Try to uninstall windows 7 and revert to XP

C:\>attrib-h-s-r programdat
Displayed error is programdata attrib-h-s-r "not recognized as internal or external, command an executable program or batch file."

I don't know if I stop or lose power if my PC will be damaged and not start.

At startup it will ask me if I want to run a previous Windows or Windows 7, when I try the previous selection of windows 1 he asks me a password, I've never had a password. I think I have a bad installation of the CD that causing problems or I should have used upgrade...

  • I want to uninstall Windows 8 and install Windows 7

    HP ENVY m6-1125dx Notebook PC

    My laptop came with Windows 8. I really don't like Windows 8, it is too restrictive. I want to uninstall Windows 8 and install Windows 7. How to go? Where can I get the operating system and driver software.

    Should I buy Windows 7 separately? Or can I use the same key?

    Before installing Windows 7, can I suggest an idea?

    I had the same problem: I'm a Windows 7 user who bought a laptop Windows 8 and don't really like the Metro user interface. It is half cooked for desktop/laptop computer, several apps to not scroll horizontally with the touchpad, etc, etc.

    But what I did install a simple program called "Debut8" (http://www.stardock.com/products/start8/) that still allows me to go right at the part 8 Windows desktop and use it as I have Windows 7. The advantage of this approach is that you get the benefits of the internal improvement of Windows 8 (some improvements in performance on Windows 7, etc.) and do not have the hassle/cost of installing Windows 7. You can also try a GPL program called Classic Shell (http://classicshell.sourceforge.net/). So far I am happy with debut8 as a solution.

    Anyway, worth before going through the cost and difficulty of installing Windows 7.

  • I try to run windows update and it will not update gives error code 80070005

    I try to run windows update and it will not update gives error code 80070005, I also ran fix and it tells me that it is fixed but it is not getting the same error code when I try to update after running it help please?

    Hello

     
     

    1. which Microsoft Fixit did you?

    2 have you installed new hardware or software before the show?

    3. who is the antivirus installed on the computer program?

    4 update you are trying to install?

    5. are you logged on as administrator on the computer?


    If this isn't the case, I suggest you to log on as an administrator and check for the issue.
     
    Method 1:
    One of the other reason for the 80070005 error is caused by software running on your computer security.
    Temporarily disable the security software on the computer and see if that makes a difference.
    Disable the anti-virus software
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software
    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
     
    Method 2:
    I suggest you perform the steps described in the article:
    Error: 0x80070005 when you try to install updates by using Microsoft Update or Windows Update
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/968003
    This problem may occur if access is denied when accessing or copying files during the process of Windows Update or Microsoft Update. Access may be denied if you have logged on to the computer as a standard user and this account does not have permission to install updates. I suggest you to follow the steps and check if it helps.

    Method 3:
    Perform a clean boot, and then check if it helps.

  • How can I uninstall windows 8 and install windows 7 on an Inspiron 17R SE 7720

    I bought my Inspiron 17R SE with Windows 8 installed in December 2012. I tried my best to become familiar with Windows 8, but most of the time I do love. I tried to use the classic interface so it looked like Windows 7 but I still don't like it.  It seems to me that Windows 8 be not really suitable for the use of the laptop.

    I want to uninstall Windows 8 and install my own copy of Windows 7 Pro, but I do not know if it will install on a laptop at the origin of installation for Windows 8.  I asked Technical Support on this issue, but I was told that Dell would not support this so they couldn't help me.

    Can anyone here help me with detailed instructions on how to achieve what I want... I read that the needs of settings in the Bios to be changed before I start but do not know what to do.

    Thank you

    I uninstalled windows 10 and installed windows 7 again but it's not getting updates

    You can reset the Windows Update components by running the Fixit on this page. But if there is malware present, she will continue to reset the connection to the update servers:

    How to reset the Windows Update components

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058

    Suggest you download and save the Fixit. Then configure the system before the clean boot by running:

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista/Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Once the Fixit has been downloaded and the system is started in the pure State, check that the native Windows Firewall is now on if a 3rd party firewall has been used previously. Now run the Fixit and choose the default mode. Restart once it's done and see if the system can be connected to the update servers. If he can't, then rerun the Fixit and choose aggressive mode. Turn it back on when he finished the race and updates.

    I suggest before you stop and install the updates, disconnect from the Internet, first.

    How to uninstall windows 10 and reinstall windows 7

    I do not recommend coming back because I've seen too much to go wrong.
    Returning can be done only if you have installed in the past 30 days (if you created a new user, you should remove it before come back you)

    Back on the settings > update & security > Recovery > roll back to a previous operating system

    This will only work if the windows.old and 2 hidden folders ($Windows. ~ WS & Windows $. ~ BT) are still present.  If you do that you will need to re - install.
