How to remove Windows vista upward?

I'm under low disk space - URGENT

Hello

a. How did you create the backup?
b. where you have stored backup?

Step 1: If your backups are stored on CD or DVD, you can throw the discs containing earlier backups, but make sure you keep the most recent backup of your files. If your backups are stored on internal or external HDD, you can delete a backup by following these steps:

a. open the location where the backup is saved.

For example, if you have backed up your files to an external hard drive labeled "E", connect the external hard drive to your computer, and then open the E drive.

b. right click on the folder containing the backup you want to delete and then click on remove.
Step 2: You can also delete files using disk cleanup.

I hope this helps.

Thanks and greetings

  • How to remove Windows Vista?

    I downloaded a fake windows vista, I was wondering if I could get out all the time... Please help

    Replace it with the moral:

    Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  • How to remove Windows Defender from Vista?

    Anyone know how to remove Windows Defender? It is not on the list of programs that can be uninstalled. When I try to remove it from the tree, I get a message that only a "TrustedInstaller" can remove it.

    It's been nothing but trouble I got my new PC in August. I spent in Avast and MalwareBytes, but I can't stop the system to get scans in tenacious Defender. I wanted to get rid of it because it will not update install. It keeps telling me that there are updates available, but the progress bar comes in with a small piece of the execution and the stalls.

    Updates Windows continues to tell me it is another Defender update available and also stops at install.

    Looks like Microsoft could do a better job of coordinating its products. I'm ready to throw the new computer and become a ludites.

    Help!

    I uninstall Norton before that I installed Avast. I went to 'Services' and 'arrested' Defender. Then I went to 'Properties' and 'Disabled' Defender. This should at least stop notifications. You can't repeat to you, I got it.

  • I need help, find how to install Windows Vista on a HP Pavilion 6475z disk.

    I need help, find how to install Windows Vista on a HP Pavilion 6475z disk.   I had to replace the hard drive, so he has nothing about it and I added more ram, but I replace the cd player so it is not yet installed on the HP.   So I was wondering if I could put the installation disc in my laptop cd/dvd and connect computers by usb ports and install it this way and if not how can I?

    Thank you

    Hello

    You are welcome

    If the CD/DVD drive in the works of PC Gateway, you can (at least temporarily) remove it and install it in the HP, you can run your recovery disc and reinstall Vista.  Once everything is running on the HP, you can always remove the CD/DVD drive and reinstall it in the gateway PC if you wish.

    Kind regards

  • How to uninstall windows vista or reformat the c drive

    How to uninstall windows vista or reformat the c drive?

    Hello

    You do not uninstall Vista as such.

    Vista cannot uninstall itself by Vista, formatting the drive that is installed on. In other words it cannot remove itself.

    You install another operating system, removal of Vista during the installation process of the other operating system...

    You don't say exactly what you are trying to do.

    You can format a disk if it a second drive with the Dual Boot operating systems and leaves without data or the operating system on it at all.

    We need more information.

    See you soon.

  • Helps to remove Windows Vista and install Windows 8

    I recently bought Windows 8 after an online test (aka Upgrade Assistant) from my computer that says it would work. However, when insert the disc of Windows 8, it is said showed an alert/warning that it may work for Windows 7 but can not for Windows Vista or XP. The salesman at Staples said it would work (so the part of why I bought it), but it might remove applications and software I had installed, take it back to factory settings. I'm fine with that, I don't mind re - install Office and my other software. I would be very happy if someone could tell me how to get Windows 8 to install and remove Vista. Here are my computer record compared to Windows 8 requirements:

    Processor - Intel (r) Core (TM) 2 Quad CPU 2.4 GHz

    RAM: 4 GB

    Hard drive: 32 Bit OS, 350GB free 451GB

    Graphics card: DirectX 10, ATI Radeon HD 3450, screen resolution 1024 X 768.

    Your help is greatly appreciated, TIA!

  • How to manage Windows Vista power management features

    Hi guys

    I searched a bit in the technical knowledge of the Toshiba and found a very interesting article on Windows Vista power management features.

    * [How to manage Windows Vista power management features | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD84026Q0000R01.htm] *.

    The fact is that you will not find one tool of Toshiba Power Saver on Vista as on Windows XP laptops and the parameters energy saver is a bit hidden in Vista power saving settings.

    But you can also control some options as a method of cooling or power saving Mode.

    I think that it could be interesting for some people here in the forum!

    Greetings to all!

    Thanks JayJay.
