The upgrade to Windows 7 or later will preserve my personal files, applications, and settings?

Yes, the upgrade to Windows 7 or a later version will preserve your personal files (documents, music, pictures, videos, downloads, Favorites, contacts, etc., applications (IE.) Microsoft Office, Adobe applications etc), games and settings (ie. passwords, dictionary, the application settings).

However, it is a good practice to back up most important data before the upgrade.

  • After application of update Windows Vista SP2, FSX will not start

    FSX is not started after that I applied Windows VISTA Sp2. When the process is considered to be a task manager, FSX.exe seems to CPU to make loops. Are there not the method to solve something?

    Hi BuyIntel,

    Thanks for posting on the Forum of answers.

    I suggest to backup your saved games and reinstall the program.
    Something in the Service Pack may have corrupted some aspects of FSX, this should solve it.

    I suggest also to visit your video card manufacturers website to download the latest drivers and re-installation of the unit.

    I hope this helps.

  • d011wm flow 11: best way to update windows 10? This disc is the best way to start froom

    After minor driver installation would not work. Intel, Realtek, recovery manager has been altered and would not work.

    chizilla313

    Hello;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    Some people have worked a long and complicated way to make the initial win 10 improvement by using additional storage media to contain the update files.  The existing 32 GB SSD is simply too small to hold the existing operating system and the Win10 update files.

    But then they discovered that they could not do the cumulative updates (like the recent anniversary update) because their methof of point to other storage media has not worked!

    Sorry for the bad news, but there is really no good way to update the series flow 11.

    You are better off leaving the original OS.

    When I first installed the new 5.1 icloud, OUTLOOK 2016 worked well. Updated windows 10 and know icloud will not work. ICloud show that it works. Have reinstalled icloud a lot of time and know that the add-in does not show up in OUTLOOK.  Help

    I was pulling my hair re the incompatibility of iCloud and Outlook of Office 365 2016.  I finally got things to work on three of my computers - which are on the latest version of Windows 10.

    The steps that worked for me:

    (1) uninstall the plugin iCloud (what version you have); the uninstall may fail but if so don't worry as step 3 below overlays some iCloud plugin version you have installed

    (2) open the Control Panel, uninstall, change/repair Office 365; Select fast repair

    (3) reinstall iCloud plugin (version 5.1), then restart the system by following the instructions

    (4) after the reboot, plug in iCloud application Apple ID and password; Make sure that you enter your apple with the suffix icloud.com ID (e.g., [email protected])

    (5) check the iCloud options to your will (e.g., photo synch, synchronization of bookmarks, sync mail/calendar, etc.)

    (6) check apply it, leave the work plugin iCloud for a minute, when he finishes, check the closing

    (7) open Outlook 2016 and check your calendar or contacts or anything that you indicated in step 5, that you want to synchronize with iCloud.com

    I hope it works for you!

    Windows 7 update does not install updates.  It is said there are 35 updates installed.  The Update window remains at 0% for hours.  I tried to FixIt - no result.  I checked, that is to say, that everything is as it should be.  This computer is a system that adjusts only once a month.  Should I do a clean boot?  I really don't want to reinstall Windows 7.  Any help would be appreciated.

    You receive errors related to updates?

    1. Open Windows Update by clicking the Start button, all programs and then click Windows Update.

    I ordered the Dell XP disc and did the re-install. It works fine now. The Dell technical support had me do some updates on the web as well. I have not had problems since. What happened with the automatic updates completely wiped out my operating system. At least I don't have to buy a new computer.

    If nothing else works, try reinstalling your operating system. It worked for me.

    Laptop HP Pavilion g6 windows 8

    The short "Workaround" to try:

    Go to your Control Panel > display icon > Device Manager >

    Find, right click and "Uninstall", your Audio driver(s).

    Do not delete NOT the driver, just right click and 'uninstall '.

    • Do not restart your computer (yet).

    Next:

    • In Control Panel > Windows Update > change settings > disable the recommended updates... You can add them later if / when you get the 'Important' updates to work.
    • You can click to "Check for Updates" again once, or simply go back to your main "Windows Updates" window and now click on the 'Install' button (on the lower right corner of this window).

    • Wait... wait some more... When the updates are loaded, you will be told that you must restart the computer.
    • Reboot / restart the computer when the computer tells you it's time...
    • When the system restarts, these Audio drivers to reinstall it after that updates install and just as the system finished its reboot sequence.
