Is it possible to have multiple windows of the same file open?
Hello
I was wondering if it is possible to have multiple windows of the same file open at the same time in Windows XP?
Thank you!
Dave
You're welcome, Dave. If you click directly on a file, it will be open only once. That's why I gave an example of starting with work stations and by navigating to the folder (open indirectly). You can access a the desktop folder in C:\Documents and Settings\
\Desktop.

I have a Windows 7 product key that has worn
It's on an Acer; the computer no longer works. I wanted to use it on my Dell Vista upgrade. I have the Acer recovery cd, but it no longer turns.
This product key is an OEM license that would not transfer rights to another computer in any case.
Your best option to buy a new license of Windows 7 license for Vista machine or review it migration to Windows 10.
Because Windows 7 is in limited stock because Microsoft ended sales in October 2013, this created demand due to its rarity. This means the retail boxed copies request a bonus, while the OEM System Builder copies remain affordable.
You can find software OEM System Builder of dozens of online merchants. The current price for OEM Windows 7 Professional Newegg, for example, is $ 140. When I checked a few minutes ago, Amazon offered packages OEM Windows 7 Professional from several vendors at prices ranging from $ 101 to $ 150. When I checked earlier, a package specifically designed for reconditioned PCs cost only $ 50 for a 64-bit copy.
There is no technical limitation to prevent you from using OEM software on your computer, although this software only works for a clean install, not an upgrade. In the past, Microsoft has been remarkably inconsistent in his advice to clients on the question of whether this practice is allowed. (See "is allowed to use Windows OEM on your own PC? Don't ask Microsoft. »)

The offending site is loaded in a second tab as well as my home page when I open Firefox. How can I stop this loading site automatically?
Hi lennynyr,
Out of curiosity, what is the additional site? You should take a look at the Knowledge Base How to set the home pagearticle.
There are the steps in this article to reset your preferences on the default home page. I would try everything first to clear all strangeness. If it works, you can try to set your homepage again to your personal preferences.
If this does not work, you should look at article unsaved Preferences.
Hope this helps!

I'm running Windows 7 pro 64-bit. I have Office 2010 installed and a host of 3rd party applications. The problem is that all my 3rd party apps are impossible to open a dialog box or the child window.
For example, if I use Open Office and am writing or Calc and go to save a document by clicking file > save, the Open Office window will quickly blink a couple of times and nothing will happen. No dialog box opens. Therefore, I'm unable to save the file. Keyboard shortcuts don't work either for this purpose. However, if I change the options in the preferences of Open Office to use dialog boxes Open native Office, then everything works fine.
The only problem with this approach is that very few applications have this option. All native applications of MS just excellent work. It's only a 3rd party app problem. So, what I get out of this is that there is probably a registry problem where applications are trying to make a call, but the key is no longer there or corrupted in some way. I'm trying not to reinstall Windows 7 because I don't want to go through the pain to reinstall all applications.
Things I've tried so far: uninstall antivirus, repair Windows, disable all controls user account, disable firewall, compatibility running administrator mode, mode reinstall application, latest updates of windows, video drivers, safe mode and updated firmware mobo. No dice. I do not have a restore point to before time, I started to notice the problem. I'm not sure that I have installed, uninstalled or removed which may have caused the issue.
This problem is killing me. Any help is appreciated.

Then, try and see if you are still not able to open Windows dialog boxes. If this isn't the case, then I think your next option would be to do a upgrade in Place who fixes Windows 7.
However, you will need to have the Windows 7 DVD.The upgrade in place is a tool to fix the system. Thanks to the special upgrade process, we will be able to repair the system. The upgrade in place will not affect the settings like photos, movies, documents, etc. that are saved on the computer. Although this operation will not remove or modify the files and installed programs, I suggest always that you back up important files before you do. In addition, you may need to reinstall the device drivers after this operation.
The detailed steps are included as below:
On-site upgrade
====================
1 log on to the system first.
2. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in the DVD drive of the computer.
3. Click Start and select computer.
4. find the "setup.exe" file in the DVD-ROM and double-click it.
5. click on install now.6. When you are prompted to enter the product key, please click Next directly without entering any key. The installation wizard will prompt and ask if you confirm to install Windows 7 without the key and choose please confirm.
7. When you get to the screen ' which type of installation you want', click upgrade to upgrade the Windows 7 system files.
Note: When running the upgrade on the spot, the system will restart automatically (several times) to merge the files and programs, please leave the computer alone and does not configure it until the 'upgrade on the spot"finished. The system should start Windows 7, once it is upgraded. Once the computer is running "upgrade on the spot", you can go and leave the computer and it completes automatically.Please answer back with an update and let us know if it helps.
Sincerely,
Marilyn

I have Windows XP Home Edition SP3, 32-bit and IE8. Do I need to upgrade to Windows 7?
The upgrade to Windows 7 is a personal decision. Chances are that if you can do what you need to do on Windows XP then it is 'useless' to upgrade. If you plan the upgrade anyway, you should first check to see that your hardware is supported under Windows 7. To do this, Microsoft has provided a program of "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor" to run on your current computer.

I currently have vista 32 professional and I want to upgrade to windows 7, I understand that I must use windows 7 Professional
is this correct and just use the regular windows 7 pro upgrade disc?
original title: Vista Business 32 - windows 7
If you want to make a room upgrade, you can use Windows 7 Pro 32-bit - you can buy and use the upgrade version. You can also buy Home Premium, but will need to perform a custom installation.
How to upgrade to Windows 7:
If you have Vista:
Update: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/help/upgrading-from-windows-vista-to-windows-7
Custom installation: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/help/upgrading-from-windows-vista-to-windows-7-custom
Then my computer run Windows 7?
Basic system requirements are listed below. Features have additional requirements.1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster 32-bit (x 86) or 64-bit (x 64) processor
1 gigabyte (GB) of RAM (32-bit) or 2 GB RAM (64-bit)
16 GB of disk space available (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)
Graphical device DirectX 9 with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver
Run Windows Upgrade Advisor to see if there are known problems that might affect installation and if you need to install the 32-bit or the 64 bit version of Windows 7.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/UpgradeAdvisorInstallation - 'upgrade' means what?
Upgrade means that you can install Windows 7 simply by inserting the Windows 7 upgrade software in the DVD drive of your PC and follow the instructions on the screen. While you are not required to backup and reinstall your files, or reinstall your programs, it is a very good idea to back up your files and settings before you start any upgrade to the software. Get more information on the software updates and best practices .Installation - what does "Custom (Clean)" Mean?
A custom (clean) installation clears the contents of the hard drive of your PC. Your files, settings, and programs will not be transferred to Windows 7. This means that to install Windows 7, you must:Back up any files and settings you want to keep
Install Windows 7
Reinstall all your files
Reinstall all the programs you want to use.
These four steps take time, skills, techniques and Windows Easy Transfer can help. However, if you are not comfortable with this process, please consider having the installation carried out by a local service provider.
