I can save Windows.old after W-10 upgrade?

R3 - 131T Mobile.

Finally got the W-7 complete upgrade.

With the Hynix HBG4e HDD, there is only 4.83 GB left on the disk.

Windows.Old uses 14.2 GB while Windows uses only 9.7.

Can I take off the .old and save it to a flash drive without jeopardizing the return to 8.1?

And what I want to do this?

There may also be a $Windows. ~ tmp directory that contains the restore information. During installation when I was told there was not enough room on my W3, I put it on the SD card and renamed Windows.81. You can also store a backup external image file.

    Windows.Old contains all your old files of program, Windows, and personal spaces (C:\Users\your name\etc).

    You can delete it (you need to maybe take possession of this first and reassign your rights to him). But like I said that it contains your old personal folders and office, you still have stuff in there you want.

    Original title: upgrade Windows 10

    I made an iso file for windows 10. I am waiting to upgrade until all the bugs are being developed. My question is: will the iso file of windows 10 still work to upgrade my computer to windows 7 after the date limit to install the free version?

    The ISO will work after the date limit, but you can buy Windows 10 after the date limit, if you don't improve and activate it before that date.

    Windows 10 is delivered as a service:

    Windows July 10 release - build 10240

    Windows Update 10 November - build 10586 (with many updates depuis.13,.29,. 36)

    If you want to take advantage of the free offer, you must do so before July 29, 2016.

    If you the newer versions are released before then, you can always download and install when it becomes available.

    You could also install it now then download updates via Windows Update as soon as they are available.

    Task of pre-required

    When you make significant changes to your computer for example updated operating system, you must always back up. See the links to resources on the backup by clicking the link for each version of Windows you are using: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1

    then

    then

    • Turn off (preferably uninstall) your Antivirus utility before you perform the upgrade.
    • Reboot several times, and then try again.
    • Disable the general USB peripherals (for example - smart card reader).
    • If you are using a SCSI drive, make sure you have the drivers available for your storage on a thumdrive device and it is connected. During the installation of Windows 10, click on the advanced custom Option and use the command load driver to load the driver for the SCSI drive. If this does not work and the installer still fails, consider switching to an IDE based hard drive.
    • Perform a clean boot, restart, and then try again.
    • If you upgrade to the. ISO file, disconnect from the Internet during the installation, if you are connected in LAN (Ethernet) or wireless, disable both, then try to install.
    • If you are updated through Windows Update, when download reaches 100% disconnect from the LAN (Ethernet) Internet or Wi - Fi, then proceed with the installation.
    • If this does not work, try using the. ISO file to upgrade if possible.
    • If you are connected to a domain, go to a local account.
    • If you have an external equipment, attached to the machine, unplug them (example, game controllers, USB sticks, external hard drive, printers, peripherals not essential).

    Hi all

    We are aware of the problem where InDesign crashes on launch while working with library files stored on a network location.

    We are working on resolving the issue and for the moment, please try the solution that we have identified.

    To work around the problem, please follow the steps below:

    Clear the Cache InDesign either by renaming the Cache folder or deleting it altogether. (It is best to rename the folder)

    The location of the cache folder: -.

    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\Settings\Application Data\Adobe\InDesign\------\Caches\

    Windows 7 or 10: C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Adobe\InDesign\-\Caches\

    Macintosh: Drive hard/users/InDesign/Library/Caches/Adobe///.

    In addition, if your workflow requires you to work with the (different) library placed on the network, please make sure you close the library panel before leaving InDesign.

    Acrobat 7 is not compatible with Windows 7, so it's difficult to judge how the application on an incompatible environment will behave.
