  Do you know how to back up your data first? Once you do this, you can follow these instructions:

  http://support.Acer.com/acerpanam/desktop/0000/Acer/AspireE360/AspireE360faq40.shtml

  That being said, why do you do this? A clean install (or its equivalent) is rarely necessary.

• How to upgrade my adobe reader 8.1 Windows software to the latest version?

  I want to update adobe reader on my Windows 8.1 applications software to the latest version without creating two adobe readers.  How do I do that?

  Hi toddc57146299,

  Please note that Windows OS 8.1 has a built-in pdf reader. I hope that you do not confuse with Adobe Reader.

  If you have Adobe Reader installed on your machine, go to the Help menu and then click on "Check for updates".

  You can also install the latest version of Adobe Reader using this link: Adobe Acrobat Reader DC install for all versions ; It would automatically replace the previous version.

  Kind regards

  I can't update my iPad iOS 10.0.2 it repeat to myself that my current version 9.3.5 is the most recent available.  How can I update my iPad? When I have it plugged into my laptop it also says that my iPad is up-to-date.

  A first generation iPad mini is not powerful enough to run iOS 10; they require an A6 or better CPU.

• How can I determine that trusted root certificates in the Certification authorities are all valid

  I was looking in the Lenovo Superfish Adware (I have her, much less a Lenovo) and I read an article in PC world who said Superfish installs a root certificate self-produced in the Windows certificate store for trusted root Certification authorities, and then quit all SSL certificates, presented by the HTTPS sites with its own certificate :

  http://www.PCWorld.com/article/2886278/how-to-remove-the-dangerous-SUPERFISH-adware-presintalled-on-Lenovo-PCs.html

  This led me to run certmgr.msc (Certificate Manager) on my PC to see what certificates were in CAs roots of trust and to my surprise there are 321 certificates listed. How can I determine that all these certificates are all valid?

  I use Kaspersky Internet Security 2015 and Windows Defender and update the definitions and conduct analyses regularly, with negative results. I have no problem at all with my PC, I'm just worried.

• After disk hard crash, loaded Windows 7 and get "Software Licensing Service determined that specified only usable product key for the upgrade, not for new installations.

  Original title: Windows Vista product key used for any new installation.

  I bought the upgrade from Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows Vista CD, then had a hard drive crash, then installed a new hard drive. Load the purchased Windows 7 on new hard drive, now I get the message '... Software Licensing Service determined that specified only usable product key for the upgrade, not for new installations. That means that I have to load Vista on the new hard drive, and then update? Both for the end user (paying customer) hostile.

  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.

  Hello

  I wonder if there is another way to activate my genuine copy of Windows XP Professional, because when I try to activate via the activate Windows

  Assistant, all I get is a message saying that the 'online activation could not be completed at this time. "

  Its weird because this is the first time I met this kind of problem after format and do a clean install of Windows XP in which, incidentally, I do

  every year since 2006. (This is to keep my computer and working properly).

  And also, if I tried to validate my copy of Windows XP by using Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer 8, but I keep getting "Validation failed".

  Any ideas what could possibly cause this? coz I already formatted my computer three times since yesterday in the hope that it could solve the problem, but with no luck.

  I hope someone could help me with this.

  Thank you and happy holidays to all.

  See you soon!

• After 4 years of use my computer without any problems at all, I get a message saying that my copy of Windows Vista is NOT activated.

  Original title: Vista Activation issue

  After 4 years of use my computer without any problems at all, I get a message saying that my copy of Windows Vista is NOT activated.

  Of course, he was and has been deleted now tile view! I made no changes to anything on the computer, so I did a little research

  and found that it could be a virus trying to get 'paid' for a new activation code. I did a complete reinstall of Vista to remove

  such viruses or errors and it still say my copy of Vista is not activated. When I try to follow the steps to activate Vista,

  I got nowhere! Everything I've read say s do the activation of the phone, but my computer doesn't give me the option of phone!

  It gives me only 3 options - "Buy a new online product key", "Enter a different product key", "Contact Hewllet Packard to help solve this problem."

  I called HP and of course my warranty has expired and they even want to talk to me about $100! I'm going crazy trying to figure this out! Help someone?

  Thanks for the reply, but I tried ALL the links you've posted over and over again until I've already posted my question here! The links you suggested sent me round in circles! They say all "choose the Activate by phone option" but I was not getting the phone option on my computer for some reason any.

  I have corrected the problem and HERE IS HOW - 1-800-Microsoft

  It was as simple as that! Now, if only they post this number somewhere here on the site it might save people hours or days of research! After calling the number, work your way through the automated system until you get a man! The guys at Microsoft that answered the phone was great and had activated me and up and running in minutes!

• Microsoft keeps tellingmy that my copy of Windows is not genuine!

  Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit

  This is the same operation SystemI have had on this computer for the past 6 years, since I bought it all first!  Nothing has changed!  I had no repairs!  There was a Windows Update yesterday and I thought that this could be the problem I did a system restore point before.  That did not help.

  I remember at one point, it says that an update today could not get through and that my copy of windows is not genuine.

  I'm getting pretty annoyed with Microsoft.  They tried to push Windows 10 discount on me for months now and I refuse continuously.  They tried some devious stuff as if we were trying to tell me again and again that my hard drive is about to fail.  I had the drive hard Sentinel and it shows me that my hard drive is 100% excellent health and performance right now, where a week ago, it is 0% and is about to fail.  He did it again and again for a year now, ready to fail a week, then the other it is still 100% perfect once, this has happened since MS came out with Win 10 and wanted everyone to download it for FREE!

  My system information file says I have Win 7 Home premium and it came from Microsoft, so I don't know what to tell them, but they tell ME that I can't get more updates until I install a new Windows OS.

  This is total BS!

  How do I stop this and recognize it as the same operating system that it has always been for the last 6 years?

  Complain do not solve your problem. This type of problem arises for various reasons including:

  1. Malware infestation.

  2. Changing or adding a device installed.

  3. Corruption of the system.

  The easiest way to go is to re - enter the product key, following the instructions of my p [message back.
