After using my Adobe Reader to XI (and then again to X), the normal window disappeared. Instead, I get a window that cannot be moved and size, covers most of the screen of the monitor, and has very few controls. So, work with several files at the same time is impossible, and I have to stop smoking using Adobe Reader. Is there somehow return to the "classic"?
Thank you, 'Dremmiz '.

After Windows 7, computer portable 64-bit Windows Live Mail update to version 2010 in fall 2010, some attachments fail to my computer. I can see them at the opening of mail on the work of the Windows XP computer, use comcast web mail, so I don't know the attachments exist. When I get home and open it with Windows Live Mail, the message through (comcast), and the attachment is missing. Can I go back to an older version of Windows Live Mail because I have attachments on the same computer. Second problem: in letters, I can't sort messages sent by COLUMN. They always sort by DATE, even if I want to sort by TO. This isn't a problem in the IN box.

Is it possible to change the format of Windows 8 back to the old style like Windows 7 or XP? This Windows 8 is the worst thing that ive had to face since owning a computer. When you try to browse, it takes you to some completely different screen that you don't want to go because the parameters are so sensitive. The old style was not broken. There is no reason or need to repair or change it!

A change is not always a "fix." Sometimes, it's just a change.
Pick one that allows you to boot to the desktop with a Start Menu/button as you're used to. -

How to recover the old window "downloads"?
I liked the old window with 'Download' more and I want to get it back.
Sorry, but this dialog box has been removed. Could someone create an add-on to simulate it, but I haven't heard one yet. In the meantime, if you press Ctrl + j or click Show all downloads, you can see the list in the Download Library dialog box.

removal of the old windows updates
on my window vista home basic on disk-D computer were my new and find the old windows updates, I only 21.8 gigabits of 69.5 gigabites
remaining. whenever I get windows updates and install them I have less memory remaining on this drive. my windows updates go all the way back to 2008
When I bought the computer. Every month I do a backup on dvd. I don't store objects like photo, games or other long-term files.
My question is it possible or safe to delete the old windows backup? I do a daily cleaning of windows.
Is there anyone who can help me with this problem so I don't run out of space on the disc-D?Hello
You do not remove the "old" Windows updates.
If you do, you lose the performance and the improvements in security that they give and you put your computer at risk of breaking or be infected by malware...
See you soon.

How can I remove the old Windows folder to a different drive?
Original title: Old files Windows, Program Files, etc.
I tried to use before Disk Cleanup and it worked, and I haven't run a complete installation.
I'm having a problem now, this time, and I did a full install. Disk Cleanup doesn't show any options to remove an old Windows as it did before.
How can I remove the old Windows folder to a different drive? I also try to remove the Program Files folder, as well as with an implementation since.
It is showing an error message "I need to be in the Administrators group ~", and that TrustedInstaller is owner of the present.
I have a question that "TrustedInstaller" has full authority on the file system, and 'Administrators' has limited access.
I noticed that there are other three to make a total of four names of users who have all or nearly full access to the file system.
Can it be fixed... it's pretty annoying to see this continue..., strictly through Windows Update.
I look forward to your reply.

When I make a change to my details, it won't stay on my phone. It always goes back to the old information. I have a lot of contacts and need to change the numbers. Help, please!
If your device behaves erratically these steps usually. They assume that all the content you want on the device in your lending library for the restoration. If not see recover your iTunes from your iPod or an iOS device first. I would also recommend you copy everything off of the camera, if you have not already.

- Restoration as a new device.
- Restore the backup that you made earlier.
