  How can I recover the files and programs before a system restore?  my document folders are all empty and my programs will not open!

  I know they are there and hidden somewhere, but this restoration took my settings of the computer to 2004! We lost all our data, our software that we use to operate our company at home, our quickbooks that has all our financial data, family photos, videos, Outlook will work not so no e-mail, all turned in time and 6 years ' worth of documents have disappeared.

  What happeneded was that I was trying to upgrade to quickbooks software when I got an error, I cancelled out of the facility, then restarted and that's when I got an error hal.dll something? I thought about a system restore would allow me to go back in time to just before when the error occurred, but he basically took my computer back to factory settings, so all the programs that I installed and paid hundreds of dollars for the past six years has disappeared, Microsoft Office and very expensive construction estimating software that we wil have to pay once AGAIN for If I can't get this program working properly.

  I am a fool! I can't believe what's happening.

  Someone at - it instructions on how I can retrieve either the programs and data that I need specifically or how to go and seek shade from the files I read online on and restore my computer for about 12 hours ago?

  Thank you all!

  Looks like you did a system rather than a system restore recovery.  If you have inserted a disc supplied with your machine and booted from it, you probably erased the disc and installed the original operating system provided with your computer.  Usually, a step in this recovery is to do a full format or quick of your drive.  If you did a full format, your data is permanently lost.  With a quick format, your data may still be there, somewhere but inaccessible by normal means.  Applications must generally be installed, in order to recover the files probably will not help unless you have the original installation media.  Your other data files (images, videos, financial data) may be salvageable, but at this point, it would be advisable to take your computer or your disk to a business/professional who is experienced with data disc recovery.  It will be cheap and there is no guarantee.

  Impatient, remember investigate you a backup strategy for your computer and critical data.  Hard drives can go wrong with little or no warning.

  I recently bought a new camera from Sony a7 - ii.  the first time I tried to import raw images taken with it (with a. Suffix ARW) the program says "Preview not available for this file" and then "files are not recognized by the raw format support in Lightroom" I have the most updated version, I think as 5.7.  What should I do to get these files imported as raw files?

  Hi Bobsirkus,

  The camera you have is compatible with the latest version of Lightroom, which is Lightroom 6/CC.

  Please see the list of the camera supported by Lightroom: supported by Adobe Camera Raw devices

  You can use the DNG Converter, converts images and then import them into DNG in Lightroom.

  FWIW... VIDEO_TS is a standard folder which is present on all

  No.... you can not re - edit a completed video DVD.

  In addition the project MSDVD file, you all the original

• FrameMaker 10, Win 7 64 bit - can't print to pdf and need benchmarks

  How can I print to PDF with FrameMaker 10 on Windows 7 64 - bit OS. I need benchmarks. I can save as a PDF, but the registration mark not displayed. When I print to PDF, no file is generated. When I print to a file ps with distilling and registration of marks on it, recording brands still do not appear.

  Adobe has this problem before? I think that their desktop publishing tool would be able to print to PDF and print to PDF with check marks! Otherwise, how a document can get print production?

  seems that you have not installed the current patches.

  Please check this with the Help menu > about FrameMaker.

  The current Version is 10.0.2

  And if you ' r runnung 10.0.0 installing current hotfixes.

  I think that this problem has been resolved in 10.0.1.

• I installed Win 7, sis discovered downloaded illegally, ran XP and now how do I get rid of Win 7? Help, please! VERY IMPORTANT PLEASE AND THANK YOU!

  Okay, so I came one day at home to find Win 7 Ult on my computer. It turns out that my sister downloaded illegally, which I had no idea until it crashed my computer. He stopped working out of a reboot, I therefore had no choice but to run my backup version of Windows XP Professional. I wanted to keep the files of windows 7, I had some important docs ther, so I installed Windows XP under the C:\WINDOWS.old file and it works from there, and win 7 is in the C:\Windows folder. I have only one disk-37, 2 Go C, so I need all the space I can get. I don't know much about computers, but how do I get rid of Win 7 files which absorb almost 10 GB on my hard drive with Win XP works well? Win XP is activated and genuine. I heard someone say "Format the C drive", but then I read about it online and found that it could make my computer unusable! I don't know how to fix it! Please help me, it's very important that I have solve this problem quickly, I am sinking money in flash drives and CDs. help, please and thank you!

  In addition, my system is a Dell GX280 series, pentium 4 with 512 MB of RAM, or 502 a 37.2 GB C drive. It has been renovated and came pre-installed with Windows XP.

  The BIOS and Windows are not the same, you cannot make permanent changes to the BIOS settings only.

  When you format your hard drive it will wipe all information off of it (it's your personal files, Windows, everything, etc.), but your computer still won't turn.  Your can configure which devices to start the system turn off the first, so when we need to start installing Windows from a CD, you need to configure the BIOS first boot device to be the CD-ROM drive (follow thesteps to clean install xp).  You must ensure that your CD of Windows XP is in the CDROM drive ready to begin the clean install, and there should be a point when your system say "press any key to boot from the CD-ROM...".

  You can also follow the procedure here a clean installation of Windows XP: http://www.theeldergeek.com/clean_installation_of_windows_xp.htm

  Hello

  Check if you are able to format drive C in a clean boot state.

  From your computer by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine if a background program is interfering with your game or program. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot".
