is there a way to restore a computer on which windows is it came with, if you go to another?

If I have windows 7 starter edition on my laptop and a copy of windows Ultimate edition that I do not want to install. is there a way to roll back the windows Starter 7 if I don't like it?

New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling.

This is how the recovery partition is available for the most popular brands

For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

I suggest before doing an upgrade Express of Windows 7 Ultimate, backup of your installation of Windows 7 Starter:

  • Is there a way to restore a SINGLE FILE in a folder deleted from the Recycle Bin?

    Suppose that you remove all the contents of a folder that contains the files and subfolders. If you open the Recycle Bin, you can see a list of deleted files and subfolders, but there is no way to see the files in the subfolders. So, if you want to restore ONLY a single file in a subfolder of the deleted, it seems there is no way to do it. You can only restore the entire sub.folder, which is not necessarily what you want, especially if you filled out the application parent with other files and subfolders after the deletion.

    Is there a way to restore a SINGLE FILE in a folder deleted from the Recycle Bin?

    Another method would be to drag the folder to the Recycle Bin on your desktop. Open it and recover the files required - re - delete the folder.

    @ Palcouk... you can actually retrieve files deleted, even when they are home to recycle the locker to restore a previous version of the folder parent; These come available restore points so not always guaranteed, but he made the most of the time if action is taken quickly enough. :) Ric

    Hello

    Once removed the HDD data can't be recovered. However, you can use your favorite search engine to browse third-party data recovery software and use this software to recover data.

    Note: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  • Is there a way to increase the text size in Windows 8 applications?

    Is there a way to increase the text size in Windows 8 applications?

    I find the way to text size too small in most news reader applications.  Looks like you should be able to increase or decrease the text size the same thing you do in a browser using CTRL + or CTRL-, or your mouse wheel.

    You can increase the size of the text on the desktop, but it doesn't have any effect on the subway, or whatever you call it today.

    Probably, there should be a setting to increase the size of the text under settings of PC!

    IMO, I would probably find a lot of people out there wouldn't buy a W8 Tablet since the text is to small to read!  This has fixed as soon as POSSIBLE!

    Edit: I noticed that a lot of Apps is updated to help with this problem.  Unfortunately not on the main screen of App, if you select an item to read the improvement will become visible or selectable.

    Hello

    On the start screen simply type the word "police" and select the filter settings on the right.  You should see an option 'Make text and other items more or less '.  Click on that and adjust the text or at the desired size.

    These instructions don't change the DPI of the screen ratio when it is in the classic user of Windows interface. The new interface Windows username however does not change when this setting is changed (which, in itself, is rather unfortunate).

    The only way to change the font size of Windows apps Store is as follows:

    1. click on the Start button to get the new user of Windows interface

    2 start typing 'police' (without the quotes)

    3. click on "settings".

    4. click on "enlarge everything on your screen; This opens the settings of PC (which is different from the classic Configuration screen)

    5. set "Enlarge everything on your screen" on it.

    Personally, I still find it too small for a lot of apps, but it's a small improvement on the default settings.

  • Is there a way to restore the system to factory setting

    Original title: Reinstalling windows

    I would like to restore or reinstall the system on my computer because my computer appears to be infected with the virus and there are a lot of problem with the system as impossible to install net framework. I have never create any point before restoration, and the recovery of the manufacturing company (Acer) tool does not work for reasons unknown. I would like to know if there is a way to restore the system to factory setting. And also, if I have the windows 7 key product that comes with this computer (I think that its probably an OEM product key), what I have to buy a new key of product if I reinstall windows 7 on this computer?

    Thank you for your reply,

    However, I tried with the Acer eRecovery Management and there are two problems:

    • I open Acer eRecovery than Management with System Manager. When I click on restore or create Factory default disc, it says please wait and there is an infinite loading.
    • Also, when I use Alt + F10 to open, it says please complete operating system configuration process.

    Scores of recovery and/or access to them can get damaged.

    As the partition recovery is photographed on the hard drive by Acer in the manufacture of your machine, we have nothing to do with changing/fixing this recovery process once there are problems with it.

    As you have a preinstalled OEM license (Acer, Dell, HP, etc.), contact the manufacturer of your computer to order recovery media that they need to provide for a fee.

    Or you can also borrow the same exact retail edition DVD of Windows 7 and use your product key to reinstall.

    But Acer does not normally keep recovery disks for you to buy for older operating systems, so it comes down to borrow the exact same edition of Windows 7 DVD to a friend, etc. and by using the product key on the COA sticker on your machine.

  • Is there a way to check the product key on Windows 7

    Ladies and gentlemen

    Tablet of my wife is pre-installed with Win 7 and twice in recent years I needed to reinstall. The tablet with Windows 7 pre-installed and included the disc. I now find I need reintall again as complaints about the machine being slow emanate from the kitchen. While I wrote down the product key for the program that I find now that I have is to not store this piece of paper very solidly and can no longer find it. This raises a few questions. One option is to download the ISO file and install. I did, but it asks for the key of product, which was not really surprising. I have a desktop computer, but is there a way to get the product key without doing a full installation of Windows 7 on the desktop? I'm a bit lazy and do not want to save the office first, if it is not necessary.

    Thanks for your advice.
