How to migrate to Windows 7 - the company - German to Win 7 Professional - English (keeping all my programs and data)

Original title: HOW TO: W7-company-German to W7-professional-Englisch (keeping all my programs and data)

Hi all

I have installed W7-company-German. After having changed jobs & employer, I received a copy of W7-professional-English.

How can I install the new version AND keep my data, programs, configs?

The installation process indicates that an upgrade from English into German is not possible, I have to do a custom where installation all my data (and programs) will be lost. Of course, I have backups, but re - install all programs will take ages...

Any help?

Peter

Unfortunately, this option is not possible. You will need to do a custom install using your Windows 7 Professional CD and recover your data from the Windows.old folder:

Another option if you don't mind not continue working in German is the following:

Of course, you will need to use the German media Windows 7 Professional for this task:

  • How to migrate from Windows XP to Windows 7 non-destructively?

    How to migrate from Windows XP to Windows 7 to non-destructively?... meaning is there a way to do this without backup data (on the XP disk), the Windows 7 upgrade and then restore the XP backup data?

    Moreover, since the structures of folders (I am told are slightly different) XP and Windows 7 where can I restore the data from?

    for example where my Documents from XP to go on the side of Windows 7? and so on... there at - it a 'table of equivalence' for this?

    Thank you.

    The upgrade to Windows XP?

    Please read these instructions carefully and completely before you begin installing Windows 7: there are important steps that you must follow to upgrade your PC from Windows XP to Windows 7 in order to preserve your files and settings.

    Before you begin, you'll need to backup all your data to an external storage device, and you will need all the installation discs for the programs that you want to keep. Please make sure that you have an external hard drive (see details below).

    More detailed instructions are available at windows.microsoft.com/upgrade-windows-xp. Here are the basic steps.

    1. start Windows Upgrade Advisor (windows.microsoft.com/upgradeadvisor) to see if there are known issues that may affect the installation and the question of whether you should install the version of 32 or 64 bit Windows 7.

    2 back up your files and settings on an external hard drive using Windows Easy Transfer (windows.microsoft.com/windows-easy-transfer). If you do not have an external hard drive, you will not be able to use Windows Easy Transfer. Alternatively, you can copy the files you want to keep on a USB stick, CD or DVD.

    3. you will need to manually reinstall your programs, such as Microsoft Office, after I installed Windows 7. Gather the installation for your programs and all partner/license product key discs. You may be able to download programs from the Internet. For example, Windows Live Messenger can be installed from the download.live.com/messenger.

    4. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in your PC. When asked "which type of installation you want. Click on "Custom (advanced)."

    5. when Windows 7 is installed, use Windows Easy Transfer to restore your files and settings.

    If you are not comfortable Windows 7 installation, check with a local retail or the services of the PC company store to see if they offer upgrade services.

  • If I have 64-bit and 32-bit on the same computer, do I have access to the same programs and data?

    Currently, my system is Windows 7 64 bit with 8 GB of RAM. I know that the 32-bit version can use only 2 GB but it runs on a computer that has more, right? Assuming I'm right about that, if I install both, should I rate the same programs and data?

    You can install the two operating systems on a player, but you must create a separate partition for one of them.
    You can share data, but not the programs that each application must be installed in each version.
    That said, I see no benefit in the same version of Windows, but with different pieces of dual-boot. Why would you do?

I've been back up the System State and the drive C with NTBackup. After I restored on HP Proliant, that I want to migrate, the DNS server is timeout request and the client cannot join domain. I was surprised, because the backup and the material is the same, but it can work as well as the original server.
    in the second case,
    I have windows server 2003 in HP Proliant server and it works well. I'm doing a replication on this server to another windows 2003 server in an another HP Proliant and works of good replication (another user can join the domain). After, I have installed windows server 2008 to another PC and make the replication of the duplication of windows 2003. And this success to replicate, but not on the DNS (DNS query time-out).

  • HP Envy 17, Win 7 64 bit - how to re - install windows when the old hard drive failed?

    The laptop won't boot and drive fails Diagnostics to market. Restore does not work and take the hard drive on the laptop & connection on my desktop I can not access the recovery partition. The laptop is out of warranty.

    I have a replacement drive, but as I have no install disc and cannot access the recovery partition how can I reinstall the Windows OEM 7 new hard disk?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    If the full 25-character windows activation key is visible on the Microsoft Windows COA on your laptop, you can download an identical iso file from here and install Windows.

    Download the drivers from the HP support for your laptop computer portal. Put them on a flashdisk usb (USB key) for ease of installation.

    Use the Microsoft Windows 7 USD\DVD download tool and a 4 GB usb (thumbdrive) flashdisk for the fastest and most reliable Windows installation medium.

    The value in this way you can have your laptop in a usable state while you wait for your ordered recovery disk.

  • How to serve a notice on the company

    My son Simon bought two sets of Apple iphone 5 s gold 16 GB from Apple Pty Ltd. PO Box *, South of Sydney, NSW * void tax bill No. * dated 23.10.2013 for his parents carrying our IME * and *.

    The game wearing No. IMEI * with no. Sl C3 * RC6 was used by my wife Narinder Kaur. developed at the front desk of a problem of signal and as such were handed over to the Apple Care Office located in Sydney, Australia and I got an instrument of replacement with the SL no. DQ * RC6.

    After a few months the mobile replaced stuck search mode for the suppliers of signals of mobile networks. I presented the game of service/repairs on 11/02/2016, Job # * with b2xx Service Solutions India Pvt. Ltd., Netaji Subhash Place, New Delhi-* CIN: *. I'm at the point on the client, the service representative open and inspected all before accepting the set for the service.

    16/02/2016 when I was away from Delhi, I learned that you can resume your game as even failed his test that finds that the device is damaged and so forth. I want to emphasize that all has been opened for the first time by Executive b2xx for inspection before accepting the same for repairs.

    I did not collect all of the service centre and the 18/02/2016 spoke to the toll-free * and later with JASMINE * Office of Singapore, who has been very cooperative and gave the ID number of *. Today, I was informed that motive could not be repaired despite his best efforts.

    I strongly dispute your claim because I haven't shown or given this phone to a third person / unauthorized for the programmed time has been handed to me by Apple Australia.

    Now the question where the mobile is tempered and was damaged. Or even not at all certain hardening was done in the mobile game, it could be either to Apple Australia - who could give this tempered put to me or to some foul-smelling waters by the Agency outsourced in India IE b2xx Service Solutions India Pvt. Ltd., Netaji Subhash Place, New Delhi-*. The instrument was lying with b2xx five days before it could be projected and it is the place most likely where the culprits could have played their role. ONCE MORE I swear I hadn't given access to my phone to a third person and Apple should own upwards of quenching, as appropriate to themselves and stop launching of false allegations and baseless on me.

    I'm asking that the mobile can get served immediately because I suffer a lot because of the failure on the part of the company and the mental agony because of these false allegations attributed to me.

    FYI, you're talking about other users on these forums of users, not Apple and iTunes support - and it is not a good idea to post personal information on a public forum.

    As far as I can see from your post, you use an authorized repairman, not Apple for repair. Have you contacted that FSAA again?
