• I can't move my laptop Windows 7 Home Premium to Professional by using Windows Anytime Upgrade

  I have been unable to upgrade my laptop Windows 7 Edition Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional by using Windows Anytime Upgrade. I have a genuine Windows 7 Professional product key, but I'm not sure whether it is an OEM version or retail. The product key works for the x 86 and x 64 editions? I do the upgrade using the disc?

  Yes, this works for 32 and 64-bit architectures as long as they are the same edition.

• How can I remove Windows anytime upgrade from Win 7

  My windows 7 Home premium on my laptop has windows anytime upgrade and I want to get off the computer completely. I don't want to simply disable it or hide it, I want it on the hard drive. I found instructions online for windows vista, but I don't think it will work on windows 7, or will it? I have a HP laptop.

  This is the link I foumd to remove a vista on a Lenovo system:

  http://www-307.IBM.com/PC/support/site.WSS/document.do?sitestyle=Lenovo&lndocid=SF07-d0

  On the opening menu I click with the right button on the shortcut and open the location of the file and found 3 files with updated at any time under the name and tried to remove them manually, but got an error message that I don't have the rights to do so. The solution was to try again or cancel and try again once does not work. Yet, I'm not sure that just delete these 3 files might get rid of him anyway.

  Is there a way to do this?

  Thank you

  Please understand that shortcut link Windows Anytime Upgrade using all of the system resources. Its simply a mechanism of the operating system used to unlock the features of a higher edition. Its as you say windows to grow hair, it grows as long as provide you the key, is not as the "grown up" hair was there all along to take disk space or use of resources.

  If you look at an installation of Windows 7 Home Premium, its usually about 6 GBs, when you use the upgrade to upgrade to a higher edition like ultimate, Express size increases to 10 GB, which means basically, he never used any extra space at the beginning.

• If you are using windows 7 in xp mode my display settings are low and I can't adjust the parameters of why and how can I fix

  why I can't change my screen with windows 7 in xp mode and how could solve the problem

  Hi tmjmech,

  Thank you for visiting Microsoft Answers.

  Settings and change integration features

  When you run XP Mode, it is possible to change the material and data that are automatically integrated into the virtual pc. To change these settings when in Office XP Mode, click the Tools menu and select settings. You will now be in the settings of the virtual machine screen and click on the category of integration features . From there, you can specify what material and features that you want to embed or share with your desktop computer XP Mode.

  These features are:

  ·         Audio - this must be disabled so that you have the best performance. It should be noted that even with this unchecked, all its XP desktop mode will still play through the sound card of your host.

  ·         Clipboard - if this is enabled, then you will be able to copy and paste between XP Mode and your normal desktop.

  ·         Printer - Sharing host your printer with XP Mode.

  ·         Smart cards - XP Mode allows access to the host chip cards.

  ·         Disk - XP mode to access the host players, which include hard disks, CD/DVD players and removable media.

  All changes made to the above settings will be persistent every time that you start the XP Mode. However, if you disable the integration of a particular session, you can click on the Tools menu and then select disable integration features. This will make it so that you do not have access to one of the resources of the host. To enable access to these resources, simply click on the option to enable integration features in the Tools menu.

  Change the XP Mode Virtual Machine settings

  If you find that XP Mode does not work as fast as you want to, or you want to add more features, you must change some settings in your settings in Virtual PC for XP Mode. To change these settings, you must first stop XP Mode so that it is not in a State of hibernation. To do this, click on the menu on Ctrl + Alt + Delete , and then click close on the screen that appears.

  When XP Mode stopped, click the Start Menu, select all programs, Windows Virtual PC, scroll down and then click on Windows Virtual PC icon. You should now see a list of your Virtual PC, including Windows XP Mode. Right click on Windows XP Mode, and select settings. Now that Windows XP Mode is stopped, you can change the settings of your virtual machine. The parameters that you may consider to change to increase the performance and reliability are:
  
  1 memory -if you find that your applications are running slowly, then you can raise it so that your applications have access to more memory system.
  
  2 hard drives -you are able to add more 2 hard disks to your Windows XP Mode. So if you need to add another disk to your Windows XP Mode, you can do here. This will allow you to create a second disk on another physical drive of your computer to improve performance.
  
  3. cancel the disks - disks of cancellations allow you to create a base of your installation of Windows XP Mode image and then save all changes in a disc of cancellations. So if you need start from your base image, you just go back to settings and ignore the changes in your drive of cancellations. The next time that you start Windows XP Mode, you will be back to the basic configuration with any changes you have made to scrap. I suggest that everyoneturn this option on because it only increases the safety of your installation of Windows XP Mode.

  When you have completed your changes, just click the OK button to save the changes.

  When you then start Windows XP Mode, these settings will now be implemented.
