• HP Pavilion Notebook - 15-p199: need help with the installation and activation of 10 Windows after completely uninstalling Windows

  Hello HP assistants.

  I need help for a specific problem. My laptop came with an installation of Windows 8.1. Then I upgraded to 10 Windows when it became available. After a while, I decided to uninstall Windows completely (to wipe the hard drive) and install a Linux operating system.

  Now, I decided that I want to use some software that is not available on Linux and if I want to reinstall Windows 10. My problem is that Windows has completely disappeared in a form any. So now, I need to download Windows 10 from an official source (which I think can be done fairly easily from the official source of Microsoft, although if there is a better, HP official medium to do this then please recommend it) and then I need to activate Windows some how.

  As has been made clear, I have the right to use Windows 8.1 and 10 but I would need to download Windows 10 and turn it on. Is there a way to do this? I'm literally stuck without solution.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  As long as the previous installation of Windows 10 had activated Ok after upgrade from 8.1, you can simply perform a new installation as described in the guide on the following link.  Note: On the activation screen, select "I don't have a product key" - Windows will activate automatically once installation is complete.

• 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.

• uninstall Windows live essentials

  I am on Windows 7 with a 64-bit laptop DV7. I have problems with Windows Live Mail, because when I click on the Inbox, sent. deleted etc, nothing happens. The only way I can get to my mail is to use 'Find' or to go to my Plusnet account. This is a nuisance. I have been informed through groups of Microsoft users that the best way to overcome this problem is to uninstall windows Live Essentials and instructions on how to do are on the Microsoft Web site. However, when I try I can't bring up the windows that would allow me to do. (see "how to remove and reinstall Windows Live Rssentials - I can't past 3 and" can't not "Uninstall") Could it be because there is a slight modification to the Hp software please, and if so someone can tell me how I can uninstall and then reinstall. Otherwise, it seems now that I'll have to go through the pain of complete recovery to try to resolve the problem. For any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated. GordonW

• How can I uninstall windows 7 and return to windows vista?

  Uninstall windows 7 Home premium

  How to uninstall windows 7 Home premium package and re install windows vista Home premium SP1

  Given what you have...

  Get/use your Windows Vista Home Premium media (and product key) to start to go and destroy (create new partitions and format) everything that you installed and install again.

  Once you have Windows Vista Home Premium installed, get SP1 and SP2 (in order) to get Vista to update Service Pack, then get all the post-SP2 hotfixes/updates to update installed.

  You also need to locate, download, and install all the drivers for hardware devices,-either by the manufacturer of the computer as a whole (if it's a Dell, Lenovo, Gateway, HP, etc.) or by each manufacturer of components support pages (Intel, Realtek, various manufacturers of motherboard, AMD/ATI, nVidia, Broadcom, etc..)

  You can then install all other applications (office suites, photo-editing suites, video editing suites, Internet plugins, alternative browsers, Internet plugins, etc) and activate the paid applications using the appropriate series/product numbers.

  At this point, you can restore all your backups (documents, music, photos, emails, contacts, databases, spreadsheets, presentations, Favorites/internet Favorites, etc.) on the computer.

• How to uninstall windows media center?

  How to uninstall windows media center? It keeps opening up, and I can't open all the files, pls help...

  See - http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/15530/uninstall-disable-or-remove-windows-7-media-center/ - perhaps?

  But if she "continues to open and you cannot open all files" maybe something is seriously wrong somewhere else. If he goes much evil that is, no file opens, then when it started to happen? It has been recently? you got whatever it is installed again just before the problem occurred? If then possibly consider to delete that or try a "restore point" at one point, just before the error started.

• I have 2 problems-how can I activate my Add ons and how to uninstall Windows Anti Virus. I need help, please.

  I have Windows XP 32-bit with IE8 Add ons.  I mainly use Firefox Mozilla for my browser and Yahoo as my home page.  Anyway, I have tried all the support and help guide and technicians told me to do to get add ons to open and activate but in vain.  This computer was given to me as a profession, and it was used in a Bank, so I think that the system administrator has disabled the add ons.  I myself as an administrator and use the tips and tricks given windows and Microsoft, but I always run up a wall.  I need help, please.
  I also need to know how to uninstall Windows antivirus software.  I can't find anywhere on my computer.  I feel really stupid and he is probably right in front of my face, but I can't find it to uninstall.  I have McAfee that I paid dearly for if I want to use it until it expires.

  This "Microsoft antivirus' witness (AKA Trojan W32/FakeAlert) hijackware infection!

  If you manage to somehow move to Win7, you will always have an infected computer.

  The ONLY way to solve the problem is by formatting the current hard drive and do a clean installation of Windows, whether it is WinXP or Win7.

  The ONLY way you can do a clean install of Windows XP if you have disks that came with the computer or if by chance, there is a hidden partition restore (not to be confused with the system restore).

  If your kids er - well & their spouses are going to spend money on a new HARD drive, they'be be better spend on a low-end Windows 7 computer and brand-new (for example, a netbook or a mini).

  NB: Any data on your Windows XP computer must be considered 100% reliable! (This includes all of your usernames and passwords, for example, those used for online banking, etc.) You do NOT want to put ALL the data from Windows XP to a new computer or HARD disk.

  Good luck, Grandma. Hope that your grandchildren will treat you better than their parents.

  PS: Time wounds all heels.

• How to uninstall Windows XP PRO so that I can install Windows Pro 8.1?

  Problem? My Windows XP PRO is not listed in the control panel. (The system came with the new computer).

  I want to uninstall, & replace it with Windows 8.1 pro (disk).

  Is it done in safe mode? Also how a clean uninstallation is completed?

  MS says that an upgrade is not possible (since '23 programs, etc. need attention').

  All advice appreciated. Best regards, Doug

  Original title: how to uninstall Windows XP PRO, which is not listed in the control panel?

  Of course, it is not in the control panel. This isn't how it works. You must reformat and perform a new installation of Windows 8.

  Your computer will not be able to be upgraded. You must consult the computer manufacturer to see if there is even the disks available to this end for Windows 8. Probably not.

  And, even if all the drivers were available, you always have to reinstall ALL your programs and data on the medium of origin or files and backup of the date.
