  You do not have to be equipped with Windows 7 to install Microsoft Office

• How can I go back to Windows XP to 7?

  I recently got a new computer from a friend. It worked great (I use it for games), all the games were good, it was quick and everything. It was a Window XP, but we decided to update to Windows 7 and the graphics drivers is crashed or something. They were not lying for Windows 7, and I need to go back to windows XP. I have a Windows XP installation disc, but it is lying to new computers with no operating system on it yet. Is there a way to get rid of Windows 7 and then install XP? Or y at - it an easier way to simply install XP and it gets rid of Windows 7 by itself. Help, please!

• How can I go back to Windows 7?

  Ok. So I hurried and bought Windows 8. For me, nothing works anymore. I have no sound, and it's usually a pain. I can't print or scan with my new Canon printer. I have a Toshiba Satellite 750D, AMD A8.  I can't find a driver or any assistance to get the things that don't work - working again. I'm on it. I have a disc, so I intend to give it a few months and try again later.

  At present - please help! -I want to know how I can roll to Windows 7 have been all works. I just installed windows 8 a couple of weeks.

  I think it would be possible to restore my windows disc 8, I just need to know how.

  Thank you

  Yes, if you go to the store and buy Windows 7, you can put the CD in your computer and install it.

  But don't forget to ask the company who built your laptop first - hardware may not work with Windows 7 in all.

  If you could tell us more about what is difficult, we can try to help too.  Remember that Windows 8 still has all of the Windows 7 Desktop inside.  Nothing has changed, so you can go to the desktop and then use your computer normally without change.

  My computer have Windows reloaded and now I can't access my e-mail stored previously in Windows Mail. How can I get back them?

  You can try to search for *.eml, but if the disk has been formatted first, they will not be there.  The files are also hidden, so make sure that you enable the display of hidden files and folders under control panel | Folder options | View.  You can also check with those who 'reloaded' of Windows to see if they have backed up your data first.

  See www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm for information on the message to save the data.

• The main module controls develop disappeared from the window to develop.  How can I get back them?

  The main module controls develop disappeared from the window to develop.  How can I get back them?  I work with Lightroom 5.3.  The missing controls are the sliders for exposure, clarity, contrast, etc.  I must have inadvertently clicked on something that made them disappear, but nothing I tried back them.  I've never had this experience over the years that I've been using Lightroom (since version 1.1).

  Right-click on any other element curve tone e.g., and tick on 'Basic' if that is what you are missing.
