  Hello

  Recently, my computer has not been doing any internet access and I thought to reinstall Windows 7.

  But I can't do that because I lost the disc and key product :( (shock)

  So I thought I would buy a new one, but with Windows 10.

  No, Windows 7 and Windows 10 require unique product keys and their respective installation files.

  If I decide to buy online, some say it's downloadable, how can I reinstall it without using a CD?

  Windows 10 is available as a digital download:

  Buy Windows 10 family/professional edition

  For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

  It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

  Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

• Is it possible to reinstall Windows without a disk?

  original title: reinstalling Windows without a login

  Hi all

  My brother has changed his password on his computer (Windows Vista Home Basic) and now he don't remember it. He didn't have a password reset disk.

  We tried to make a password reset disk to another computer and try to use it on his, but he failed.

  I read that there is also an administrator account on the computer in safe mode. This has been proven false on his computer, as well.

  Finally I found that if you re-install Windows then it would work. This has not been tried still for reasons given below, hense why I ask here.

  We do not have a Basic Windows installation disc, because we have not improved. It's a phone, too good.

  Is it possible to re - install Windows another way, and if so, how do you do that?

  Please keep in mind that we do NOT have the installation disc, and we can NOT connect to any.

  See you soon

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s since the Partition of recovery in case of hard drive failure or System Crash, when you are in service again.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

• Is it possible to reinstall Windows XP on the desktop of our family by using the i386 folder in my laptop XP installation?

  Hewlett-Packard Windows XP edition my family family computer from office worked very erratic recently and the resettlement of old CD provided by the reseller of the computer do not work because we have improved the system video card, motherboard and power supply. In addition, the system runs very slowly, the resolution suddenly returned to a low resolution (we cannot set to a higher resolution, regardless of how hard we try), and the sound on the PC does not work correctly. I should add that we have the copy of Windows is legitimate and has been installed by the computer gurus in a store of the local computer. I don't know how they have reinstalled Windows, but we do not have functional installation for Windows discs.

  I'm no computer expert, but it's my suspiction that malware detected by Microsoft Security Essentials on the computer during a full crawl may have done havoc on computer files and corrupt drivers and other essential records and files before being detected and deleted by the anti-virus software this last.

  While I looked on the World Wide Web for a solution to our problem, I found a few sites that said that Windows can be reinstalled utiilizing from the i386 on the computer record. I looked for the folder on the desktop of my family, but nothing helped. Several records with that name, but I couldn't find the winnt.32 files in these folders. Just out of curiosity, I searched the i386 folder on my netbook Windows 7 Home Premium and found, but it seems to relate to my previous installation of Windows XP. My question is, it is possible to reinstall Windows XP on our bureau a copy of the i386 on my netbook, if we have the Windows XP product key that came with our office?

  P.S. If the latter does not work, is it possible to borrow a disc to install Windows XP Home Edition to a friend / relative if we have the product key for Windows XP Edition family?

  Hello

  You have a product key for Windows XP Home edition retail?

  If you have a product key for Windows XP Home edition retail, you can borrow the installation of Windows XP Home edition disk, install and then try to activate it.

  If you have the OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) product key, you can contact the PC manufacturer for a specific recovery for the system disk.

  Hope the helps of information.

• How do we uninstall CS4 so I can reinstall it without all the uninstall files?

  I downloaded CS4 Premium Design (using Yosemite) last week.  I had to rebuild the computer, and then reload the software.  Several problems have emerged:

  Photoshop didn't download.

  Acrobat pro is the gel etc. When I open acrobat I get a repair error message telling me that some components need repair. Adobe PDF printer is checked. When I click on continue nothing happens and acrobat freezes.  When I cancel the same phenomenon occurs.   I have to force quit.

  I told by adobe support, that there there was no support and perhaps I should uninstall and reinstall.  Well there is no uninstall with the last download file.

  How do you uninstall the software without uninstalling files?

  See using the Adobe Creative Cloud cleaning tool to solve installation problems to clean uninstall applications.

  Hope this will help you.

• Pop up and the risks of malware without all the updates

  Hello

  I recently bought a MBP of the retina.

  When I start the MBP I visited directly a website on safari to learn how to use, "debutersurmac.com."

  Updates was not finished (I was downloading El capitan) and a pop up came up with this message (in French):

  "Your MB have been infected...".

  At the bottom right has a button to close",

  I closed safari directly and then I saw the message, had no time to screen printing...

  One moment, the site was in my story, but now is not.

  The name of the site is: //win support error / /...

  Is that what someone did already saw this pop up?

  I did not click on close, but can it be risky to the MBP without all the updates installed?

  On Mac it is possible to see if the Web site installed something?

  Thanks in advance,

  Sorry for the English, I was not talking since college.

  PS: I just started on Mac 2 hours...

  Force Quit Safari by using the command + Option + ESC keyboard shortcut then restart Safari while holding down the SHIFT key.

  After Safari re lance go in the menu bar, click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab, then click: delete all data from the Web site then leave then restart Safari.

• Satellite L350 - want to reinstall Vista without touching the second partition

  Hi all

  I want to reinstall Vista without touching the second partition that is full of data.
  I'll be able to do with this procedure? http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm#

  The confusing part is when it says in the explanation that the * entire hard drive * will be formatted (step 2) but on one of the photos, it is written that only data on C: will be erased.
  I have Satellite L350, and the hard drive recovery process is the same as on the connected tutorial before (I'm not completely obviously)

  Hi amigo

  I tested its operation, and from my experience, I can confirm that when you use the HDD recovery procedure as described in the Toshiba document all data saved on the second partition won t be deleted.

  Only if you are using recovery DVD (please create a) will be formatted the whole HARD disk.

• Is to reinstall windows and reformatting the same windows? How can I reformat windows? TQ.

  Is to reinstall windows and reformatting the same windows? How can I reformat windows? TQ.

  There are essentially two different methods to "install Windows":

  1. a clean install (which is basically all wipes) imply the shape of the disk (or partition).

  2. a repair install (which is supposed to leave all your programs and data intact) does not imply the formatting.

  Here are some useful guides:
