• 8.1 Windows Pro update the problem (from Windows 8 Pro) on Envy 23 TouchSmart all-in-One...

  Hello

  I have a HP Envy 23 Touchsmart all-in-one that I bought a year ago (12/2012). It comes preinstalled with Windows 8.

  System information:

  (a) Intel (r) Core i7 - 3770 S CPU @ 3.10 GHz

  (b) 8192 MB of RAM

  A few weeks after that I had bought the system, I've upgraded to Windows 8 Pro with Media Center that I bought through Microsoft upgrade program.

  Last week (19/10/2013), I saw the option upgrade to Windows 8. 1 in the store and decided to upgrade.

  After a few minutes, I got a prompt asking me to restart the computer, and I did.

  However, I noticed that the screen has turned white, but it restarts not really - I have seen that the hard drive light was still flashing and I waited for about 15 minutes. I know it does not restart because if that were the case I would have seen the HP logo on the screen of the BIOS. A little later, the system entered into mode 'sleep' (at least the light blinked slowly as if it was the sleep). As it was late at night, I decided to leave the system alone and decided to check on it the next morning. The next morning, he was still in mode 'sleep' (as I feared) - when I tried to wake up from her sleep by moving the mouse/hit the return key, he did the exact sounds as if he were to wake up from its sleep (as it always does), but the screen is still blank. The light power button lit up constantly indicating he's awake now.

  At this point, I decided to turn off the system by holding the button for a few seconds. To restart, I saw the HP logo on the BIOS boot screen and the screen went white and nothing came.

  So I decided do a system recovery using my Windows 8 recovery CD and turn off the system with the CD in its niche. This time, the system came and began immediately to restore my OS to a previous version.

  After connecting to the system recovered, I received the following message:

  "Could not update for Windows 8.1.

  Sorry, we could not complete the update Windows 8.1. We have restored the previous version of Windows on this computer.

  0xC1900101 - 0 x 40019.

  I tried to reinstall Windows 8.1 a couple of times after that. Once to disable all non-Microsoft services and disabling all startup programs. Always the same result.

  I have no antivirus software on my other system protection of Microsoft default system software.

  Any help, greatly appreciated.

  Thank you.

  I have disabled active secure boot existing starter and the update worked.  Now we get the error of watermark "secure boot not configured correctly.  But I have re-enabled secure boot and the error disappeared.

• The transition to Windows 7 pro for Windows 10 Pro for Adobe CC

  Hi all

  I would like to get comments on the transition to Windows 7 Pro for Windows 10 Pro. I'm currently running windows 7 pro 64-bit with Creative cloud mainly for video editing applications (Organization, After effects, Illustrator, Photoshop, hearing etc... (I always use first CS6 and Encore CS6 for some projects more elders and Authoring).

  My computer configuration is the following:

  -Windows 7 Pro Service pack 1

  -Processor Intel Core i7-4960 X [email protected]

  -Motherboard: Asus P9X79

  -64 GB of RAM

  -SSD 512 GB Pro 840 Samsung

  -2 x ASUS GeForce GTX780

  -9To hard (3 x 3-Western Digital Caviar Black) in Raid 0 for video work

  -Hard disk data CaviarBlack WD 2 TB

  I would evaluate whether it's a good idea to transition to windows 10 pro, is the update is going to be done automatically without having to reinstall all the software?

  I'd appreciate your comments of a person with a configuration similar to mine, or by experts from Adobe

  Thanks in advance

  Hope that helps!

• I have different bookmarks I want to keep on each computer, synchronization will delete the bookmarks on a single computer and replace the bookmarks from another computer in their place

  I have not yet used sync, but I sense it's going to be a problem if I do. I have different bookmarks I want to keep it on each computer. Sync will delete the bookmarks on a single computer and replace the bookmarks from another computer in their place? So I think that will erase the bookmarks on the second computer you configured to synchronize. Is there a way to merge bookmarks on every computer in the library of a bookmark that contains all bookmarks on both computers, so I'm not all bookmarks in sync?

  Just to be clear, this is something that we have commented several times in the forum, Firefox Sync adds everything that is already in the device for the account and pushes this info for the rest of the devices.

  So if you have 2 computers with data X and the other with the data from there, once you set up synchronization in both computers you will have X + Y at the same time.

  I hope that clarifies the doubts...

• When I try to copy the files from Windows Mail on Vista on a USB key I get the message "you are about to copy this file without its properties

  I move the file from my old PC which took place with Vista on a new computer running with Win 10 where I have Windows Live Mail is installed.  When I try to copy the files from Windows Mail on Vista on a USB key I get the message "you are about to copy this file without its properties".  After studying this issue on the forums, a proposed solution was to reformat the drive in NTFS format, I did.  This does not solve the problem.  Any suggestions?  Would it be OK in this case to ignore the message and copy the file without its properties?

  Well data files/user of vista should work. Yes a NTFS format is good, go to run, or cmd, type:

  diskmgmt.msc in msc, R.click on the material, delete the partition, create one, format. Use the default settings,

  Once thru, L.click the disk, go to actions, all, select 'enable '.

• After saving the emails from windows live mail, why not open them on my computer as the file extension is wlmail.fol?

  After saving the emails from windows live mail, why not open them on my computer as the file extension is wlmail.fol?

  wlmail.fol is a tiny text giving the name of the folder. The exported messages will have filenames like 00D13E83 - 000025DF.eml. If you don't see all of the files like this, your export probably did not work properly.

  For a successful export, follow these directions:

  1. Set Windows Live Mail to work offline before starting.
  2. Create a temporary folder on your desktop * to contain the exported messages.
  3. In the Export Wizard, select the temporary folder, and then select all the folders.* *
  4. When it is complete, check that the number of files in each folder to the temporary folder is one more than the number of messages in the corresponding folder of WLMail.
  5. Copy the temporary file to its final destination.
     If you use a reader not NTFS to do this, you will see a warning that certain file properties will not be copied files. This can be ignored.

  * Windows Live Mail do not work with files that are not on a local drive, as opposed to an external or network drive. This is avoided by using the office as a temporary folder location. 
  * If you want to export the files sampled only, select each of them containing messages. Subfolders are not automatically selected by default.

• What is the difference between windows 7 pro debug/checked and simple windows 7 pro?

  What is the difference between windows 7 pro debug/checked and simple windows 7 pro? /

  Regular accumulation is the regular version at retail of Windows because most of us use (SP1 or not).

  The build Debug/Check is specifically aimed at developers who developed to make it easier for the debugging flag
  drivers to be developed. This build runs much slower due to the abduction of optimizations and other functions.
