If the Windows 7 key can activate windows XP Professional?

First of all - what you were doing was not a legitimate path in the first place. The Dell OEM was probably already used on a Dell system at some point.
Second - to activate Windows XP Professional OEM, you need a product key for Windows XP Professional OEM. No, the Windows 7 licenses will not help you.
Probably your only choice (and is not the best) is to locate someone sell Windows XP Professional on the Internet, find the provider that you can trust most, purchase and use of the CD and the product key you get to install.

It is possible that there is a problem with the files that store the registry extensions.

Trying to rip songs from a CD to design with an SD card via USB.
In the WMP library, you click on organize and select manage libraries - music. What places are? If there is no available location, remove them and also make sure that the default saving location is set. Do the same for the other libraries (videos, pictures, and Recorded TV).
If this does not help, close WMP, open Windows Explorer, right-click the music library, select properties and click on restore by default. After that, make sure that a backup location is defined (as indicated by a check mark).

During the closure after a browsing session I find several windows behind the window of the main browser I have not opened and they must be closed individually. What is the cause and how can I stop it? Edit
These windows display ads? They could be 'pop-under' designed to show when you are finished with your main window. Orbitz has these, for example. Irritating. I'm not sure of the best solution, i.e., advertising blocker blocker vs.
If they are not ads, can you think anyway that they are related to the sites you visit?
In addition, to close a tab (or window, if there is only one tab), you can press Ctrl + w. could speed up the process of their release until you find a real solution.

HP Envy 17: Clean install Windows 10 without upgrade.
Hello
First of all, I am very happy with my new HP laptop first, it's amazing!
Now my problem. The laptop came with 8.1 Windows preinstalled with a free upgrade to Windows 10, however, I want to do a clean install Windows 10 without going through the process of upgrading (or would defy a 'clean' install), without additional software (I have already downloaded all the drivers and software from HP Web site) and I wanted to make the installation of the driver/software myself.
Now, I had the key OEM with software, however...
I read several threads related to this problem, the recommended steps were required to use the creator of media, but that won't install it Windows 8.1? I know that I coud after upgrade, but I wanted to avoid this step
In any case to create support for Windows 10? If I clean install 10 Windows with a retail key, I'll lose the built in recovery?
Thank you very much for your kind attention,
Best regards
Francisco
To answer your questions:
(1) MS media creation tool: Activation in Windows 10 - Windows help offers several options: to upgrade this PC now, create installation media (download the ISO file), create an installation (DVD or USB) media. Choose the option that suits you - understand that upgrading PC, this option does NOT create an ISO file or installation media.
(2) lose the built-in recovery. IF you ask on the resumption of Win8x HP - then Yes. That no longer works after upgrade Win10.
(3) retail vs upgrade and recovery: Version does not matter, you will lose HP Win8x recovery without worrying.
(4) retail key - you get ONLY a touch of detail if you buy a copy at Win10 retail. The version proposed for the free update does not product keys for activation. You MUST install a version upgrade on top of an existing installation of Win7/8/8.1 so that it will activate. If you install directly from media Win10 Upgrade, starting from the media and did an install clean, not only will win 10 then NOT activate, right now, it will NEVER activate. MS talking about providing an option IN THE FUTURE, to allow people to enter a Win7/8/8.1 existing product key - but this feature is not present today.

Can I switch from Windows XP to Windows 7 by installing Windows 7 without uninstalling XP?
Original title: improvement of the operating system.
Can I switch from Windows XP to Windows 7 by installing Windows 7 without uninstalling XP?
Yes, and in fact you must do in order to qualify for the upgrade price. You must realize, however, this update of XP to 7 involves a "custom installation" - that is, you must save your data first (on external support) and to reinstall all your applications after that Win 7 is running.
Under certain circumstances, installing Windows 7 might create a windows.old file, but it's not clear to me what is stored in memory in the transition from XP to 7. you will certainly be able to run one of your older applications without having to reinstall them. See, for example, http://www.chron.com/business/silverman/article/Going-from-Windows-XP-to-Windows-7-It-s-not-1609463.php

I can install Windows 7 without initially providing the product key?
Peut I install Windows 7 without initially provide the product key during installation? I'd rather go once the installation is finished, I just have to copy and paste it in the email like that.Hello
Yes, you can try a free key of Windows 7 Installation. But be sure that you enter the product key to activate Windows wihtin 30 days grace period. Once the 30 days grace period end your system will go in any safe and you may need to reinstall the copy again.
Unlike Windows Vista, if you si vous achetez buy Windows 7 DVD you get specified edition disk and installation you will not get an option to select the edition. Almost to the last step of the Installation, you will get the opportunity to enter the product key that you can jump and try to enter the product at the time of the Activation key.
Thank you
