Hi darkwood.

You use a third-party online backup service?

You can use Windows Live SkyDrive to backup online, for more information on how to back up, see the link below

    The user files will be saved only for the user account that you have connected. If you want the backup to other users files, you will need to connect from other user accounts and make a backup.

  • How can I find a missing file

    How can I find a missing file for microsoft office 2010 which has been installed on the pc when I bought it. the file is: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\OEMOffice14\0Starter\en-US\WelcomeDocument.dotx

    Hi starr456,

    This is something tricky, simply because the Starter is not available anywhere to download (it's the OPK only), and it is not available to resettle them in the HP Recovery Manager. After researching this for awhile, it seems to me that your only option to get Starter upward and the execution is to perform a recovery of the HP System. This restores all of the original software, including programs that are not available to resettle them in the Recovery Manager. He is also the 'nuclear option' and will completely erase everything on your computer. You will need to back up all personal files that you do not want to lose.

    If you're desperate for Office Starter, you can use this recovery method. But if you're open to exploring other alternatives, you might want to try a freeware productivity suite (like OpenOffice, for example).

    Here is a link to the instructions for performing a HP system recovery for Windows 7. If you have a different version of Windows, let me know and I'll post a different link.

  • How can I recover all my files that I lost in an accident? I had to use my system recovery disk and install drivers for my computer again. I lost all my files. Is there something I can do?

    Help!  How can I recover all my files that I lost?  I was answering an e-mail message when I heard a couple of clicks then my computer off.

    I thought that my computer was destroyed.  Nothing I tried would bring it to the top, so I decided to use the system recovery disc that

    came with my computer.  I've also downloaded all the drivers for the application.  My computer is back on, but I lost everything.

    It's like putting into service with a new computer.  I had a lot of important information in the files that I lost.  I've tried everything I know to do

    without success.  Is it still possible to recover these lost files?  Thank you very much for your help!

    Hello

    I'm sorry, but when you did the recovery of the system you have disabled your hard drive of everything, including your files.

    You now have a new computer.

    You can try this program (it's free) to see if he 'can' find and recover your files. no guarantee:

  • files and folders: How can I load all my files and folders to my new account of my external hard drive?

    Who can help, I just put a new account on my computer and deleted the old account. I backed up the old files on my external hard drive. I want to know is how can I load all my files and folders to my new account of my external hard drive? I thank you for your time and knowledge have a very nice evening, Shawn

    Because it's a new account (even if with the same name), the restore procedure is unable to put files and folders in the same place, they came (because this place technically no longer - if yes, then the process is done and the transfer is complete). It can create a set of separate files (maybe even under a new user name, if it has been stored in this way).  If so, all you need to do is copy the data as you would copy any other files and folders (not the main files of the user profile themselves but the data in them) on the new files in your user account and who will take care of the transfer. Here is more information about the restore procedure which may help you in the process.

    Here is an article on the restore procedure:http://www.vista4beginners.com/How-to-restore-files to make sure you do this right.  It's a selective restore of a full or selective backup (not a full restore from a full backup) - but since you did a full backup, it matches your process more closely than would a full restore.

    This is a GREAT article on the backup and restore processes in Vista http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2007.09.backup.aspx , but he won't go into detail about the restoration process - considering almost as easy, of course.  But it teaches you a lot about what is possible and how to do it.  It also focuses primarily on the full backup process, but he did mention the full backup and restore process as well.

    Here is an article on the advanced use of restoration (during normal restore does not work):http://www.mayankraichura.com/post/2009/08/06/Avdvanced-Restore-via-Windows-Vista-Backup-and-Restore-Center.aspx.

    I also found the following (but don't know if it of true or not):

    1. after the start of "backup and Restore Center."

    2. I chose "Advanced Restore"

    3. I was did not an administrator password... maybe because my account is an administrator account.

    4 choose "files from a backup made on a different computer.

    5. in the dialog box indicating "Select the location of the backup to restore", select "hard drive, CD or DVD...". »

    6. under the drop-down list box, select your drive/partition and continue

    7. If all the backups on your drive, it will show a list of them.

    8. in my case, he showed a backup, but in the backup location, it will show "backup location is not available."

    9. I was frustrated, but then I somehow just select this backup (Yes... even if he said that thebackup location is not available " ")

    10. and you press "next".

    11 guess what... no error!

    12. a window appeared asking me if I wanted to do a full restore, or I want to select specific folders or files.

    13. I selected the folders I wanted to restore and bingo... it their restored smoothly.

    14. so that the next time see a mistake, try to continue with him... ;)

    I don't know if this will help, but it does not provide much information about the process (when it works).

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
