Problems returning from 10 Windows on Windows 7

I have a Dell Latitude E6520, which came with Win 7 Pro installed OA. I have upgraded to Windows 10 when prompted to do so by the pop-up last fall.

It worked pretty well for a while, but there are ongoing problems with the sound and iTunes and I need for my work so I would just go back to Win 7, even though more than a month has passed.

I tried to download Win 7 iso to help do, but when I tried the site of iso of Windows I got the error message "the product key you have entered seems to be the software that was preinstalled by the manufacturer of the device. Contact the manufacturer of the software device for recovery options. »

Can someone help me to move forward?

Concerning

Dev

I'm in the United Kingdom. I heard that Microsoft cannot help with pre-installed software. I'm on a Win10 forum about it, and someone has experience with my laptop so I think I'll be able to sort it out. Thanks for your help. Dev

    Hello

    I get this error "failed to configure windows updates. returning from changes. do not turn off your computer. The computer is a Samsung Ativ tab 5 and I got it for a little over a week.
    I have updated with the SW update
    The results of the troubleshooting online are:

    I have been through ALL the steps as described in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949358. I have had no success.
    One thing that bothers me, is in the configuration of the system, I have a service called true vector Internet Monitor (Zone Alarm) and when the value disable as in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135, it is the only service still running when you perform a clean restart. I don't know if this affects the Automatic Updates/configuration or not.

    Hello

    Thanks for trying to help. Now my computer seems to be up-to-date.
    I followed your steps but MicrosoftFixit50202.msi did not like "my OS is incompatible. I use windows 8.  I couldn't run this in default or aggressive.
    I did go in Control Panel and disable antivirus and firewall Zone Alarm and reset Windows defender by default.
    I did IE default web browser I have prob changed when I got to the computer.
    I then returned to set up a clean boot and this time I managed to disable the true vector Internet Monitor (Zone Alarm) to run.
    I ran the reset troubleshooting of Windows with the same result as before is to say:
    Recent updates - not fixed installation problems
    Search for missing or corrupted - files detected
    I think I have restarted my computer at this stage and then tried to update again.
    It has not yet, but with the error, I got an error code and a link to help. I don't have not noticed this before. I followed the help and ran about 5 command prompts that have to do with the renaming of files I think.
    Then I tried updating again and this time 38 45 updates succeeded. I then ran the update again and it seemed to work on the other 7 updates.
    Although Windows Update said I was now updated, I was skeptical as when this whole thing started is started when I got the "windows installs updates" and then "failed to configure updates. Returning... etc"then I restarted my computer. At the start, there was no message on try to configure the updates, then, how do I know they are configured and working as it should?
    Thank you.

  • Problems with Activation in Windows 8

    Hello

    To avoid confusion, I will not leave many details of my situation, so that this message can get long. My apologies in advance for this, and all advice is welcome.

    A long time ago when I bought a digital copy of Windows 8 shortly after its release I installed it on an old laptop (without recovery media came with it; I bought refurbished Toshiba with Windows 7 Home) and shortly after, the laptop is dead - a chip on its Board of directors - so not having not knowledge of licensing, I used his HARD drive in another, original Vista HP Slimline PC dying. Some time later, a screw has been abandoned on the pins of the Committee on recovery ROM, so I replaced the Board with an identical (Acacia M2N61-AR). Because what was I guess that came from the BIOS, the new Board of Directors would not accept the old HDD. I do fix by someone whom I don't know personally, which I doubt has all the certificates... anyway, once I come back the jury it starts fine, but the OS has been reset, with the watermark from Windows 8 at the bottom left of the desk, as it has always been. I don't know if it was something that nobody is (maybe something illegal?) but I can't activate windows when he asks, because he says that it cannot be activated at this time. I can also activate it via the phone (or any other method) via the activation ID and I bought a copy of Windows Professional 10 as a shortcut, but, of course, he wants another key because the key that comes with it is the same as my old key (I know this is probably how it is supposed to be, but he was initially asked me to buy a new Windows 8 key just to reactivate). Currently, I have removed the key via CMD Admin compatible as suggested in another post (for a completely different problem) and returned to its State at the trail version of the operating system and uses the tool of creation of media Windows 10 download Windows 10 for a second time.

    I apologize if what anyone in this post isn't 100% clear because I myself made a little crazy trying to fix all these crazy catch-22. Thank you for your time. It means a lot to me right now and will be for the longevity of this PC, as I use it as a learning experience to supplement my knowledge in PC.

    Hello Haicii,

    Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

    Thank you for details on the issue.

    I also appreciate the fact that you are also trying to upgrade to Windows 10.

    I suggest you read this article and then try to activate Windows 8.
    Reference:
    Get help from Microsoft Windows activation
    https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/950929

    Later, you can upgrade to 8.1 Windows, then Windows 10. Only Windows 7 sp1 and Windows 8.1 users can upgrade to Windows 10.

  • message "your purchase could not be completed" when you try to install Adobe Reader from the Windows store

    I try to install Adobe Reader Touch to my Surface installed Pro Windows 8.1 Microsoft Windows store.  I get the following message is displayed:

    "Your purchase could not be executed.

    Something has happened and it's impossible to make your purchase.  "Error code: 0 x 080070057.

    Only, this seems to be a problem with Adobe Reader Touch.  I was able to install applications from other vendors and Adobe (for example, Photoshop Express to the elements).  So it doesn't seem to be a problem with my Adobe account, or a problem with Windows Store system.

    Anyone have this problem?  All solutions?

    THX.

    Hi jjquinn75

    I recommend contacting Microsoft about this error message as it is returned by the windows store program.

    Furthermore, I you recommend to download the installer for Adobe reader offline using this link (Adobe - Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Distribution ) and then try to install on your device pro surface.

    Kind regards

  • on my laptop running windows 7 more information disappeared from the window - topics (file, publishing, display, etc.), address bar and navigation buttons - everything I can see tabs - how do the lack of points to display

    Missing on my laptop running windows 7, all the info displayed at the top of the home page. All headings, i. e. file, change the view etc. disappeared. There is no address bar. There is no "home button", the button refresh, etc.. My wife was using the machine when it happened, so I don't know what she was doing. How to restore these features?

    most of the information has disappeared from the window - topics (file, publishing, display, etc.), address bar and navigation buttons

    When all the toolbars are missing, you are probably in full screen view, press F11 to toggle mode full-screen, or you can move the cursor to the top of the screen.

    The real problems you describe all set thanks to an extension and customization, see 01:10 steps later...

    You can make Firefox 5.0 looks not like Firefox 3.6.19, see numbered 1 to 10 points in the next topic difficulty Firefox 4.0 UI toolbar, problems (Make Firefox 5.0, or 4.0.1 resemble 3.6). If you make changes, you must be aware of what has changed and what it takes to use changed or missing features.

    It is much more beyond these first 10 steps in the list, if you want to make Firefox more functional.

    Toolbars and their contents have been rearranged and buttons have been merged dual-use, the net result is that I could see about 25% of what I had before and recorded about 10% of the area of the toolbar with great loss of functionality to hide things that might already be hidden and to create confusing buttons that already have keyboard shortcuts and don't need to be seen. The only good thing that has been ' Ctrl + / ' has been added to hide/show the modules bar that has not replaced the status bar.
