How Firefox can remember after I upgraded to Windows 7 from Vista?

I intend to have someone to do a clean install of windows7 on my HP laptop (which currently is running vista home premium) from the windows disks 7 provided by HP. My Favorites will be remembered when I reload Firefox?

All of your personal information for Firefox (bookmarks, passwords, etc.) are stored on your hard drive.

You must make a backup of your entire profile folder or some elements in your profile folder before installing Windows 7.

  1. Put the backup somewhere a course on another hard disk, CD or USB/pin/thumb/jump drive until after Windows 7 is installed, and Firefox is re-installed.
  2. Then, you can copy selected files in your profile folder under your Windows 7 Firefox installation.

Some information is duplicated in the following articles, but try all read. If you plan carefully, you should lose any of your information.

Don't forget that you will need to re - install on your new installation of Windows 7, all Extensions (including the toolbars you have installed), Plugins and themes you have installed in Firefox.

    The games you mentioned are by default Windows 7 games and these are features of Windows 7. You will need to access the Windows features and then turn them on. Check out the link and follow the steps.

    Hello

    You are unable to update or upgrade Vista 32 bit to 64 bit of Vista.

    32-bit to 64-bit, or 64 bit to 32 bit is done by a new installation using a full version of the operating system.

    32-bit and 64-bit are different operating systems.

  • Can I upgrade to Windows 7 from Vista without having to install Vista Service Pack 1?

    Several years ago, I made the huge mistake of update Win XP Pro to Win Vista Ultimate. In doing so, I immediately fell on so many questions that I spent more time each day trying to solve problems, to do the calculation and in some cases it was practically impossible to calculate all. It took about a dozen days before I have just abandoned, thrown my Windows machine into the closet and balance to a Mac. I've not looked back since.

    Well, relatively recently I bought a new laptop from lenovo with the intentions of immediately wiping of Windows 7 and Linux installation, with the hope of avoiding the headaches that I had previously with Windows. However, just out of curiosity, I decided to try Windows 7 before cleaning off the coast of the laptop and I have not had any major problems with it. So, I'm now thinking that I can dust off that Vista machine (the one that was put in the closet), if I can only he move to Windows 7.
    Almost immediately after plugging the thing, the headaches have come back with a vengeance.  I ran the Win 7 Upgrade Advisor, which basically said that everything was fine and that all that I had to do was to install Service Pack 1. Well, there is no service pack 1 in Windows update so I just downloaded the standalone file.  However, after trying to run the stand alone file, he said something to the effect that I can't because it is for installations of Windows language English, French, German and Spanish. He said in English, you the spirit, and it does because I have an English version of Windows.
    I'm now thinking that there could be another language pack on my computer so I googled how to uninstall language packs. The only information I can find on how to uninstall the language packs is to insert the Windows installation disc. I don't have the installation disc. There are years I paid an arm and a leg for a software that was virtually unusable.
    Is that anyway to upgrade to Windows 7 without having to deal with Vista and still not the upgrade price? I'm certainly not going to pay for the full version, as the last time, I would have probably had a better experience if I would have just thrown money into the fire. I don't understand why we should stop both to upgrade the operating system.
    I paid for Windows Vista and now I'm ready to pay to upgrade to Windows 7 because Vista doesn't help, but I can't because the Windows Vista I paid for is once again, pretty useless.
    Is anyway to avoid to jump through all these hoops or get all these headaches to put Windows 7 on my computer - upgrade price since I already have a useless Vista license?
    For what it's worth, I don't want to be negative, because I'm just completely frustrated at a task that should be simple - not to mention that this is the second time I'll have to post because the first time he said the server was unavailable after all the effort to write this first. I am a disabled veteran, so I did not have money to be plopping down hundreds of dollars to check if the software works or not, then that cost when he is not eating. I am now looking to mitigate my loss of Vista upgrade to Windows 7 (at least a little), but still, Vista prevents me to do.

    To remove the headache you cleaning 7 via BIOs Setup. You must then install 7 Service Pack 1 (if not included on the DVD), then the system drivers.

    A complete guide to a Dell system is available here. It will take e slightly modified for a non-Dell system, but it will give you an idea. Note that I wrote each step out in its entirety with a lot if you do not have this or that to get here, so it's a much more long/more scary looking at first sight than it actually is.
    Note: Vista is very stable (~ as stable as 7) when it's done via a clean installation and its Service Pack 1 and 2 service are installed before the drivers in the system (also mentioned in the guide). Via an upgrade, it's a nightmare that you met.
  • I've upgraded to Windows 7 from Vista on a Tablet PC and have since upgraded to Windows 8. Can I re-use the upgrade of Windows 7 on an another Vista PC?

    I have a Tablet PC originally shipped with Vista installed. I've upgraded to Windows 7 disk 3 license and have since upgraded to Windows 8 with promo code I got when purchasing a new office.

    Can I reuse the license to move an other PC from Vista to Windows 7, since the upgrade to Windows 8 would have been valid for a Vista upgrade?

    Yes, you can transfer the license of Windows 7 on another computer. Why, because the basic license is Windows Vista.

Is there a problem known with Numark, regarding Windows 7 or 64-bit... or a patch that I can download... anyone knows?

  • Upgrading to Windows 7 from Vista to get rid of the Virus?

    I currently have VISTA, but I just got the CD to upgrade Windows 7 from my school, its necessities by my program (paid with the included activation key). I would like to format my whole hard drive and do a clean install of Windows 7 from scratch. One, I wanted to Windows 7 on the PC anyway and two, I don't know that a good formatting should help get rid of this annoying virus I had trouble with for so long. However, keep in mind that I have only a Windows 7 'Upgrade CD', not the 'full' Version It let me install 7 times I do the formatting, or it only allows me to 'upgrade' to a currently installed operating system? I really wouldn't want to format my drive together and get stuck without being able to install Windows 7. I hope my question is clear. Please let me know if I need to be more specific. Thank you!

    Do not reformat the entire disk (leave the partition recovery and system, partitions reserved in place). Then, follow these instructions and be perpaired to activate by phone. Your only other option is to reinstall Vista and then you pass, this can do less annoying activation.

    How to activate Windows 7 or Vista manually (activate by phone)
    1) click Start and in the search for box type: slui.exe 4
    (2) press the ENTER"" key.
    (3) select your "country" in the list.
    (4) choose the option "activate phone".

  • Upgrading to Windows 7 from Vista unregistered (long story there)

    Hello!  I hope someone can help me.  I don't know if I'm in the right place.  I bought a computer HP 9005 XP about 2 years ago.  He constantly reminded and back for the service.

    The last time I sent it in for service they had installed a Vista motherboard into in (keep in mind the 9005 is a XP).  One day it just wouldn't run more, so rather than send new AGAIN fourth time) at HP I took it to a store office supplies nationwide, which also makes computer repair.

    For weeks, they have worked on the problem and could not understand what was wrong.  I have F-Secure so there is no worms, viruses, Trojans, etc.  FINALLY, they took that part and discovered that HP has installed a motherboard Vista inside which, as you know, is not compatible with XP hard drives, controllers, etc.

    Because Vista and XP are incompatible, they also installed a version of Vista.  A big big glitch. I have now discovered that the Vista Software "is not a legal version" and I keep on gettting messages from MicroSoft.

    I ordered a new computer customized HP which has 7 top (if it works anything like Vista just call me crazy... it's still in the box).

    NOW for my question.  , I want to buy the 'UPGRADE' to 7 for the dv9005 computer but do not know if he will be executed and, of course, once you open the box you cannot return the software.  The 'upgrade' to 7 is around $90 - $119 depending on where you buy it.  The full version is almost as much as a new computer and I paid about $1,500 for a new one.   I'm not paying penny #1 for a legal Vista upgrade.   The upgrade, as I said, is already here.  It is simply not registrable.

