I think I deleted windows... How can I get it back? Help!?
I downloaded Ubuntu stupidly just to see what it was... but I think I should have deleted windows vista. When I turn on my computer, it brings me to a screen startup 'grub '. Windows vista is listed, but when I click on it the screen goes black just and he brings me to return. It happened when I upgraded to ubuntu 10 and I guess he resumed the computer or something. and vista.can deleted windows (or hopefully just hidden) to get it back? or at least upgrade to windows 7? can I use the version upgrade instead of the full version? Help, please!
You need a Vista operating system upgrade within go to Windows 7 (depending on the version).
Read this instead:
Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .
There is no Vista free download legal available.
Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.
Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.
See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.
Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...
Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.
They will tell you how to do this.
Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s etc).
A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.
There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.
If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):
At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu
Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

After installation > go to the website of the manufacturer of your computer/notebook > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > get latest Vista drivers for it > download/install them.
Save all data, because it will be lost during a clean installation.

I deleted all the games that come with Windows XP including Solitaire. How can I get that back?
Hi andypily1,
Welcome to the Microsoft Answers community.
Try the steps one by one and check below.
STEP 1:
How do I add or remove games in Windows XP
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/307768
STEP 2:
In most cases if the games are deleted from the computer files will remain on the computer.I suggest that you are looking for game files in the system32 folder.
Later, click on Start menu click on run and type c:\\windows\system32 in the following search of the window for the file of games like free cell. If you get the files in the system32 folder then copy the file to c:\\program files\start menu\ later in the game folder.
STEP 3:
If fails it above steps, try a system restore to the point when the game was available on the computer.
See the link below to learn how to perform the system restore.How to restore Windows XP to a previous state

Where is Snipping Tool? If deleted accidentally, how can I get a copy for Windows Vista?
Hello Bob w. NY
Click on the Start button and type capture in the search box menu star. The cutting tool application should appear at the top of the search results.
As the cutting tool is an integral part of Windows, you might have to reinstall windows to return to the tool. Assuming, of course, you had accidentally deleted.

I accidentally deleted the directory "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Microsoft ' my 64 bit Windows Vista system. How can I get it back?
original title: C:\Program Files (x 86) \MicrosoftYou can try this program:
http://www.filehippo.com/download_recuva/
Use the deep Scan option. It may take some time.
The System File Checker can repair some of the files in there, but probably not all.
It's probably at least some of the files that have been overwritten. so I would say the the more safe thing to do is to reinstall Windows.
