with different brands of computers and network interface cards.  If anyone knows anything else to try, I would really appreciate it.

  FIXED!

  I think so.  I downloaded and installed the bios for Windows 8.  After that, I managed shutdown and booted my laptop 3 times and restarted once.  Every time you start after the installation of the firmware BIOs, the card automatically turned on and connected to my SSID NETWORK.  Since the upgrade to Windows 10 I saw not the laptop automatically start and connect the wireless NETWORK card and he did successfully 4 times now.
  
  The file that I downloaded from the HP Web site was update the BIOs for Windows 8 version F.2D rev A.  The file name is sp68425.  I will continue to monitor and make sure that it was indeed the fix, but all great so far.

  For people who can run on the same topic, here's a recap of what I did to solve my problem:

  Centrino 2230 installed 15.18.0.1 driver
  Update driver Bluetooth 10.0.10586.0

  Updated the BIOS to the version of Windows 8 F.2D Rev A
  
  If you decide to play with the BIOs firmware, just be aware that if things go well, you could cause more damage to your system.  I would only try this method if you are uncomfortable for the recovery of a faulty BIOS installation.

• Problem with a keyboard key of T440 after the upgrade to Windows 10

  Hello world

  I have a Brazilian keyboard layout (ABNT2) on my T440 and I am facing a problem after the upgrade to Windows 10. The new version of Windows recognizes this key:

  

  As long as the "CTRL on the right" (commom on other layouts).

  Everyone was faced with a similar problem or have any clues as to what might solve this problem?

  Thanks in advance,

  Felipe

  Solved.

  Do more research, I fount out is an old bug with Lenovo's Thinkpad laptops with this Brazilian keyboard.

  If you are facing the same problem, use this registry tweak and the problem is solved:

• Photosmart 7762: Photosmart 7762 small print page in A4 since the upgrade to Windows 10

  I have just updated to Windows 7 to 10.  When I go to print an A4 document now doing at a reduced size that I have an additional border of space to the left and down.  The page is set to A4 of the printer is set for A4 and I tried printing and printing actual size to fit, but it makes no difference.   I deleted and reinstalled the printer so that it would probably use the most recent driver, but even when it makes no difference.

  HELP PLEASE

  (PS. My old LaserJet 1200 always print the same document A4 correctly after the upgrade to Windows 10)

  Problem solved.

  First tried to download HP printer Installation Wizard, which is installed as a brother of generic but with HP Photosmart 7760 showing when you click above but it just printed pages of random characters.

  Then the printer found possedantes-advanced-new pilot and started to windows update and it evetually listed series printers so I clicked it and now it prints A4 OK again.

• HP Stream 13: Beware of the upgrade to Windows 10

  I have just told me that in Hp Support the HP 13 Stream is not recommended for the upgrade to Windows 10 due to the lack of space and memory for this new operating system.

  I thought it would be interesting as well as alarming to soemwhat.

  This occurred after I contacted them for help and a solution to a failed update of the ' Intel dynamic and thermal Framework Client Driver SP 72416.  As a result, I did a sfc and dism scan to check the status of the file system and the final result are reports of corrupted files and source files could not be found.

  I should add that at the moment windows 10 works very well on my stream and a recent update of Windows loaded and installed ok. I currently 11.5 GB of free space on the C drive.

  HP support recommend reinstalling windows 8.1 provided to ensure a workbook entirely for the present and the future, because they anticipate the future updates and developments with Windows 10 is likely to produce more problems with the stream.

  Now this threw me after all the recommendations pushes and apparent and challenges for the upgrade of this small notebook with 10 Windows. I'll hold fire for now with other changes, while I go over what to do next.

  Someone at - it something to add?

  Delete all partitions is mentioned in the link that I sent, all partitions are displayed and you can highlight each and remove them:
