Home Premium and roaming profiles with WHS

I want to my Home Premium installation to save my profile on and use my profile to my Windows Home Server.  When I go into account management to set my account so that the options are grayed out.
Issues related to the:
1. is the ability to configure roaming profiles available in home edition Premium?
2. If they are, what I am doing wrong?
3. If roaming profiles are not available, they should be for people with WHS.  Home Premium... Home Server... See the link?

Hello ChiefTom,

I'm sorry for the delay in answering your question.

You are right. I read the wrong question and thought you want to store your roaming profile on the Windows Home Server. I apologize for the misinterpretation.

However, to answer your question. On a stand-alone computer, be it a Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7, you can have a local profile.
You must have a network server. She is also grayed out on my local computer, this option is not available.

A profile stored locally is one that is only accessible from the local computer. A roaming profile is stored on a network server and can be accessed from any computer to which a user connects.

Here's a thread on the Windows Home Server forum dealing with roaming profiles. Roaming profiles are not available in the Windows Home Server. I believe that the development team focuses on this feature. They give a kludgey solution that can help you.

Please let me know if that answers your question. If this isn't the case, I'll be happy to help others.

  • The disk (with no key) installed Vista Home Premium, and the license key OEM is for... Home Basic!

    I recently did a clean install with the disc that came with my Dell XPS6400 (bought in the auction) local computer, which had only "Vista 32bits" written on it and no product key.  I thought I could use the key on the sticker on the underside of the computer OEM license, even if the 2 characters in the 3rd section were partially missing - they had to be one of the other four.  When OEM license was initially considered valid, I realized that I had not yet downloaded a service pack, but after that, he was still to come as being invalid!  Then, I found that the version of Vista that was on the disc was "Home Premium" and the OEM for "Home Basic" license key  Do I have to reinstall the whole system, drivers, etc., in order to establish the upgrade?  (Please say "NO", there is an easier way to do this!    Here's the MGADiag. -I hope it helps.  :-}

    The product key on the bottom will work for what he says he is, Windows Home Basic Edition.

    Reinstall the correct Systyem, Windows Home Edition basic operation to use this product key.

    And Microsoft sells more than Vista.

    To reinstall Vista Home Basic read this information.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought, not that one 32-bit, vista, your computer must be on the hard drive to reinstall recovery Partition Vista to how you bought your computer, which may or may not work after the installation of the wrong edition.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/950929/en-us

    Please note that the family pack is an upgrade.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

    So if I understand correctly, I charge Home premium, then simply use the upgrade key and it will unlock win Pro, or I have to download pro then install it on Home Premium and use the key?

    YES! As Andre also noted. You must activate Home Premium with his first touch, then simply use the key to upgrade Express to go Pro. Pro is already part of Home Premium and the key to upgrade Express just unlocks.

  • A problem with the Redirection of folders and roaming profiles - Adobe Flash file

    This thread is in relation to a thread started for the Google Chrome browser.  Admins also suggested I have create a post here.  The link to the bug can be found here: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=97512

    This is the first post on the forums of Chrome:

    Here students use Windows 7 with redirection folders and roaming profiles.

    When in Chrome (any version) and they try to attach a file to an e-mail or upload a file to a site, a 'Find a file' window appears.  When they try to locate the file on their desktop or document file, Chrome hangs for a minute then prompt a user to enter their credentials. Even with the correct credentials prompt says access denied.

    If a local user without a roaming profile or the folder redirection tries the same thing that everything works as should.

    This problem does not occur in Internet Explorer (all versions) or Firefox (all versions)

    The "Search a file" window that appears resembles that of Windows XP, not the other from Vista or Windows 7.

    I also believe that I have posted here before on this topic, but can't seem to find the problem.

    Basically, right now I tell students not to use Chrome to download or attach data.

    I also confirmed AppData folder redirection to be a default/limitation in Flash Player 11 plugin... but only for Google Chrome built-in version of Flash Player 11 (usually located in the Chrome installation folder).  The version of Adobe (usually located in the Adobe installation folder) do not have this problem for me.

    Fortunately, Chrome allows you to install the version of Adobe if you want. I have disabled the plugin provided with Google Chrome and Google Chrome Frame, and my users were able again to use my Flash application:

    1. Google Chrome: type chrome://plugins/ in the URL
      Google Chrome Frame for IE: enter gcf: topic: plugins in the URL
    2. Click "Détails" to expand the list of plugin
    3. Scroll down to Flash
    4. If you have only one version and it is located somewhere in a folder of Chrome, then disable it, close your browser, reopen it, visit http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer and install the version of Adobe.
    5. If you have several versions, disable the version in the Chrome folder and try to use your Flash application again.

    It worked for me; your mileage may vary...

    If the operating system is running - use Belarc Advisor to retrieve the key. www.Belarc.com

    If the OS is always installed, but inaccessible, you can still be able to recover, depending on what is causing the problem - come back with details.

    If you have reformatted, about maybe possible get the key - but unlikely.

    Hello

    Updates must be installed in a certain order and no Service Pack must be installed unless and until it is offered through Windows Update.

    However, try these options:

    Step 1: You can not reuse what already automatically downloaded and installed. You can however save updates and install them manually if you wish.

    Step 2: You can create a system image on the computer. A system image is an exact copy of a disc. By default, a system image includes the drives required for Windows to run. In addition, it includes Windows and your system settings, programs and files. You can use a system image to restore the contents of your computer if your hard drive or computer ever stops working.
