    How can I get Snipping tools im using Vista and this control panel and then enable or disable the thing pc isn't here. Help?

    Hello

    You don't say which edition of Vista you are using.

    Vista Home Basic Edition does not have the "snipping tool".

    If you have a different edition of Vista, read the information on how to find it:

    http://www.PCWorld.com/article/137099/activate_vistas_snipping_tool.html

    If you have one version of Vista, other than the Home Basic edition, you already have the Snipping Tool screenshot utility: click on Start, all programs, accessories, Snipping Tool. If you do not see here, it cannot be activated. Go to the Control Panel and open programs and features (you may need to click programs first). In the left pane, click Windows turn features on or off. If necessary, click continue when you are prompted by user account control. Scroll down the list of features, check the box next to Tablet PC optional components, and click OK. Marketing of these features gives you not only the Snipping Tool, but also input panel Tablet PC, Windows Journal and other features related to the stylus.

  • Restoring backup using Vista

    I replaced my hard drive, reloaded Windows Vista and went to restore my backup I have on my external hard drive using the 'restore on another computer files"but I get a message that says that the files I am restoring have security clearance and that I need to create a user account with the same name. I did but it still doesn't work. I then tried to restore files without reassigning security clearance and I still have problems. Any ideas on how to get these files on my new hard drive. Thank you!

    Using your computer connected to the external HARD disk, try to reset the permissions and/or ownership of the entire disk to your user account - give yuurself in its own right.  You may need to add your user name as administrator on the external HARD drive.  Here are the instructions on how to do things:

    To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

    To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

    ============================================================================================================

    Here is an article on the restore procedure: http://www.vista4beginners.com/How-to-restore-files to make sure you do this right.  It's a selective restore of a full or selective backup (not a full restore from a full backup) - but since you did a full backup, it matches your process more closely than would a full restore.

    This is a GREAT article on the backup and restore processes in Vista http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2007.09.backup.aspx , but he won't go into detail about the restoration process - considering almost as easy, of course.  But it teaches you a lot about what is possible and how to do it.  But it focuses mainly on a full backup, it addresses both full and incremental backups.

    Here is an article on the advanced use of restoration (during normal restore does not work): http://www.mayankraichura.com/post/2009/08/06/Avdvanced-Restore-via-Windows-Vista-Backup-and-Restore-Center.aspx.

    I also found the following (but don't know if it of true or not):

    1. after the start of "backup and Restore Center."

    2. I chose "Advanced Restore"

    3. I was did not an administrator password... maybe because my account is an administrator account.

    4 choose "files from a backup made on a different computer.

    5. in the dialog box indicating "Select the location of the backup to restore", select "hard drive, CD or DVD...". »

    6. under the drop-down list box, select your drive/partition and continue

    7. If all the backups on your drive, it will show a list of them.

    8. in my case, he showed a backup, but in the backup location, it will show "backup location is not available."

    9. I was frustrated, but then I somehow just select this backup (Yes... even if he said that the backup location is not available " ")

    10. and you press "next".

    11 guess what... no error!

    12. a window appeared asking me if I wanted to do a full restore, or I want to select specific folders or files.

    13. I selected the folders I wanted to restore and bingo... it their restored smoothly.

    14. so that the next time see a mistake, try to continue with him... ;)

    I don't know if this will help, but it does not provide much information about the process (when it works).  I hope you find any error or discrepancy in your procedure and it will clear up and allow you to restore.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

    Hello

    Hmm in my opinion you can only seek to create a second partition on your HARD drive and then install the Win98 on that partition.
    Windows vista supports the clean boot manager and you should be able to choose between the two BONES-> Vista or Win98

    Legacy applications, you can run it on the Win98 and if you want to use Vista you can choose the option in the Boot Manager and Vista will start.
