• Hi I have windows xp sp3 and recently when iam to rename a file or folder is to show that "If you rename this file .This will be unusable" so, how do I change it?

  How can I change it please help me...
  Visit this link for the dialog that I saw when I am trying to rename the file

  Looks like you are trying to remove the extension. Probably because you do not know its there - by default, Windows HIDES extensions knows it.

  Use Control Panel-folder Options (or select it from the Tools drop-down in Windows Explorer). Click the view tab and uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types", and then click OK.

  The name of your file will now show you its extension, i.e. the bit after the point. The extension defines what program will try to open the default file. If you change the extension so it can not open by double click.

  When you rename, do not change the bit after the point, unless you know it's the right thing to do.

  You can try loading the latest driver available in Compatibility Mode which sometimes
  work however, it isn't anywhere near a sure thing.

  Exhausted all other methods in the Troubleshoot utility above before trying these.

  Logon as ADMINISTRATOR for all of them.

  You can try Compatibility Mode but this rarely works on the device drivers.

  Right click on the driver executable (.exe) file - select Compatibility Mode

  In the drop-down menu choose XP or Vista and Service Pack (if it is the version
  "you try the drivers).

  Click OK, and then let the race to see if it will install.

  It also rarely works on the device drivers but it is worth trying:

  Another method to try is to run the .exe (if self extraction) or Unzip (if it is compressed) to a folder:

  CD \the path to this folder as C:\User\Your user Name\Camera_Folder or whatever the path
  is the folder where the driver is unpacked.

  In this case it would be \User\Your User Name\Camera_Folder CD and would look at the prompt:

  This in type at the prompt and press ENTER.

  It will take a little time to respond.

  If it does not (error) use the full path to the driver, for example (which can be used for)

  The windows of origin is always on display as shown above, but I received a free upgrade to Windows XP Professional CD and installed on my computer. And under 'Information system', it shows as - Microsoft Windows XP Professional 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3.

  This problem started about 10 days when I used the CD of XP Professional to correct a problem. My computer is a Dell Dimension 5100 and I have two CDs that were sent to me - Dell - Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP 3 and Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Version 2005 with update Rollup 2.

  Thanks again and I ran the "fix it" you suggested but it have no problem found to fix. Every thing works fine on my system, but Media Center won't play DVD. It will play CDs and videos on my system.

  The initial problem was that I could not download the Blackberry Desktop Software - updates needed. The computer came with Windows XP Media Center Edition Home and I use Internet Explorer 8 as my default browser. I also use Mozilla Firefox as my backup browser.

  Please stick to your thread to avoid confusion of origin: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-windows_update/i-have-upgraded-to-windows-xp-professional-and-now/f5245962-e9b4-4415-8aff-bc1d972f8120

  Note that I asked you to MOVE your original thread on the forum of material WinXP, not start a new thread.

  Also note that you don't have NO Windows XP Media Center Edition, installed now if you upgraded to Windows XP Professional.

  PS: If "winver" still says Windows XP Media Center Édition, did you not correctly upgraded & something is not. Better contact the Dell Support on this issue (if they'll still talk to you).

• Windows 7 Professional, and Windows XP (Service pack 3)

  While trying to download Microsoft lync, under compatibility it says that we can help you, you chose the settings: mode of compatibility Windows xp (service pack 3), however, I have Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. I often get the message that I have XP service pack 3. How to combat this? Thank you!   Diane

  Hello Diane,.

  Thanks for posting your question on the forum of the Microsoft community.

  I would like to know some information about the problem so that we can help you better.

  1. have you done any hardware or software changes to your computer recently?
  2. What is the full error message or code when you say, "I often get the message that I have XP service pack 3?

  The message, ' we can help you chose the settings: compatibility mode, Windows xp (service pack 3) "does not mean that Windows xp is installed on your computer. It only shows that you may need to install the program in compatibility mode with windows xp so that it works properly with Windows 7.
