Installed Windows 7 in the wrong place

I just installed Windows 7 on my laptop, but in the wrong place.  It's on my Recovery (C): and I have more disk space (D): available in my computer folder.   File recovery is now complete as a result.  Initially, I tried to repair an old version and must have wantonly selected file recovery as the location to install when I decided to reinstall.  Now, I have no space or disk space.  How can I remedy this?

Boot from the installation disk and try to install the new, but make sure you only choose the right partition this time.

Boot from the Windows 7 DVD
Click Install now
Accept the license agreement
When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

You will receive the following warning:

The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

(At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

  • Boot Camp can not install Windows because of the formatting?

    I have a 2012 MacBook Pro (500 GB to 8 GB memory storage) with the OS X 10.11.3. I try to install Windows 8 Pro (64-bit) using Boot Camp. When I restart my computer after creating the partition, I have two USB ins journal. They say Windows and the other says Boot EFI. When I click on the option of Windows, I am taken to a screen that says that there is no bootable disk and restart with an inserted. When I click on Boot EFI, I did get into the Windows partition and can start set up for installation, but when I get to the stage where it asks me to install Windows, none of the listed drives are able to have Windows installed. I have a list of 4 disks, all drive 0 and then partition 1,2,3,4 respectively. 4 is the one that is 46.6 GB (I created Windows to be 50 GB), so I guess it's that I need to be installed in. However, when I click on any of the partitions, this message appears: "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk is a MBR partition table. On EFI systems, Windows cannot be installed to GPT disks. Windows cannot be installed to this disk. Hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the disk controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS menu. "After talking with the Apple support (who told me it was a matter of putting in the form any and to talk to the Windows how do I reformat) and Windows support (who took the opportunity to remind me why I had stopped using them in the first place), I think I have a better idea of what it means , but I have no idea what to do about this. Anyone have an idea how I can fix?

    You have two choices.

    1. use GPT Fdisk to delete the MBR and continue boot EFI. Later, it is problematic when you install the drivers for the Apple hardware.

    2 use a USB2 flash drive and let BCA create setup of USB and partition your drive. No matter what Manual partitioning or manipulate the installer USB can cause problems.

  • FreeCell game moves the columns to the wrong place

    I checked the related topics were displayed with no luck.

    My problem is a column had moved and was in the wrong place.  Column 7 of 8 has been moved down beyond the end of column 8 and is now fully functional, to the right of the screen.  Now the right column 7 appears empty and is not recognized as a plus column.

    I tried to post on the other posts instead of starting a new post, but none of the experts seem to be looking back.

    I tried all the suggestions. Restore privious point, uninstall/reinstall, sfc/scannow, several resets etc. No luck.

    Other solutions?

    It is absolutely amazing. Than to repair a 800ko program/game it will take hours of effort to go through a reinstallation. Backig to the top of my data, reinstall my programs, desktop, shortcuts, passwords etc.

    The option 'fix' using the disc is not available for me because I have a Dell laptop which has the hidden partition "system restore." I don't think that the option is available. I'll check.

    It seems that where ever FreeCell 'will' and 'comes' of when you use the "Turn Windows Freatures power' is corrupted.

    Just an aside, is that the problem has added a "degree of difficulty" to play FreeCell, that I adapted for. I think that at this time I'll just live with it and add another element to the list of what's wrong with MicroSoft Vista.

    You use the wrong keyboard layout. Apparently, you have a UK keyboard, if you want that the UK keyboard layout. You are probably using the American provision.

  • Drop-down menus appear in the wrong place

    Some of my menus appear in the wrong place. Seems to be limited to those in the Panel on the right... Also, it seems to be related to windows 10's high resolution display scaling, because it solves the problem to initialize it to 100% (but causes many others...) I also tried to go to lightroom.exe properties to disable the high DPI scaling, but it makes no difference... Is this a bug, or is there something else I can do to fix this?

  • In Lightroom 5, choose "Merge to Panorama in Photoshop" open PS in the wrong place

    Hello, I use Lightroom version 5.7.1 on an iMac with OS X (version 10.10 [5]) and, until recently, if I chose the Photo - Edit open inside my request of Photoshop on my boot drive.  Now, although it uses by default trying to open the backup copy of Photoshop on my external backup drive, which is a clone of the hard drive of my iMac, and if I choose "merge to Panorama in Photoshop" (which I need to do often enough) it freezes and gives the following error:

    Screen Shot 2016-03-30 at 11.48.49.png

    I can see that it tries to open the cloned version of Photoshop (on iMac Anna/backup/Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS6) but I can't find any way to change this so that it can reuse the version on my boot drive.  I'm sure there must be a file somewhere that staged Lightroom to try to open Photoshop on the external hard drive, but I don't know where it could be.

    If I have already opened the version of Photoshop on my startup disk before trying to merge with Panorama, it will use that one.  If I remove the external hard drive containing the cloned version of Photoshop, I just get an error that says that the files could not be changed because Photoshop CS6 could not be launched.

    I tried to delete the file [file username]/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.Photoshop.plist, then by restarting Lightroom, but it did not help.]  I also tried to change the external editor in Lightroom preferences - preferences: I can create an additional external editor and have pointing to Photoshop on my boot drive, but this has no effect when you try to merge with Panorama and I see no way to change the settings to 'Edit in Adobe Photoshop CS6' at the top of the box as shown below :

    After posting this question I've been tracking the answer me - it seems that there is a bug in Lightroom that Adobe know since at least January 2015.  As far as I know, it has not been resolved in the latest version of Lightroom, but they wrote a plugin that works around the problem.  I have downloaded and run and it works, so I thought I would like to include the link to the page in case someone else has the same problem:

    Lightroom: "Edit in PS 2014" opens PS 2014 in the wrong place. Community customer Photoshop family

    Ignore the first suggestion about uninstalling Lightroom and Photoshop and scroll down the page until you find the official response from Jeffrey Tranberry - there is a link to download a plugin it and once you installed you will be able to specify the location of Photoshop.   With a bit of luck will be solved properly in a future version of Lightroom.

  • Stroke in the wrong place after copy/paste in Illustrator CC

    Since the passage of the CS6 at CC, I have a problem of copy/paste, work of one Illustrator document to another.

    Sometimes features are in the wrong place as you can see in the screenshot below. On the left side I just copied a picture from another file I and lines appear at the bottom right where they should be (in this case it is not possible to select the lines "out of place". Moving all about what I selected moves around the misplaced lines, but they keep the same distance. The way I found for this problem is either doing "Contour lines" or to make the illustration more bigger or smaller. Which will appear automatically the features in place. If I can undo these changes traits remain in the right place.

    This seems to happen with illustrations that have been made to the CS6, but save the original file does not help CC; the problem is occurring. It also seems to occur to the traits that have a variable width profile. Features with a uniform profile remain in place. I had this problem in Illustrator CC on Windows and Mac, with various files that I created initially in CS6. It is quite annoying because I copy and paste a large number of these illustrations, so I find myself constantly having to do "Contour lines" and then "Cancel" to remedy. What can I do to prevent this?

  • Photoshop saving files in the wrong place

    I started using Lightroom, most recently being forced to leave the opening by their lack of support and development.  I have the latest version of CC 2014 of two (5.7.1) LR and PS (2014.2.2), and the operating system is Mac OS X 10.10.2.  When I send an image to Photoshop to be edited, Photoshop saves it in the wrong place when return to LR.  Instead of returning to the same folder that the original came, he returned stepped to the top of the hierarchy and renames it as the record that she was originally (sequence, if tried repeatedly).

    For example, if I have a folder system in LR such as:

    2015

    January

    27

    < filename.cr2 > <-original file being transmitted to Photoshop

    When I use "Edit in Photoshop" on < filename.cr2 > of LR, when I save the file after modification, using the close box in the window/tab and then clicking on "Save" when the confirmation dialog box appears [edit:] Note: the file name IS correct in the [\Edit] save/Cancel dialog box, the file is incorrectly registered as < 27. psd > in Januaryrecord.  The original file remains in the original location.  for example,.

    2015

    January

    < 27. psd > <-new, edited, badly in a subfolder to modify and resave file name

    27

    < filename.cr2 > <-original file still correctly

    This prevents also from stacking, because LR doesn't add images not in the same folder.  Repeating attempts end upward with < 27-2.psd >, < 27-3.psd >, < 27-4.psd > etc., all saved a step upward path in the folder of January.  It does not matter if I select the file to change it from the record of 27 , the January file or folder 2015 , he always he did the same thing and returned to a step upward from and named, the folder in which the original file resided.

    He seems to be a problem of the PS is not a problem of LR, but I can't yet find a solution I tried each preference, which seems to be in no way affiliated with the backup or a file that controls the behavior in both programs, nothing helps.  I'm sure it's just a problem I have-D-10-T, but I can't find it yet.

    Post edited by: edit Ken Lucke added noting that filename is correct all the way up to and including the Save/Cancel dialog box during the closure

    The location to save files is your choice. Once set correctly, in the folder you select in LR, it will be always saved there.

    In LR open preferences and go to the external publishing tab and down select what you want the edited externally to be named (IIRC the default is to add "-Edit.psd" you can change it to what you want.)

    Select an image, a picture, and then click the export button. In the dialog box that appears at the top right and export to: make sure that it is set to HDD, then in the next section, "Place of export" select "same folder as the original picture. You can then select whatever other options you want to export and click the export button (you can delete this image, once this step is completed if you want).

    Now when you right click and select Edit in and choose photoshop just click Save icon or Ctrl + s or command + s and not save as. At this time you should not get everything save dialog windows. The file should then be recorded in the original folder, with the name of the file and modify (or whatever you chose as add it to the file name) and stacked with the original, if you selected in the external publishing tab.

    The SATA drivers are in the Intel Storage Manager!

  • Dependencies in vi.lib and loading of the wrong place user.lib

    Hello

    I'm having a weird problem trying to load a LabVIEW project in 2013. Whenever I open the project folder, it keeps looking for files in vi.lib and user.lib in the wrong place. Instead of search in files (x 86) C:\Project \National Instruments\LabVIEW 2013\vi.lib, he look in C:\Program Files (x 86) \National Instruments\Targets\vi.lib

    I have manually browse for each file in the directories vi.lib and user.lib and point each a return to real folders. But in the project folder itself, all the files I have loaded just said that it is still in conflict. When I try to resolve conflicts of files, they disappear for a second then come back.

    I can't make LabVIEW for functions in the directories user.lib and vi.lib normal, it keeps adding targets in the destination.

    I tried to do a recompilation of mass, and which does not at all help.

    When I load the project, select a few dozen files vi.lib and user.lib, do a save all, close the project, and then re - open, I need to reconnect every file again.  It still seems for all... \Targets\vi.lib instead of just \vi.lib.

    This isn't the case for all projects, just this one it seems.

    The files are in the right place based on the path under "loading". If she says it's in : \Waveform\WDTOps.llb\WDT number of waveform samples DBL.vi, it really is. The path on the top is right, I don't know why LabVIEW is not find anything.

    Any idea how I can get this project to stop looking for vi.lib in the folder target?

    ng1902 wrote:

    I managed to get the errors to stop copying vi.lib and user.lib files in the subfolder of targets.

    This could be dangerous and cause problems.  If it's possible after your project.

    When I saw this sort of thing in the past, it was usually because of a broken dependency I got didn't really need.  I would say through your dependencies (in project) and search for the odd elements glyphs showing errors.  Try to find out why those are dependencies and remove unused code, or links to the missing code.  Resolve all conflicts and then make a backup of all.

    In the past, it happened when I tried to copy a project as a new project, and then changes the code snatch which was unnecessary, but there was always a code in a disabled structure that could not be loaded causing a kind of problem of linkage project.
