  Two points:

  1. If you want to delete some installed programs, do not make
  deletion of the folder they are in. That doesn't remove them only partially and
  can cause problems. Remove programs by in control
  Configuration/program Panel and features.

  2. a drive of 74 GB is a tiny disk these days. There are a number of
  things you can do to save space, but they are all basically
  temporary and you will soon find yourself in the same situation.
  The only real solution is to buy and install a larger capacity drive.
  Fortunately, they are very cheap these days; You can buy a 500GB
  drive for about US $65.

• The new XP installation error. The signature for the family Windows XP Setup is not valid. The error code is fffffc0d

  I'm doing a fresh install of Windows XP Edition family on a new hard drive.  I get the same error message indicating that the product catalog can not be installed. I reformatted and retryed with the same result. I tried a different HARD disk, but got the same trouble. I also tried installing XP Pro after a reformat and got the same error. The first error window says "the signature for the family Windows XP Setup is not valid. The error code is fffffc0d", and the second says" error: the system cannot find message for message number 0xfffffc0d text in the file for syssetup.dll fatal error messages: Setup failed to install the product catalogs. " Any directive or ideas would be greatly appreciated. THX

  Problem installing Windows 8

  Hello

  Before starting the installation, you run these controls?

  Check if the manufacturer of your computer/laptop has Windows 8/8.1 drivers available for your model.

  If this is not available, Windows 8/8.1 not install and work properly for you.

  There is a lot of information in this first link from Microsoft:

• HP link Setup requires an account on the remote computer, how do you do that?

  HP link Setup requires an account on the remote computer, how do you do that? Someone please help! Thank you.

  I understand that you need to know how to set up a user name and password on the remote PC to HP LinkUP.

  This document explains how to use the program.  Looking at the screenshots included, looks like it's just using the user account that is within Windows on the system.  If the local account on the Windows (remote system) system user does not have a password, then HP Link UP may not work for security reasons.  Some remote access programs (even on a LAN) have access problems with empty passwords on the remote system.

  This document has a video on the program if you want to examine.

  Let me know what happens.

• When I installed 10 windows on my mac, I accidentally deleted the MacOS Partition. I made a new D: drive partition in Windows 10, but when I go to the restoration of the internet and try reinstalling Mac, it says that the disk is locked. How to unlock thi

  So basically, I downloaded the ISO of Windows 10 file and installed using boot camp. During installation, I accidentally formatted the Mac OS partition and replaced with the windows one. Now, I'm trying to reinstall Mac OS using the internet retrieval feature. I partitioned a new D: drive named OSX, and there is no data on the disk. I then click on reinstall Mac OS. I try to select the disc of OSX I partitioned, but it says that the disk is locked. Anyone know how to unlock the drive or should I do something else?

  Thank you very much

  CJ

  I think one of the problems might be that my Windows partition has replaced the C: drive where was the OSX partition. I tried to move the Windows operating system on a drive b or e :), but it won't let me. Let me know if this could be a problem too.

• I need to change the folder where download windows updates, I know there must be a way to do this.

  Could someone help me on this issue.

  I need to change the folder where download windows updates, I know there must be a way to do this.

  Updates Windows installation location cannot be changed. Windows updates tend to fix and replace the old files of the system, so it would normally replace a file in the System32 folder.

• Default folders: How can I change my default settings so that Windows Explorer, downloads, etc., all open to the folder I chose instead of "libraries.

  How can I change my default settings so that Windows Explorer, downloads, etc., all open to the folder I chose instead of "libraries.

  Here is an article on how to change this folder opens when you click on an icon in Windows Explorer:http://www.watchingthenet.com/how-to-change-windows-explorer-icon-to-open-a-diffierent-folder-in-windows-xp-and-vista.html.  I think this will do the trick. Otherwise, maybe the following can help (but I think that's the answer you're looking for).

  Here's how to change the default template for a folder:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/70819-windows-explorer-folder-view-settings.html.  Default behavior is to select the model based on the first type of file placed in the folder (you must choose something).  Vista sets thefolder type template according to what are the types of files in the window and the settings display window Explorer. This will show you how to resetthe Windows Explorer folder view settings, disable Automatic folder Type discovery and increase theview of the folder cache to have Vista don't forget display settings, model of file type, size, or position of a specific window for when it was still closed to the location of specific path.  Keep in mind that it works, just a generic and holistic - it will not work for individual folders by folder.  That cannot be done in Vista.  But you can create shortcuts to the folders that you want and add to the desktop or right-click

  It does not work with the Sub record under, Open with,open in a new tab (Internet Explorer), etc... dialog windows of type through the goodFile menu bar item. These don't seem to be able to have their size or their position to recall. For the latter, you can use the free programhttp://autosizer.en.softonic.com/to resize them.

  Here is another article on how to modify the columns in Windows Explorer and sort in Vista:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/108665-column-customize.html.  This will show you how Add, Remove, move, change the widthand change the sort order of the columns in Windows Explorer in the way that you want.

  Here is another article on how to change the display of the default folders in Vista (but she argues, it is not a perfect solution and can revert to the previous behavior is not as good as the two prior links provided:http://news.cnet.com/8301-13880_3-10019957-68.html.)

  I hope this helps in your situation.

  When I try to rename a folder in Windows 7 I get this error message: "the action cannot be completed because the folder or file is open in another program. Close the folder and try again. "Can anyone help?

  I gave up and solved the problem by buying a third party software to use as a directory, Directory Opus.  It is much more functional than the Microsoft Directory and I have never problem renaming of files.  I am just amazed that so many people have this problem and Microsoft has not fixed.
