Is Windows XP, a Version of Windows o/s?

Hello Microsoft,

Recently, somewhere and some speak of ""Windows XP is a system of computers operating staff interrupted . " "

So around this discussion, I have some problems,

1. is Windows XP, a version of Windows o/s? Or another product?

2. is the relationship between Windows XP and Windows Vista are the different versions of Windows operating systems? Or are they two different products without any relationship?

3. I know Windows XP is an operating system for personal computers, and its status is the em now. So we can say that Windows XP is an operating system of microcomputer abandoned?

4. I know that for AMD64 processor, there was a beta version called Windows XP 64-bit Edition for 64-bit Extended System, later in versions RC, it was changed to Edition of Windows XP Professional x 64. I wonder the exactly meaning of x 64. Because Windows XP Professional x 64 was released in March 2005, one year before Intel named their processors with EM64T enabled as Intel 64 processors, so the x 64 is to the 64-bit Extended System?

For all four questions above, I am badly need answers! Million thanks in advance.

Best regards

Hello Microsoft,

It's not Microsoft that you're talking here; This is a peer support
Forum. We're just all users of this version of Windows here, help
the other if and when we can. We are not Microsoft employees (to not)
even those of us with 'Microsoft MVP"behind our names; It's a
Honorary title for having provided useful advice) except
for an occasional Microsoft contractor or an employee.

Recently, somewhere and some speak "/ Windows XP is a system of computer operating staff abandoned .".

"Abandoned" is perhaps too strong a Word. Microsoft is no longer
supports, but that does not mean it is no longer usable.

So around this discussion, I have some problems,

1. is Windows XP, a version of Windows o/s? Or another product?

There is really no such thing as "Windows o/s. Yes, Windows is a
operating system, but its name is not 'Windows o/s "; It's just 'Windows '.

And 'Windows' is not really the name of any individual operation
System; It is a family of operating systems. It's not like 'Smith '.
being the name of a specific person, but rather the name of a
family of.

If Windows XP is a member of a family of operating systems called
"Windows". Other members of the family are Windows 1, 2 Windows,
Windows 3, Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows
Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10, which is the
current version.

2. is the relationship between Windows XP and Windows Vista are the different versions of Windows operating systems?

Yes. Windows XP is a version of Windows that is five generations old.
Windows Vista is a four generation old version. If you plan to
upgrade to Windows Vista, I do not recommend. Go to the current
version 10 of Windows, not such an old version.

3. I know Windows XP is an operating system for personal computers, and its status is the em now. Can say us that / Windows XP is an operating system of microcomputer abandoned? /

As I said above, you pouvez use the word 'abandoned', but it
wouldn't be my choice.

4. I know for AMD64 processor, there was a beta version called/Windows XP 64 - bit Edition for 64-bit Extended system, later in the RC versions, she was replaced by / / Windows XP Professional x 64 edition. I wonder what exactly a / x 64. Because Windows XP Professional x 64 was released in March 2005, one year before Intel named their processors with EM64T enabled as Intel 64 processors, so is the / x 64 / pointing to the extended 64 - bit system? /

Yes, the '64' refers to her being as a 64-bit architecture. It can run on a
64-bit processor (that most new computers these days), but not on a
CPU 32-bit.

  • How to configure the desktop or the taskbar icon/link to Firefox so 42 or more recent version of Firefox always opens in a 'new private window'?

    I use Linux on my Acer laptop. I want to use Mozilla Firefox version 42.0 or more recent in the 'new private window Mode"always. When I click on the Firefox icon on my desktop or the taskbar, I want Firefox to open in 'New private window' always; no exception. When I click on the tab button or a link, all new pages should always open 'Private window' mode. In addition, I want to know that I am in a private window with privacy mask showing. Your help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you, Amos.

    Hi Amos, assuming you want to get more protection, monitoring, there are a few options:

    • You can customize your firefox shortcut on the desktop or the taskbar to open firefox directly in private browsing mode: right-click the shortcut "mozilla firefox", go to properties, and at the end of the target line that should hold them the way to the firefox program folder add " -private"
    • You can enable protection followed not only during private browsing, but in normal windows as hollow a 'hidden' preference: enter on: config in the address bar of firefox (confirmed the message information where it appears) and search for the preference named privacy.trackingprotection.enabled. Double-click it and change its value to true.
    • You can set firefox don't remember history in the menu > options > sign confidentiality in order to always run in private browsing mode. However you will not be able to open all normal windows or record the history and passwords if you have defined this mode: confidentiality, and-not-track browsing history settings

    10PC of Windows; latest version of iTunes

    When syncing with an iPhone replacement 6s (because of an iPhone battery defective 6s), I get the message that they have 12 songs that have not been synchronized because they cannot be found.

    Contacted Apple cat and they claimed to have reset the All for you, and even after that I am unable to download purchased albums.

    Calls the number of service provided by the representative of cat and her busy and shuts down after 2 or 3 seconds.

