• Add features of Windows 8 error "failed to create the restore point.

  Original title: IL SAID AROR MESSAGE CANT CREAT RESTORE POINTWEN I ADD FEATURES

  I WENT TO ADD FEATURES PURCHASED WIN 8 PRO PACK NOW WEN I'LL INSTALL SAYS CANT CREAT RESTORE POINT PLEASE TRY AGAIN

  MARKTRAVIS

  Hi Mark,
   
  I appreciate the efforts that you put to publish the query on this forum.
   
  However, it would be better if you can provide some details related to the query:
  (1) is there a third party security software installed on the computer?
  (2) there the restore points that are created on the computer before this problem?
   
  System Restore automatically recommends the last restore created before a significant change like installing a program point.
   
  To store restore points, you need at least 300 megabytes (MB) of free space on each hard disk with the system on Protection. System Restore can use up to 15 percent of the space on each disk. As the amount of space fills up with restore points, System Restore deletes older restore points to make room for the new.
   
  You can also follow these steps to increase the memory allocated for the restoration of the system:
  (a) press Windows and Pause Break to open System Properties.
  (b) click on the System Protection option.
  (c) click on each disc.
  (d) click on Configure.
  (e) check if the allocation of memory on each hard disk is allocated.
   
  The settings above, you can also check if there are restore points available on the computer. Click System Restore, and check if you are able to find restore points.
   
  To solve the problem, if you have installed a third-party security software on the computer, I suggest you temporarily disable and check if it solves the problem.
  Important note: Security 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.
   
  Please let us know about the status of this issue.

• Does not add features to the option of windows 8

  I use windows 8 pro home & want to upgrade in WMC worm. but I have not found the "add features to windows 8", please help me solve this problem

  I found a solution that works, first the version no N or N has not worked for me, I was not able to find the option 'Add features' no matter what I did.

  If you use an MSDN subscription and you can download software, download and install iso from windows indicating "Windows 8.1 with update (several editions) (x 64) - DVD (English)", once the installation starts it will ask a key use, get a key for windows 8 pro, once this is made, you will have to 'Add Windows features' available, that's all it took , it seems that iso of windows 8 pro does not have this feature turned on, but the multiple editions seems to have a different version of the operating system.

  With that I could buy the pack of Windows Media Center, and now I'm under Windows Media Center on Windows 8.1 pro.

  See you soon!

• Unable to install printer Deskjet F4280 all-in-one Windows Pro 8.1

  A week ago my laptop with Windows Pro 8.1 was a significant error and he stopped, then I restarted the operating system with a previous image of the hard drive C. I reinstalled another printer and I tried very time to reinstall the HP Deskjet F4280 all-in-one with the latest driver and with the installation of the Printer Wizard uploaded by HP web site. Unfortunately every time installation fails during step "product configuration" after a lot of minutes to expire. The error was the last time.

  CSetupWrapperApp: No section name specified on the command line
  = Application did not return ERROR_SUCCESS. Returned 0 x 1

  I used your HP print and Scan doctor and I followed all instaructions and in the end, no solution has been discovered. Other applications normally run without problem and laptop works fine. I installed Windows Pro 8.1 almost a year ago and until a week ago, I have no problem with the HP printer above. I can solve this installation problem?

  Thank you for the update. The registry document I sent should apply to all computers in Windows 8. Please try to follow these steps.

  If you do not provide the error log, which could be very useful. This will help me to refine the question. Also, I do not fear spend 20 minutes reading code until something is different.

  I will help you with pleasure until the issue is resolved. If you find my help, you can keep tagging my posts with congratulations and accepted Solutions. It would be appreciated.

  Have a great day!

  I enter the product key when I run add a feature to 8.1 win again, but the windows prompted me key is not valid.

  Why?

  Insalled Win8.1 is the authentic version. I can perform regular updates of Windows without problem.

  Appreciate if any expert can help solve my problem.

  Hello

  The add feature is to upgrade your current Windows 8/8.1 Core Windows 8/8.1 Pro Edition or Windows Media Center Edition 8/8.1.

  It requires you to purchase the particular product key with regard to the option to add features.

  Here are some links to help you understand:

• I can't add a component from the Add Remove program window as says could not initialize winxp

  I can't add a component from the Add Remove program window as says could not initialize winxp

  My victory is xp professional ver 2002 service pack 3

  It's usually easy to fix, but if you removed all the dll and inf files, you can have a bunch of other problems that you have not yet discovered.

  If you mean when you try to use Add/Remove Windows components you see a message like this:

  Install was not able to load the master file.
  The application could not be initialized.

  This happens because this file is missing:

  c:\windows\inf\sysoc.inf

  There is no copy backup of this file on your system and run the System File Checker will not replace the missing file (sorry, that Microsoft committed Support Engineer 'experts').

  You will need to get a real copy of your XP bootable installation CD or from a reliable source.

  There's a copy on my SkyDrive, you can download - here's how:

  I downloaded a copy of XP Pro SP3 file you need on my SkyDrive (everyone has a SkyDrive for file sharing).

  You can download it and when you do, put a copy of the file in this folder (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):

  c:\Windows\Inf

  Here is the link to my SkyDrive and you can get the file you need here:

  https://SkyDrive.live.com/?CID=6a7e789cab1d6f39&ID=6A7E789CAB1D6F39! 311

  When you see the files available for download, you can not see the file extension (.exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, .zip, etc.), but when download you them they will have the right extension.

  When you download the file (especially if you use Internet Explorer), when you get a chance to save the file, your browser is unable to save the file with an extension (by example, .exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, .zip, etc) then you will need to manually add the extension appropriate to the file when you download the file before you save it.

  You can download the file without the extension, and then rename the file to add the appropriate extension.  You do not want to use a file named sysoc when the name of the file should really be called sysoc.inf (if the downloaded file has no extension, you will need to change the name of the file to add the appropriate extension to make it work.

  You must then copy and paste the downloaded folder appropriate on your system.
