Gold sim flight & windows 7, nothing in the Compatibility Center

Pulling teeth... The game MS site says flight sim x Gold works with windows 7, but the box shows only windows XP and Vista.  The Compatibility Center is? the best with "varies". So here's the simple question... will Microsoft Flight Simulator X Gold edition works on a system running Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit?  Any help will be greatly appreciated!

In addition, you can always run it in compatibility mode for an earlier version of Windows (Vista, for example), and then it will work.

  • LR plugin load success on windows, but nothing on the view of export, Mac OK

    Hello world

    I have a problem with my double ISO Converter plugin for Lantern magic https://bitbucket.org/kichetof/lr_cr2hdr/downloads/cr2hdr.3.0-BETA3.2.zip and the link to the forum of ML http://magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=11056.0

    Everything works fine on Mac.

    Explanations:

    When you load the plugin where he was responsible for the first time, everything works for Windows, but if you want to change the location of the plugin, nothing happen on the export view. (bug confirmed on Windows 7 (EN, FR) (32, 64 bits) LR 5/6)

    Some screenshots to see the problem:

    Plugin Manager:

    plugin manager.JPG

    Plugin is loaded and activate without problem.

    View of export:

    export file without ml.JPG

    Magic Lantern appear only on "export to:" but nothing in preset

    This is what you have when you load the plugin in the same folder as the first time:

    export file with ml.JPG

    (don't forget ML instead of magic lantern, I tried something to find a way to solve this bug)

    In Preset, there is ML-> double ISO Converter (cr2hdr)

    Do you have any idea how to fix this bug? It's very problematic

    I hope you could help me

    Thank you!

    Problem solved!

    It is the hyphen on the folder plugin cr2hdr3 beta that prevents the loading of the predefined settings dir!

  • Windows 7 change automatically the compatibility on steam

    Hello

    I just had a strange error output of steam, in which Windows says it has detected problems of compatibility and changed automatically in response to this. There is no option to cancel the changes, and looking at the exe of steam, no compatibility setting have been changed.

    However, when I go to open steam now, it detects that it is in compatibility mode and does not open. Anyone has any idea how I would like to undo changes?

    I do not understand why Windows has changed the settings in the first place, as it has been working well since the RC is released.

  • How can I run first 6.0 (year 2000) on Windows 8? Change the compatibility settings/admin make no difference. No XP Mode in W8 or the other. How Wow64 is supposed to work?

    I struggle with this, I searched for hours and I can't find a solution on a forum or a thread. I read that the 64-bit Windows versions have Wow64 - but how does it work? And I read a little on VIrtual PC, but it's too complicated. Help, please!

    Even if you had Windows XP Mode, you would not be able to use Adobe Premiere 6.0 in it since graphical applications such as first would not be supported.

    The premier 6.0 is quite an old version. I sincerely recommend that you invest in a modern version of Adobe Premiere such as Adobe first CC or Adobe Premiere Elements.

    You can look into alternatives include Windows Live Movie Maker.

  • Windows could not start service Security Center, Windows 7

    I am using windows 7 ultimate in my laptop, but whenever I try to open the security service windows to open action center located on the menu to the Quick Launch bar, it generates an error message stating:

    "Could not start the windows Security Center service.
    No error number.

    You can try the steps below and check if the problem is resolved.

    Try to manually start the service from the Services Management Console.

    For the Services console type in the find field, then press ENTER. You will need to click continue if you are prompted to open the Services window.

    After the opening of Component Services.
    Click: Services (Local)
    At the bottom of the window there will be two tabs, click: Standard
    After that will appear a list of services, including Security Center

    In this window, you must locate the Security Center service do a right click it and go to Properties, select Automatic, and then click apply , then select Start.

    If your Security Center turns off automatically after a few seconds or minutes, proceed as shown in the following post:
    COMBOFIX WORKED FOR ME! in Windows 7
    My symptoms were the same as above. Only when affecting the automatic Security Center service, and the startup, it automatically set it to homes disabled after a few seconds or more.
    This solution worked for me,
    -activate the hidden administrator account by following the steps on this tutorial... http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/enable-the-hidden-administrator-account-on-windows-vista/
    -Once finished activating in the command prompt, to bookmark the websites for later use and log on to Windows.
    There is now an administrator option in the logon screen.
    -log on to the administrator account open a browser and open this page again.
    -Click on this link below and download to your desktop... http://www.combofix.org/downloadlink.php
    -disable your connection and internet anti-virus software.
    -Now run combofix.exe
    A window will appear and many scans will take place. It will take some time. Finally, the computer may restart. When this is the case, log back in the administrator account and Combofix will resume running for a little while. Do nothing until the log file appears automatically.
    -Restart your pc and you log in Administrator account.
    -now set the Security Center service back to automatic, then click on apply. Then, click on start and ok.
    -Restart your PC and you can now log in to your normal user account.
    Everything should work now... Well, it did for me.
    If you want to disable the account again, you can do so by following the steps to disable in the link above.
    After HAVING finished with "Combofix" you may have to restart your computer once more, and then go to "Security Center" again via "Component Services" and Activate and Start Security Center. This time, it will work for good.
    I hope this helps and good luck!

  • Windows 7 Compatibility Center video cards

    The Windows Compatibility Center contains 40 video cards are compatible. Is this all? I need an AGP8x card or I guess I could run just old XP easy to use and reliable. 7 doesn't impress me a lot.

    The ONLY way (even with the Compatibility Center) to make sure a video card is actually compatible and supported by its manufacturer is to check with the video card manufacturer themselves.

  • Windows want to format the iPod, iTunes wants to restore, nothing works...

    Hello

    I bought an iPod nano 7th generation,

    I had iTunes already installed on my pc (surface pro 4 Windows 10).

    If I loaded the iPod with a phone charger, then I plugged into my computer, and two things prompted, 2 first messages from Windows Explorer, saying that the iPod needs to be formatted, then iTunes says that the iPod is corrupted and must be restored.

    So I ignore windows messages and I restored the iPod to iTunes (you download the latest version of its software), but whenever the restoration is finished and iTunes is waiting for the iPod restart, it began in the early, saying it needs formatting and iTunes says the Windows device is damaged.

    I have tried everything, formatting of the iPod, uninstall the drivers, reinstall iTunes, delete the letter of the Disk Manager disk (although the iPod is shown in RAW format).

    Don't know what to do anymore.

    Anyone?

    Try to get someone running iTunes on Windows 7 to restore the device for you. There seems to be a problem with recent versions of Windows 10 reports falsely iPods as having a corrupted disk when they don't. This can prevent the restore process to complete successfully. You can also try a complete tear down and rebuild iTunes, in case there is a different reason for your question. See the second box in troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows Update for more details.

    Hi, Mohammad Ali G,.

    (1) since when are you facing this problem?

    (2) remember to make changes?

    (3) what is the complete error message you receive?

    (4) what is the number of brand and model of your computer?

    Step 1: Disconnect all external devices (printers, scanner, USB (universal serial bus) readers, etc...)  Except the keyboard and mouse and then start.

    See the article below


    Windows Vista or Windows 7 unbootable and the Startup Repair tool does not resolve the problem
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/934540

    Step 2: See the steps mentioned in the link below

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/picking-up-the-pieces-after-a-computer-crash

    For the recovery of the computer back to factory settings, you must contact the manufacturer of the computer.

    Note: Restoration of factor is a favorable condition of a computer as that set up by the manufacturer of the computer and is specific to the manufacturer. This process will put the computer to its original factory condition, data (and programs that were installed later) on the computer will be lost.

    You may need to check the documentation that came with the computer to Factory Restore (System Restore) or contact the computer manufacturer.

    Important: It is recommended to make a backup of your data before performing any Installation of Windows.

    Thanka

    Ken

    Hello Ken,

    The Windows 7 Compatibility Center din't provides much information about the compatibility factor of edition of Flight Simulator X gold with Win 7. If I was in your shoes, I would have tried to install the game in compatibility mode to Xp or Vista. I firmly believe that it should take care of your concern as well.

    More information on Compatibility Mode is here.