    I don't use I cloud... and when I go on the account/bought/All, all the above albums are listed as purchased, but selection of an album shows that the 'X' in the upper left corner.

    The opening of the album songs are listed with an option for 'Buy' or the game, but no download option

    No cloud icon, probably because that I do not use iCloud.

    Seems to me...

    1. you owe me the music I paid for

    2. This should not be difficult, or should I say impossible.

    3. maybe I should look for another way to buy my music.

  • After the awakening of the mode standby, Thunderbird crashes if the start menu of windows 10 is open RESOLVED in version 38.3.0

    If I have Thunderbird up and then I put windows in sleep mode, when I come back once again, the start menu in Windows 10 appears automatically (can someone tell me how to stop this?). If I click anywhere on the screen menu start disappears and everything works fine, but if I forget to do it and for example, double-click on an email to open it, Thunderbird and then freezes. If I close Thunderbird and re-open he, she, then it brings up the email that I had clicked on, so he must have tried to open it while it was frozen.
    This isn't a big problem, just annoying bloom. Don't know if it's a problem of Windows 10 or Thunderbird. If someone can tell me how to stop start menu from popping up automatically, it wouldn't solve the problem, but it would be at least!

    Version 38.3.0 is now available. Resolve the problem?

  • Running Windows 7, the new version of Thunderbird crashes my whole system about 90 seconds after its launch.

    The system hangs. Nothing does, do not move the mouse. CTRL + Alt + Delete does nothing. Only way to proceed is to shut down the computer and restart. I use Thunderbird for years with no problems, until the most recent upgrade.
    I tried to restart and launch other programs, but Thunderbird leads to the same result. I also tried to launch Thunderbird, open the address book window and close the window of mail electronic mail. It always breaks my computer after about 90 seconds.

    OK, this accident probably won't help us a lot. I had once more. Basically, it's a deliberate attempt to block Thunderbird when a setback occurs. Unfortunately, while we stopped crashes, no one has identified a single cause that we can hang our hats.

    Now if overwrite Windows is something very different and implies something that has access to the kernel of the operating system level. It's drivers and anti virus programs basically.

  • Is the current version of Firefox Compatible with Windows 10

    Windows 10 due for release July 29, Firefox will be compatible

    If all goes well, there will be no problem. Some people are already using Firefox with Windows 10 pre versions.

    It should be a 64 bit version of Firefox for Windows available later this year, but until then the standard 32-bit for Windows Firefox is what should be used.

  • How to revert to the previous version. Last update makes the new windows appear less of a complete new window should appear.

    I have my system tell me when a new update is available. Happened today. I downloaded the latest update. My Firefox now sits at 38.0.1.

    I use no legs. I want a new separate window for all that I opened. Since the upgrade this morning... when I open a new window, it is fine. But when I click on something in that window when a new opens up and it doesn't seem to be an entirely new window. There is no tool bar and it doesn't seem to be a way to have displayed toolbars. So I have no control over this new window except to reduce to a minimum or nearby. That's all. It does not appear as a tab either.

    It sucks! This was?

    How to return to the previous version before upgrading this morning? Otherwise I'll have to find another application to use other than Firefox, because I don't like it at all.

    Thank you

    Another solution is to modify some hidden settings related to windows dialog style. Should not you make changes to the way you use Firefox, but sometimes you need to enlarge some small pop-up windows that have been sized for a window with no toolbar displayed.

    Here are the steps:

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste feat and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) for each preference that begins with dom.disable_window_open_feature. , if it is not 'true', double-click it to true.

    You may find that you prefer this anyway, given that sites can band is more these pop-up windows features.

  • Where can I download the version of Firefox 64 b for Windows 7?

    Missing at Mozilla.org is their old "Downloads" section, where the different versions of Firefox are available for their operating system.

    I'm looking for a browser Firefox 64 b that is compatible with Windows 64 b. operating systems is there such a version? DRM for your help.

    For Linux, 64-bit was necessary as otherwise the user will have to install the required 32-bit libraries, he built themselves or use a package of 64-bit of the third of their Linux distro.

    There was also a lot of practice with the versions of Linux 64 - bit for some time on channel every night before the release of Firefox 4.0 even has emerged and they have mainly been used to catch the break since it is possible to break the 64-bit without affecting the 32-bit time.

    For Mac, it had and by supporting 64-bit from Firefox 4.0, this is one of the reasons for the abandonment of PPC support.

    Also when there is Firefox Win64 versions one will need Windows 7, 8.x or newer as servers, Vista, and XP 64-bit only is not supported.

  • IOS version signing of previous window?

    Hello, so I have a question, based on past times, how many days is Apple signing the previous iOS version after an update? I am away from home and I don't have access to my PC until 23 July at about 20:00. I updated yesterday to 9.3.3 my iPhone SE and I really want to go back to 9.3.2. My question is simple, do you think at the time that that I'll be back will be he always signed? Thank you very much!