    I'll be able to put the 7 in addition to this upgrade (dv9005 with the)
    software for illegal/temporary Vista) or he's going to run to the mega-snags? 
    I HATE VISTA so bad... it's like h * to use.

    Once again, question is, can I buy and write about the "unauthorized" copying Vista?

    Thank you

    Please, Carey, to pay attention to my cry for help.

    I refined my original question with the right terminology and relevance in bold.  I appreciate your making it clear that I was not going to clear.  Looking back, I saw where I was everywhere in the "Council" here.  I've got 5 HP puters from MS98 to still to be installed the new 7 MS (this is the dv7 which is still sitting comfortably in its shipping box).

    I have myself not clear and I'm sorry.   I have not yet taken 7 out of the box yet.  It's the dv9005 that got all screwed up.  I REFINED MY QUESTION... Thanks for letting me know that my question was not clear.  I refined my post to make it more clear that I want to talk about the dv9005 who began his life as a XPa and is now a temporary Vista (temporary, I mean the software is something that the repair service put in and it is now for me to buy legal and good software required.)

    Is the one I want to know if I'm having problems putting 7 on top of the "temporary or illegal (call it what you like) ' program Vista on theHP DV9005, who began his life as a normal XP (old times!... normal puters to halfway!)

    Thank you for paying attention to my question, but I apparently did not say my question correctly.

    Again, it is the dv9005 that HAD XP on it, HP changed the motherboard to motherboard Vista and after that the computer was toast because Vista motherboards are not

    compatible with XP is then the computer had to be rebuilt to essentially.

    The Vista software that was put in is not a "legal" copy  I learned this today.  It is where is my concern.

    I want to install Windows 7 on Vista but if Vista is not a legal copy, I'm afraid to spend $$$ on the upgrade because you can't return opened software and I wouldn't pay a thin to a computer Vista, not to mention penny of Vista software just if I can upgrade to 7 legally.

    I HATE Vista and this computer is USELESS for me with Vista inside.

    Thanks again.

    First thing to do is to visit the HP website and determine if there are drivers for the current material - you must also run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.
    Note that if your current installation is not valid, you need to do a clean install of Windows 7, you use a full commercial license. This will destroy all information on the drive - but back first!
     
    Also note that your computer is probably still a license for the original operating system - XP, and you should be able to persuade the HP to provide an appropriate set of disks so that, assuming that the motherboard supports XP.
     
    Other than that, it is possible that the installation of Vista is not 'illegal' - just a bit borked. To analyze and solve problems for Activation and Validation, we need to see a full copy of the report produced by the MGADiag (download and save to the desktop - http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012 ) tool
    Once saved, run the tool.
    Click on the button continue, which will produce the report.
    To copy the report in your response, click the button copy in the tool (ignore the error at this stage), and then paste (using r-click and paste or Ctrl + V) in your response.

  • How to recover data after the upgrade to Windows XP Home Edition?

    Original title: lost data

    My Windows XP program has been replaced by Windows XP Home Edition. Some data was not justified.

    Is it possible to recover the data?

    My Windows XP program has been replaced by Windows XP Home Edition. Some data was not justified.

    Is it possible to recover the data?

    First of all, please note that Windows XP Home Edition is an edition of Windows XP. So it makes no sense to say that your "Windows XP program has been replaced by Windows XP Home." Exactly what edition of Windows XP you have before it was replaced with XP Home?

    In the second place, who did the replacement, and exactly how it was? Was this an upgrade? A new installation? He did go in Windows or by booting from the CD XP Home?

    Thirdly, it was not justified to exactly what data?

    Fourth, it depends on your answers to the above questions, but in all likelihood, it says No Mo is quite right: If you do not have a backup of your data on an external, you're probably out of luck, and the data are gone.
