I can't find Windows Essentials in my control panel?
When I looked in my control panel I don't see my windows essentials?
also can I delete my old files to windows safely?
Windows Live Essentials is a Suite of separate programs and does not a manager in the Panel itself. Instead what direction he gets there by the entry in the list programs and features.
Once you have moved the files that you want to keep the Windows.old directory using disk cleanup > Clean system files utility to delete the folder to avoid problems of permissions.

Where can I find the bluetooth device on control panel of Windows XP?
I have a wireless printer not communicating with computer. The directions said to go to the control panel and click on the bluetooth device, but I do not see a device on the control panel. Where can I find the bluetooth device?
One of reasons behind the first two questions of Vinod, is that not all computers have a Bluetooth built-in support. Most modern laptops don't, but many computers to office, including the new ones, are not.
Do you know if your computer has Bluetooth support? If you don't know, what is the brand and model of your computer?
If you have a laptop computer, is turned on Bluetooth? Many laptops have a (often Fn + F5) switch that turns radios (Bluetooth or wifi) on and outside. Check with your computer user Guide.
Please answer 4th issue of Vinod as well (brand & model printer).

I can't find Windows Defender under my services for my computer laptop windows 7.
* Original title: Windows Defender
I can't find Windows Defender under my services for my computer laptop windows 7.
(Moved to repair and recovery)
Hello
Windows Defender on Windows 7 is only antispyware. It has disabled (to avoid potential conflicts) during the installation of various programs of anti-malware to include (but not necessarily limited to) AVG, McAfee, MSE and Norton.
So, probably your antivirus product has disabled Windows Defender. If so, you should not try to turn on WD.
See you soon,.

Firefox asked me to upgrade my sound system & in the process, I have installed a Zombie and I can't uninstall it in Windows 7 via my control panel. I expected more of Firefox as a privacy feature!
Sorry to hear about this, you should always beware of the pop-ups - never open or install anything, unless it is on the official website. Firefox has built-in features (and extensions that you need to find and install) to protect your privacy and security, but all users must still be careful with their browsing habits. You can report malicious links to the FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center here: http://www.ic3.gov/complaint/default.aspx
You can also report false web documents by clicking on:
- Help > report false Web, or

> Report false Web
Regarding your malware, please follow this guide:
After removing your malware, consider extensions such as Adblock Plus.

You won't find Win7 drivers for all models again. But you can use most of Vista drivers in Win7.
However the Toshiba site has some beta drivers, you can try.
