Music Flder removed in Vista Home Basic. Need to access shadow copies...
Hello. Recently, I deleted one of my music files in my user folder, and it went into deletion permanent, even without pressing SHIFT + DELETE, the file being too large. So, I hear about how Vista Business, Enterprise and Ultimate can access shadow copies of files. The question is, is it possible to do this in Vista Home Basic, by using all means and if not, are there any REASONABLE alternatives?
Thanks for the help, but I could find a nother program called restoration until I checked here. Thanks for the help. (if you want the URL, reply back and I'll edit.)

Windows Vista Home Basic 'local only' access via ADSL router, broudband
Hello
I've set up a new router broadband wireless ADSL to connect to my broadband PostOffice.com existing Standard.
The router is a Belkin F7D1401uk Surf N150 model.
It is facing up and running and I can use other machines to connect to the internet through it. A netbook running Windos XP SP3 and a mobile phone (Nokia X 6), but my laptop main running Windows Viast Home Basic SP2 (32 bit) do not have wireless internet access.
It is a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 2727 laptop. If I connect to the new Belkin router using an ethernet cable, I can connect to the internet. But when I unplug the ethernet cable and turn on the WiFi I see a connection to the modem Belkin Wireless, but on an 'unidentified network' and with 'local access' only.
Here is a copy of what I get when I run "ipconfig/all" at the command prompt:

But I do not understand why I "local access" only.Can anyone suggest what I can do to get my laptop connected wireless to the internet please?
Kind regards

Vista Home Basic, 32-bit. Install software (games, etc.) does not not in Control Panel Add/Remove programs or CCleaner RevoUninstaller. They use all to. I don't know what has changed. Nothing new has been installed. How can I remove the software I want to uninstall? Thanks for your help.
Hi il898,
This can also occur if the installation files are broken or missing for the program which may be reason for the program does not appear in uninstall a program from the list.
I suggest that you run the program to install the program again and check if you get an option to uninstall the program and try to uninstall the program.
If it still does not uninstall the program, and then try to reinstall the program and uninstall afterwards.I hope this helps!

I have a hp conpaq turn and I don't have a Home Basic windows vista installation disc. the hp crashed and never booted up but recently I got windows 8 and I ins
Hello
With a HP Compaq laptop press you F11 on startup to start the recovery process.
But, like the HP advises, if you install another Vista operating system, the recovery Partition is therefore more able to be used.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
There are several methods to reinstall Vista.
There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.
You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.
They should do this for a small fee.
To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:
You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:
How to change the Boot order in BIOS:
http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm
"How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246
Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.
If this happens, you may need to try this instead:
You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.
Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs
Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:
"How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html
And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.
And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

Hi, I have an Acer laptop Aspire with Vista Home Basic Edition that came pre-installed, so no records only the disk hard drive partition.
I turned on my laptop today and it starts but the loading bar of stalls at the black screen with "(c) Microsoft Corporation" and dragging green. The slide bar will continue to drag, but nothing else happens which means that I understand even as much as the login screen. I rebooted and tried Windows recovery, but the only remedy to what he suggests is a restoration of the system, which does not have any point, I try to restore it.
To remedy this, I have connected in safe mode and ran the SFC command prompt. It scans my system and told to find corrupted files, but he can't heal some. This is where my knowledge limit runs out. I don't know how to fix the files that the SFC cannot. (Also I created a journal using the findstr command prompt and checked but it say anywhere that it was unable to fix it so I'm not even sure how to identify corrupted files)
As it's an Acer laptop, Aspire I'll try their eRecovery tool to return my computer to factory settings, but it won't work in safe mode, and as I said I can not connect normally. I tried alt and F10 at the initial boot screen when I turn on, it loads the windows files and shows the Acer "Please wait a moment" screen and then nothing happens again.
I can't afford to get it fixed, and there is no chance I can get a new laptop. Any ideas/help? Thank you.

I can't log on to Windows vista home basic desktop pc because of the password previous owners is unknown
Hello
Try the following.
Using another PC, download the app from the following link and save it in your downloads folder.
Once the download is complete, open your download folder and double-click on the installer - this will result in another file, which is the disk image (.) ISO) you need to burn to a blank CD.
Now, you will need to use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank CD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.
When the disk has been created, shut down the PC you can not log on, press the ESC key as soon as you press the power button to access the Start Menu, insert the CD, select Boot Options (usually f9), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and press enter - peut also have you to "Press any key" to boot from the CD if asked to.
Follow the instructions on the guide here to remove the current password.

Online backup service for my Vista Home Basic
I tried to do a full backup of my Vista Home Basic OS. By following the instructions on the Web help and Support site, I used a total of 12 CD to do a full backup. It took a such incredible amount of time and money and I still don't know what the correct procedure. I've seen many services online that offer to do the same thing for a minimal amount. And the files would be available at any time and any PC. I don't know what to do. Pay your bills online. I downloaded a lot of music and family photos. Can someone please advise me on how best to safeguard my information simply and safely? I don't mind paying the monthly or annual fees as long as it is considered to be safe.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
Sincerely,
Linda
Hello
The best value for money option is to save a number of different external hard drives and store them off-site (perhaps in different places).
Each online backup provider has different rates depending on how you want to store and their prices change over time. To learn more, you may need to search online using your favorite search engine.

Win Vista Home Basic product key is not valid
I bought Vista Home Basic a wile ago. Now I've updated it. I want to reformat my PC, so I insert the DVD of Vista, and when I enter my product key I get the message "the key is incorrect. How can I fix it, I need to remove the updates or something?
Hi cheater39,
If you reinstall Vista you will have to update any new. If the operating system works very well, so it is useless to re - install in order to re - install. Once, re - install if you have multiple problems that can easily be corrected, and then reinstall is a "last" resort option
You say you bought Vista Home Basic. I suppose, therefore, that you went into a store and bought a full retail copy? If so, the product key number is on the case. If you bought it from another source, for example, Internet, ebay etc (except direct from Microsoft) then you know that it's a genuine product key and not a copy hacked?
It is in fact a copy of 'upgrade '? If so you need to install your "old" operating system first, for example, Windows XP and upgrade then.
Check and recheck the code product key that you insert. If it continues to say the key is not valid, resume the DVD in the store that you bought it and ask them to check it for you. You can also contact the Microsoft Customer service in your own country - you should find one address number and/or e-mail on the Microsoft Web site.
You can actually install Vista without product key by simply letting the dialog box empty product key and then pressing the next button. A message will appear in which you must press the No button. A list of the versions of Vista should then appear. Select the version that you have, for example, Vista Home Basic, press Next, then it should install. No you get away without putting the product key in. Although Windows Vista has been installed it works for a while, but it would give you time, we hope, sort out the product key number. After that the time scheduled (30 days I think) you will need to enter the correct product key otherwise Vista will simply stop working. This option is not ideal, but it will give you as small period of "grace." If you cannot sort the product key on or, heaven forbid, you ended up buying a pirated copy, you will have no real alternative but to buy another legitimate copy.
I suggest you use my last suggestion as a "last resort" option Try to install on another machine to see if the product key works, or taking it back to the shop and ask them why it won't install.
