Or a Usb key with a hardware write-protection-switch.

in Window 7 Ultimate. When I want to create a file or paste a file copied to a USB port or flash memory, windows cannot perform this action and the message: the disk is write protected.but when I used the same USB Win XP, disc is OK and not write-protected.
I tried this question on several USB key, but the result was the same.
anydody can help me?Hi Saleh2506,
You can try and remove the disc, remove the write protection (by reversing a tab on the disk), and then try again.
If you do not have the valve on the USB, try the following steps to resolve the problem:
1. Click Start , type regedit.exe and press ENTER.
2. navigate to the following location:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrrentControlSet\Control
3. control with the right mouse button and select new and key.
4. call it as StorageDevicePolicies.
5. click on StorageDevicePolicies and on the right pan right click and select new > DWORD and name it as WriteProtect.
6 double-click it and set its value to 0.
This will disable the write protection on USB/flash drives.
Restart your computer and check to see if that fixes the problem.
Important The above section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

Full Auto (copy) with the option to write another s.
Hello
I have two fields text A, B
When I write "1" in the A I want to copy B (now is calculate-> value is "whatever" field of b. primitive, but it works.)
That's the default. Now I need an option to write '2' in B if necessary. For now he automatically change me to "1".
Is this a javaCript for that?
Thanks for the replies
Delete the code of calculation for field B and enter the Validation code from: field
If (event.value) this.getField("B").value = event.value;
This will cause B so that the value of A (when is not empty), but still allow you to change B independently.

There might be a problem with the configuration of your DOMAIN NAME SERVER
Last week one, I noticed some problems with my internet connection. I have a BSNL broadband connection. I am connected to the internet, and after some time all of a sudden, I'm not able to connect. My modem lights are all on and on my laptop, I see the symbol of 2 computers with a note on it, which means that I'm connected. But still the pages not displayed. When I run Network Diagnostics (I Windown Vista) I get the error message saying: "there could be a problem with the configuration of your DOMAIN NAME server. I turned off the computer and the modem and switch it on after a long time... He would return but loses the connection with the same error message again. What can I do? I tried to reset the modem, also tried the system restore. What can I do? Please help me. I have laptop Dell Insipiron with Windows Vista and I connect wireless.
We do not know how your system should be set up - including the DNS configuration and settings. I recommend you contact your ISP's technical support group and get help from them in the configuration of your computer (and test lines and modem - the problem could be the modem and not on the computer or it could even be the service provider itself). It can be something as simple as a typo or a box checked or not checked - I do not know because I do not know their settings (different for each access provider). Give them a call. I do so often when I have connection problems, and they are almost always useful, or schedule a service call if they cannot help. I think it's your best chance to solve this problem.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

DISABLE "there is already a file with the same name to this place.
Window 7. 64 bit. How do you turn OFF DISABLE, CANCEL, DELETE, STOP the pop-up 'MOVE the FILE'?
As a user since the days of DOS command lines and having had a routine all the way through to XP, this new window is one of the most annoying pop ups for an experienced user. If it isn't a swith toggle check box or an other power selection for this message, there must be. And if there is, you did it quite hard to find.
The dialog box that appears in Windows 7 that starts with "there is already a file with the same name to this place. It lists then the three choices - "Copy and replace", "Do not copy" and "copy, but keep both files.
I managed several libraries of forms which oblige me to replace the files throughout my day. I make a copy of the file I replace first of all, for archival purposes and this pop-up box is, well, it's boring. There must be a way to disable.
This box comes up to move files and to copy the files.
Any help in these turn off would be appreciated.
See you soon.

Can I recover my old version of windows on the computer and use it on my old laptop?
Original title: windows 8.
Last year, I bought a new desktop computer Acer with windows 8 and installed my windows professional 8.1 on it!
My question is! can I recover my old version of windows on the computer and use it on my old laptop because it was purchased with this PC AND how I to get it back?
I am braking the rules by doing this? the original key was included with the purchase of my new Acer and I should be able to pick it up and install it on another device?
If I can't, I'll have to buy a new one to upgrade my old windows laptop 7. I'm trying to save money! That's why I ask this question.
Roger
No, you cannot transfer the original license that is pre-installed on your Acer, it relates to it because it is an OEM license.
The OEM of Windows 8 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:
-OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft
-OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on
-OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard
-OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system
What is OEM software? :

I was not able to open my my Adobe Illustrator application after update. He says there are a few problems with the preference but after following the instructions, Illustrator still does not work and it keeps giving the samei question. Help, please.
I think you are talking after upgrade to CC 2015 you're not able to launch I. Also, I believe you speak for read only matter of preference.
After following the instructions please do not launch Illustrator and check your file preference if the permissions have been set correctly. A good way would be to get inside the preferences folder and then try to create a file manually. If it succeeds, please write to [email protected]
A few external links to help you set permissions:
