• After the OS from Vista to Windows 7 upgrade, lost bookmarks. Could they be somewhere in "windows.old"?

  Hello

  I upgraded my OS from Vista to Windows 7 and lost bookmarks, I had in Firefox. Back up my documents files and they are OK. Unfortunately, I don't think to back up my Firefox bookmarks.html file.

  However, I did the upgrade of the operating system from the disk and a "windows.old" folder has been created which seems to have a lot of my old files, applications, and others, but I can't find "bookmarks.html" in the firefox folder or in my user folder.

  Is there another place in windows.old where bookmarks could be, or a different file name, it may be under?

  Please help, there are a few important bookmarks that I lost and which were accumulated over several years.

  Thank you!

  Firefox has not used the file bookmarks.html for storage of bookmark since the release of Firefox 2. You need a JSON bookmark backup file or the file places.sqlite. See this:
  
  http://support.Mozilla.com/en-us/KB/recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile

  Your old profile is located here in Windows Vista and Win7:
  
  drive: \Users\Windows login user name\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\profile_name

  You may need to display 'files and hidden folders' in Win7 to be able to access the Firefox profile in windows.old files and the new installation of the OS.

  Found my answer. I need Windows 7 Ultimate upgrade to keep existing applications.

• Currently I have the two ("FreeCell" and "Spider") to 99% of victories and want to keep the TWO scores is going when I go from Vista to Windows 7.

  Original title: spider solitaire

  OK, this may sound stupid, but I play a lot of solitaire in the form of "FreeCell" and "Spider". (thousands of games scored, both were copied from XP to Vista)

  Currently, so 99% of wins, and here to keep the TWO scores will when I go from Vista to Windows 7.

  Is it possible to transfer the scores as well as two games?

  I moved/copied two games on a secondary hard drive (the two files of game of the C; \program files\microsoft games\ freecell) (& spider solitaire) including hidden files.

  I'm just worried, scores can be kept elsewhere in another folder & I'll lose them... two .mui is copied to the new folder as well as the rest of the files (in the case of assistance)

  Someone tell me if the scores will transfer more once I have switch to Win7? Or do I have to look elsewhere?

  Thank you.

  You run Easy Transfer on the Vista installation, and then restore from Windows 7.

  Easy transfer should should be on the files that contain the stats but I don't know if they will be compatible. Since they resumed their XP to Vista, I do not see why they not well with Windows 7.

  Regarding Windows Mail, what I understand, it can be done, but it is not taken in charge and there may be unforeseen problems accordingly.

• The upgrade from Vista to Windows 7: How can I make sure that I keep Microsoft Office

  A few months back I took advantage of this offer to upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 for a discounted price. After that I downloaded the upgrade file, Upgrade Advisor told me that because I'm using Vista business and I was upgrade 7, that my computer would probably be home must pass through with a 'clean install', thus wiping my hard drive.

  That's fine with me, I could just move my documents and Favorites on an external hard drive. But I'm afraid that the upgrade will be wipe my Microsoft Office programs.

  I bought this computer a few years ago. I don't even know if I bought the program with office bundled with it, or if I bought it separately (and probably the discs are somewhere in storage).

  How can I make this update without losing Microsoft Office? Is it possible to confirm if my word has come with my computer or if I installed it separately. If it came with it, and I lose it, certainly there must be a free way for me to recover. Right?

  Any other advice for someone planning on the upgrade?

  Thank you!

  You're the one who knows if you installed Office.

  Office (Word, etc.) comes for free with Windows. you have to buy.

  If Office is preinstalled, it was a test.

  A clean installation will wipe everything.

  You cannot transfer programs.

  It needs to be reinstalled from the original media.

• Windows install-"error 1325 - 'Documents' is not a valid short file name"; After upgrading from Vista to Windows 7, cannot load new software. ____

  After an upgrade from Vista to Windows 7, everything on the system seemed to work properly. up to what I tried to re - install everything deleted software or install new software.  As soon as Windows Installer starts the following error message appears: "error 1325 - 'Documents' is not a valid short file name.

  If this could have something to do with the new pads MSFT security permissions on folders (with padlock) during a upgrade as well as related hidden junctions by compared to the user by the system?

  I tried to install the update system of Lenovo and MSFT Windows Installer Clean Up clean in the hope that the software would help alleviate my problems. See below the link on advice from MSFT on the same error.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/%2Fkb%2F328162

  Unfortunately, I cannot even load the previously recommended THAT MSFT software to solve this error.  I also tried to install the software as 'Run as Administrator' and in 'Safe Mode '.  Even if I could not load the software recommended to MSFT, I was able to install iTunes to Apple through Apple Software Update, I guess, that they do not use Windows Installer.

  With the new structure of junction there is several files or links to the same folder across file system, if it is a folder authorization number which specific files/links are I need to remove restrictions?

  Any help would be appreciated, if not I'll have to do a clean install and individually reinstall each piece of software... Thank you.

  I think I found the solution for this point, because I have just encountered the same problem in our environment and here's what I did to solve it:

  -Create a higher level permissions at the root of the folder redirection (for example \\servername\mydocredirfolder): grant the Group authenticated users the following permissions and apply it to "this folder only" ALLOW: list folders/read data, reading, reading attributes, read extended attributes, create files / add data

  I think the MSI is trying to read the free space on the disk on the server, but it cannot because it tries to access the folder where your my documents redirection is sitting.

  Good luck!

  After the upgrade yesterday from Vista to Windows 7, now my Cisco VPN does not work and I get an error message titled: grounds 440 driver fault.  Any ideas to fix this?

  This was the solution!  The works of vpn as $ 1 million now.  I followed the instructions above to enter the uninstall program and selecting the repair option.  I rebooted the machine, then used the troubleshooting on vpn software compatibility option.  Selected Windows windows xp (service pack 2) as the correct software and cisco vpn client started right up.

  Thanks, Nick!

• I've upgraded from vista to windows 7 and it's embarrassing. To reinstall internet help?

  I do not have a CD of windows 7 - having trouble getting all the updates that are installed.  Luther

  Hello, Luther,.

  If you do not have the DVD, how move you from Vista to Windows 7? And what is Windows 7 or Windows 7 with Service Pack 1?

  Doing a clean install is always going to be better. One way to do it is to download the ISO of Windows 7, SP1 and burn the DVD from that. That being said, you will still need to download all updates / upgrades that have been issued since SP1 was released. Internet Explorer 10 is an example of such upgrade. Although tedious, I recommend that you take this approach - which will also give you the DVD to reinstall Windows if you need.

  All this assumes that you have a valid COA and the product key for Windows 7. Finally, one last question for you: what version of Windows 7 you want, and you need the version 32 or 64 Bit?

  If you could answer these questions, I can help you further. Please post your answers here.

  Kind regards
