I need to do a restore on my laptop but I upgraded from premium to ultimate on the line, the restoration will cost the factory how to re - install my upgrade printed only email to purchase

I have a Sony Vaio VGN series laptop PC that is corrupted and requires a complete restoration of the factory. Recovery discs when it's upgrade in place, but I'm not sure that it will be part of the recovery. I have the original e-mail printed purchase for online upgrade, including the key I will be able to use it again on the same laptop, it was installed on?

The first thing you need to do is to get your Windows 7 Ultimate Anytime Upgrade key:
 
An e-mail containing your product key will be sent to the e-mail address associated with your Windows Live ID account or e-mail address you provided if you ignored the account configuration. Note: If you use an email tool or spam blocker spam filter, be sure that you can receive e-mail messages from microsoft.com.
 
What happens if I lose my product key?
 
If you lose your product key, you can return to

www.Windows7.com/GetKey and sign in using the "Sign In" link in the upper right of the page. This will allow to recover your product key if you have established your account with your Windows Live ID. If you do not configure a Windows Live ID account initially there is no record of your online product key. Check your e-mail since it is the only trace of your product key.
 
 
 
or

Here are four utilities, which can display your product keys if they are still there:

and RockXP: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4138.html which has additional features.

The next thing you need to do is to ensure that your data is backed up:

-------------------
 
The next thing you need to do is to reinstall the base license that you upgraded, Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate.
 
If your computer is pre-installed with Windows 7:
 
New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.
 
 
 
-Samsung uses ESC on most of its systems
 
-HP use F9 on most of its systems
 
-Fujitsu uses F12 on most of its systems
 
-Acer use F12 on most of its systems, but often you need to go into BIOS to allow

-Dell uses F12
 
 
 
In general, look at the screen during the POST for a tip for what is possible.
 
 
 
If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling.

If it was a store bought retail license:

    Hi @dinhhv

    From the symptoms you describe, especially how any changes you make on your device are lost whenever you restart, run the tool in KB @sdgardne mentioned previously (pasted again below).

    KB36747 all data are deleted after a manual restart of smartphone BlackBerry 10 and has THE blue...

    After you run this tool, can you confirm if the tool says the patch has been applied, or no patch is necessary?

    If the hotfix has been applied, please reboot your device and let me know if the changes you made before you restart are kept.

  • Upgrade Vista Home Premium to Ultimate - Windows complete PC Backup and Restore

    Dear Madam, dear Sir

    Upgraded my laptop HP DV7 Vista Home Premium to Ultimate, mainly to use Windows complete PC Backup and Restore.

    The restore time and unfortunately no option in the boot menu at startup to restore system from images. No menu advanced etc. I guess starting always remains at the level of the premium and does not provide "Windows complete PC Backup and Restore" restore options.

    Grants menu of system restore points, with only the last good restore point and no option to select point of previous restoration or system image to restore from.

    Mmmm nice ideas...

    Thanks in advance

    Good day

    Hello

    Complete PC Backup is designed for the reinstallation of the operating system that you have backed up.

    You access it to start from a Vista DVD.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/Windows-Vista-complete-PC-Restore/

    To restore a full backup of the computer, you must proceed within the Windows recovery environment. To access the Windows recovery environment, you will need to insert your Vista DVD in the DVD drive on your computer and turn on your computer.

    See you soon.

    you do not etc system restore disk cleanup to put your computer to the standards of the factory how you bought it if that's what you hear

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of vista recovery discs and also ask them if you have a vista recovery partition on your hard drive to reinstall vista back to factory standards

    you will normally need to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process vista back to factory standards

    Ask them the sequence of keys to use to start the process from the recovery partition

    If in your question that you mean how do you do maintenance work on your existing operating system, please let us know

  • All-in-One Photosmart C5150 problem with printing of emails

    This problem just started.  When I print an email, there is a large gap between the message header and the message itself, so that a message of one page turns into 2 (or more) pages.  I have an iMac OS X.  When printing in other subjects - iPages documents, web pages, etc., this problem does not occur.

    If you have Safari 5 there is a nifty little extension that you can download that takes care of your problem.  In your Safari Menu, under "On Safari" on the 2nd line is 'Safari Extensions Gallery'.  Click this button and then click on the link "productivity".  Scroll down and look for 'Print Plus' on the right side.  Click here to install the extension of your Safari.

    You will need to enter your Safari-->--> Extensions Preferences and activate the extensions on that check "Activate print more."  Once active, you will have a small icon of a printer in the top left, next to your buttons back and forth (to the left of the URL box).  When you want to print only part of a page, do not press on your normal print button.  Tap on this icon and you will then be able to select the part or parts of the pages you want to print, omitting everything else.

    Furthermore, this extension is downloadable for free, apparently on Apple.  Try this and I think you'll find that very well, he takes care of your problem.  I just installed it on my Safari!  Good luck.

    If it works for you, think about Mark this message accepted as a Solution to make it easier for others with the same question to find, thank you.

  • All my .exe files have been removed. as well as system32\rundll32.exe... How can they be retrieved when no file opens and the system restore will not work.

    All my .exe files have been removed. as well as system32\rundll32.exe... How can they be retrieved when no file opens and the system restore will not work. I can't install a fixit program or run anything at all.

    Safe mode?

    Looks like you have a virus/trojan/worm infection pretty good...

    Actually, even if you get executables run again - you can be (read as "will be") better off the coast of a new facility.  Wipe and install media with your product key and other serial numbers and installation for other products media you own and restore your last recognized reliable backup for your files.

  • Cannot install Flash Player as "only one version of this application can run.

    I had problems with Flash Player earlier today and decided to uninstall it (from Windows 7) and reinstall from scratch.  I uninstalled and tried to reinstall it but now I get the following message appears: cannot install Flash Player as "only one version of this application can run" I tried to uninstall I checked to see if there was still a program to install but it does not exist. I checked my files in Windows and there are several files called Install_Flashplayer _16x32... files. I assume that they are created whenever I tried to install Flash Player.  I thought to delete many files install FlashPlayer but decided to ask for help before taking this step.

    Browser: Firefox 35.0.1

    Windows 7 Home Premium

    64 bit OS

    I managed to install Flash Player and it works. I deleted all the installation files except one who did not want to be deleted, then I started to install Flash Player, until I got the message about the conflicting demands. I then used the Ctrl + Alt + Delete to open the Task Manager, then closed all tasks except the Flash Player one. Flash Player finished the installation. Then, I opened a TV Player in Firefox and was able to play a program that requires a Flash Player.

    Why don't I have to use the Task Manager to close applications. I don't remember the last time that I used it ut think that it was a year ago, when my computer would not shut.

  • Lost records system for OS 10.6.8. Need to clear and restore.

    I'm trying to help my friend to preserve its old Macbook (since 2007, I think). He got a few old files, it tries to convert this machine before it is retired.

    We are in a situation of need to wipe and restore, but it doesn't have the original system discs. The machine is running currently 10.6.8. I found like cnet that said we can download the software, but wanted to ask for advice before launch us into places. If you did similar things and have any advice, I would be very grateful.

    Some may suggest to pass to a newer operating system. Maybe it is possible afterwards, but for him to get these files old I don't think we can go up to past 10.8, even if it is legal to do so.

    Thank you very much!

    Even if you erase the disc, the only way to restore these files is to restore from a back upward.
