I think XP has better functionality and usefulness than Windows Vista. Is this good?

is vista fail?

Overall, Windows XP has been easier to work with, understand and had everything necessary to be functional.  This makes Vista seems like a front more than anything, since it is less useful than XP.

Hello

I suggest you to refer the link mentioned below, which indicates the characteristics of the different versions of Windows.

  • My email has been hacked and used to send Spam. I have to perform a virus check, or simply change the password?

    My email has been hacked and used to send Spam. I have to perform a virus check, or simply change the password?

    Do not install or run an anti virus app.

    How do you know that your email has been "hacked"? It is a common practice for spammers to forge an envoy from the e-mail address. It may be that your email address has been misused. There's nothing to do if this is the case for you. The spammer will soon pass and usurp another email address.

    It's a good idea to immediately change your password by email if someone would actually managed to access your e-mail account.

  • I opened PS3 and see a window "license for this product has stopped working". Help!

    I have the PS3.  A few months ago, I had an iMac 27 "10.11.2 opportunity and transferred my PS3 (plus any creative suite 3) top.  There was a window that says please register in 5 days or it will be inactive (or something like that). I did what I was supposed to do and have appreciated the help of PS3 on this new iMac.  Everything worked very well. Last night I shut down my computer before a separate software has been updated done and makes the iMac not able to start.  The only option I found was to erase the hard drive and install using Time Machine. (I use the bad terminalogy)   I did and everything was successful until I opened PS3 and see a window "license for this product has stopped working".  Help!  It is said one solution is to uninstall. When I went to the Adobe Uninstaller I saw NO PS3, but see icon with "Add or remove Adobe Creative Suite 3 Production Premium" with a small arrow, that I have the means to think his alias and I don't know where he lives. Can someone help me get back my PS3?  Thank you!

    Please stay on point and help me with my problem of PS3 and not encourage me to upgrade to what is current.  I have SP6 here, but want to keep the PS3 will.

    Thank you.

    Whenever you retrieve from a backup Time Machine, you will break licenses and need to run a repair. I know. I did it twice. As the instructions given in the doc to Adobe using own isn't enough for someone new to the procedure, I set up a screenshot guide.  Layout error 150:30 opening Photoshop cs4 on Macbook Pro

    If you go through this guide to screenshot and do exactly as indicated, you won't make those mistakes. Perhaps it would be good to read first. I carefully put in place this guide, my instructions are good in their current form, do not do anything else.

    In the first post #11, I forget to add a space after "sudo python" before you drag the licenserecovery.py to the command line, and I never load any type of break line or before you drag the script.

    Second: In #15 if you simply slide the script into the window, it will be on the same line.  What you see is the packing of command to work around the size of the window, but it is always on the same line and will run when you enter your password.

    You will also see that there is a space between "python" and the script in the screenshot.

    Again, if you are new to this, read first.

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  • Changed the hard drive and stays of Windows vista is not genuine

    Original title: why do need me a new product key
    My computer stopped working and a new hard drive has been implemented. Now my computer asks for a product key and my computer says that I am using a windows vista that is not authentic. My background goes black and won't keep any substance I put in place.

    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft community!

    b. click System Properties on the toolbar and then click here to activate Windows now in the Windows activation section.

    Hello

    Flash Player and Windows Media Player are not interchangeable.

    Like many things on the web, the Flash Player local storage can be put to bad use. This does not necessarily mean the Flash Player without scruples or bad product - it's the sites Web/people who abuse of this (depending on your point of view).

    You can configure Flash Player to block local storage on your computer. This does not necessarily all the features of Flash Player - for example with my set of Flash Player to block local storage I can still see videos on YouTube.

    The controls for the Flash Player local storage can be found here: *

    Start-> Control Panel-> Flash Player (32-bit) (Tab instorage )

    There is a good explanation of privacy and local storage of Flash Player here:

  • How can I uninstall windows 7 and return to windows vista?

    Uninstall windows 7 Home premium

    How to uninstall windows 7 Home premium package and re install windows vista Home premium SP1

    Given what you have...

    Get/use your Windows Vista Home Premium media (and product key) to start to go and destroy (create new partitions and format) everything that you installed and install again.

    Once you have Windows Vista Home Premium installed, get SP1 and SP2 (in order) to get Vista to update Service Pack, then get all the post-SP2 hotfixes/updates to update installed.

    You also need to locate, download, and install all the drivers for hardware devices,-either by the manufacturer of the computer as a whole (if it's a Dell, Lenovo, Gateway, HP, etc.) or by each manufacturer of components support pages (Intel, Realtek, various manufacturers of motherboard, AMD/ATI, nVidia, Broadcom, etc..)

    You can then install all other applications (office suites, photo-editing suites, video editing suites, Internet plugins, alternative browsers, Internet plugins, etc) and activate the paid applications using the appropriate series/product numbers.

    At this point, you can restore all your backups (documents, music, photos, emails, contacts, databases, spreadsheets, presentations, Favorites/internet Favorites, etc.) on the computer.
