How can I make a backup in safe mode?

After HP installed a new motherboard in my computer it does not start in normal mode due to a conflict pilot somewhere they can't find.  But I can run it in safe mode.

HP has decided to send me a new (and better) computer rather than trying to resolve the conflict.  But my problem is - no backup program does work in safe mode!  The thing Windows Easy Transfer does not work.
I desperately need to get all of my Office 2010 settings and configurations moved to the new machine.  And ideally, I'd like to get all my programs and settings moved as well.  I have an external hard drive that has plenty of space for everything.
I would like to make a backup image of August that contains all programs and settings, I need.  But the old machine is running Windows 7 Professional and the new a Windows 7 Home Premium and I do not know if the backup/restore functions are the same.  Anyone know if I can use the backup/restore of Windows in Windows 7 Home Premium to restore settings and programs to a Windows 7 backup professional?  If so, it would be what I need.
If not, anyone know if there is a way to save these settings in safe mode and programs?
(I can't believe none of this works in safe mode.)  When you need to run in safe mode, you are obviously in a critical State and it seems that would be a time that many people would need to make a backup).
Thank you!

Ah no!  I did not try it.  This would have been an excellent suggestion.

That's what I hate about these forums... you get a useful answer, a week after you ask!  (not your fault, I know).

But I'm already in place and running on the machine again and the former is on its way via FedEx to HP.

    On another PC I want to save my favorites, but my browser Firefox does not work how can I make the backup, before I reinstall Firefox.
    Firefox cannot renew its tabs and now won't run and let me do a backup

    This may be considered to be solve my problem.
    I decided to uninstall the rogue program Firefox download and reinstall the same version (No. 8). I used Windows XP Add Remove programs who asked if I wanted to save the settings of Firefox until I uninstalled Firefox. I said yes and operated with the uninstall. I couldn't find a Firefox 8 so I went for the 12 version and installed on the laptop. This version 12 now works with all the passwords one favorite of the uninstalled 8.
    Thank you for all your help and advice.

  • How can I make a backup of my ipad?

    How can I save my Ipad? Just bought more storage and backup ipad attempted for the first time. backup begins, works for hours and then stops before completion. Restarts and the same thing again and again. It is said that he needs 2 days. Is such a long timr for a normal backup? And what I have to give up the ipad during this time? The backup stops because I opened the ipad?

    What is the amount of storage that you used on your iPad and you purchased enough storage iCloud for storing all the data?

    Also, initially, iCloud backup can give you a ridiculous amount of time, but as the data gets uploaded, the time should be reduced.

    It may take a while for the download of backup. My backup of almost 50 GBs took between 6 and 7 hours to download.

    You need to plug your iPad into wall power and let it operational (disable automatic locking and just turn the screen brightness way down and leave the iDevice completely active during the backup process.)

    That's what I do.

    Safe mode is not likely to help, and system restore.

    Your user profile is probably damaged and that Windows has created a new profile for you.  If you are looking into 'My Documents' or 'My images', your old files won't be there - they are in the old profile.  Do a search for your files.  If you find them, you can copy the entire profile.  See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811151

    Or you can simply copy the desired specific files/folders.  You may need to 'own' the files to gain access to their--> http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308421

    You will probably need to go to 3rd party programs.  Two products that are frequently mentioned in these groups are Norton Ghost and Acronis True Image.

  • How can I check my backup burned restore disc filled properly or does not?

    How can I check my backup burned restore disc filled properly or does not? He ran for 12 hours. My info is about 117 GB. He did not say, he just says no longer copy of backup disk in the process. I think 12 hours is a long time without a full review. When my hard drive failed after six months, my copy, I did not restore anything. More many times I tried to make a record to get an error just before the end. I want to be on the safe side. I don't have an installation disc since I bought this laptop pre-programmed Walmart. It is Vista Basic, so I'm out of luck if I have to redo the system and programs.

  • Firefox keeps displaying old site, ff mobile detects the new site. How can I make Office go to the new site?

    I moved my site from the old host of godaddy. updated the dns at register.com. On my phone android with firefox, I can see the new site, after I dropped the wifi and went to the data. On my desk and my husband two computers, we can only see the old site, even after clearing cache. How can I make Firefox displays the new site?

    You can reload webpages and ignore the cache to refresh potentially stale or corrupt.

    • Hold down the SHIFT key and click the Reload button
    • Press 'Ctrl + F5' or 'Ctrl + Shift + R' (Windows, Linux)
    • Press 'Command + shift + R' (Mac)

    You can delete all data stored in Firefox with a specific area through "Forget this Site" in the context menu of a history entry ("" history > view history "or" view > sidebar > History "") or via the subject: permissions page.

    Using "Forget this Site" will delete all data stored in Firefox in this area as bookmarks, cookies, words of past, cache, history, and exceptions, so be careful and if you have a password or other data from that domain you don't want to lose then check that back up these data or make a comment.

    You can't recover from this "forget" unless you have a backup of the files involved.

    It has no lasting effect, so if come back you on such a 'forgotten' site, then the data of this Web site will be saved once more.

  • How can I make Thunderbird start car with windows startup

    How can I make Thunderbird start car with windows startup

    You can by placing a shortcut in the startup folder of windows, just like any other windows program.

    However if you do, you are likely to encounter problems such as downloading email while still load the antivirus and the network is busy, announcing the arrival of machines on the network (which can be a network a) and any other program of a dozen are loading is heavy risk of timeouts and disconnections of the server as well as error messages that make little sense because they are something that still load.

    The bottom line is so safe that you can, but if there are any questions bring her out of there first.

  • How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

    How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

    Keep all the files on external hard drive image?  Nothing else and no pictures on the desktop?

    Keep all image files both places?

    What is the best way to go through thousands of images in the Organizer to identify and place them in files?

    Once I've placed a file, I just leave it in the entire catalog or a way indicate to me that it has been sorted?

    As overwhelming, any tips/shortcuts/schemes, you can offer are welcome!

    As I only have the version of the EP, here is some info on the organiser:

    https://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop-elements/how-to/use-elements-Organizer.html

    Independent of how this feature works, you want to have your photos in one place and have a backup (second copy) somewhere else. All hard drives will not be successful at some point - some more early, some late - never trust to have your files in any safety devices if they are on a single disc. Once you have your sorted, it would be useful that you will organize/name/tag new photos immediately if the task is relatively short and simple. I copy my photos on my internal hard drive for my camera, take a quick look with preview to see who needs some changes and then decide where to put them - either drop them immediately after naming them or bring in an editing application and then file them away.
