• Details of Windows 7 - upgrade to Windows 10 question?

  Separated from this thread.

  -snip-

  Something else to note. Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 are eligible for a free upgrade for Windows 10 in May / June. That is why its pointless to upgrade a Windows 7 system to Windows 8.1 (2 for 1 license Windows 10 licenses) or use Windows 8.1 for only 3 months. If you have a qualifying system XP or Vista for the system requirements for Windows 8.1 64 bit license is better on that. It will satisfy those who pass through the upgrade only...

• Help please - Windows update - restart issues (and upgrade to Windows 10 questions?)

  Hello

  I wanted to switch to Windows 10 but got stuck on the "start download" page, as have other users.

  Looking through the other questions on this site, I have seen that Windows update may need to complete before you start with Windows 10.

  I had not run windows update for a long time I thought that would mean Windows 10 would install and I wasn't ready for this, but now I am.

  Then I ran windows update and more than 150 updates have been installed.

  However, he now says:

  "Restart your computer to install important updates

  Windows cannot update services and important files while the system uses them.  Save... "

  I rebooted, shut down, rebooted several times, but this message continues to appear in the Windows Update window.

  Still, the update of Windows 10 stuck initially download.

  I ran disk cleanup in safe mode, as well as normal and tried to restart, but it did not help.  I tried the troubleshooting windows update option, but this did not help.

  I used two tools, the Microsoft FixIt who did not help and a WindowsUpdateDiagnostic.diagcab file which allows to find the two errors and saying: he fixed them, but this still does not work, IE always ask me to restart and Windows 10 gets stuck to download from.

  The two problems it finds are listed as:

  "Windows Update error 0 x 80070005(2016-05-30-T-08_49_44P)" and is listed as fixed

  "Problems install the latest updates" and is considered to be fixed.

  I am at my wits end and would be really grateful for the help.

  If this becomes technical, please help me in using a step by step method or referring to one for me.

  I have a laptop of Toshiba Windows 7 64-bit.

  Thanks in advance

  EDIT: I ran the above diagnostic tool and the error was fixed progresses over time, that is to say it is correct to say 09:03 now...  Also, to revise accordingly the so-called updates installed, many of them, but not all, have the status of a failed.

  What to do about all this?

• ProBook 450 G1: Question of Probook of video playback in G1 of the 450 after upgrade to Windows 10

  Hello.

  Issues (stop, shaking in the video and sound) are multiply video playback after upgrade Windows 8.1 for Windows 10.

  Questions for:

  -Playback (avi, mkv, mp4 etc.) VMP Movies & TV AND;

  -Playback of video from Youtube by Edge and IE11;

  -Video playback in games.

  NO problem all does to (workaround):

  -Reading of files (avi, mkv, mp4 etc) by VLC player.

  -Video playback from Youtube through Firefox.

  Not any way to workaround that emit in the games: its integrated use of resources of the browser.

  VLC uses own video codecs, so I think that this emission source is possibly in embedded Windows 10 codecs?

  Drivers:

  Intel SoftPaq Download Manager Video drivers (latest for Windows 10: technical support site the same as at HP).

  AMD drivers for Widnows 10 SoftPaq Download Manager (the same that at HP supports the site) is buggy and causes crash (the "internal power error"). If Catalyst drivers from AMD (latest from Windows 10) site.

  Additional drivers, also upgraded for Windows 10 (via the SDM for Windows-10): chipset keeps drivers, WiFi, 3D etc.

  Any ideas?

  Problem has been resolved by unistalling HD Audio drivers (installed on Windows 8.1 early HP).

  After the reboot, the drivers HD Audio was automatically installed and then updated via Windows Update.

  Video playback is now correct through no fault inside any software (IE, edge, WMP etc.).

• Recently bought a laptop computer; A few questions about the offer Upgrade to Windows 8

  I have a few questions about the Upgrade of Windows 8 offer for new computers.  I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite S855-S5268 of amazon.com, which came with Windows 7 Home Premium.  Toshiba already has a beta version of drivers and utilities for Windows 8 for the S855 on their Web site.

  (1) I bought my laptop in July of this year, and I've not yet registered for 8 Windows Upgrade offer with Microsoft.  Am I still eligible to receive the upgrade, if I sign up soon?
  (2) if I buy the upgrade through this offer, I'll be able to download an ISO file so I can burn the installation media, or do I need to upgrade to Windows 7?
  (3) if I will be able to burn the installation media, I'll be able to erase my hard drive and do a clean install of Windows 8 (which I'd rather do, I have a lot of backups of my data).  I am aware that I would probably need to provide my product key Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit OEM during the new installation, because it is an upgrade and not a full version; This isn't a big deal, because my Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit OEM product key is stuck at the bottom of my laptop.
  (4) my current copy of Windows 7 is activated by seeing my BIOS (I have a traditional BIOS, not a UEFI).  If I had to switch to Windows 8 and decide then I'd rather back in Windows 7, for example, a few months later, I'll be able to do that (I burned recovery of Windows 7 with the Toshiba utility disks, which I did), and Windows 7 will continue to activate by seeing my BIOS, even after the installation (and later remove) Windows 8?
  Thank you very much!

• Question for the Vista Home Premium upgrade to Windows 7?

  After you run the Upgrade Advisor, I like Windows mail is compatible with Windows 7. How can I save my emails filed so I don't lose them when I do the upgrade? Thamks

  Windows Update has nothing to do with the upgrade of Windows. That being said...

  Your Windows Mail data will be preserved when you switch to Win7.

  Unlike Vista and Windows XP, Win7 does NOT have any default mail client. However, you can install Windows Live Mail (free) or another e-mail Client (e.g. MS Outlook, which is not free) and then import data from Windows Mail stored in your new email Client.

  You can find more help in this specific Win7 forum: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7network/threads

  You will find public support for Windows Live Mail in this discussion group: http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/list/en-us/default.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.windows.live.mail.desktop

• Upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8 question

  I bought a 8 upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate E winodws upgrade disc and when I run the Setup from the disk, it gives me the error message;

  You cannot install an intermediate version on an no intermediate version with the installer.
  
  How can I fix?

  This has not worked for me either.

  Well, you'll just have to do a custom installation. It will take you to reinstall hardware drivers and applications.

  Boot from the DVD Windows 8
  Click Install now
  Accept the license agreement
  When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

  Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 8 click Next.

  You will receive the following warning:

  The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

  (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

  The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

  Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

  You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

• One last question... The upgrade of Windows 7 will be a step forward or backward?

  An upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium really ultimately will make a very positive difference & great overall performance and use daily versus continuing to run Vista Home Premium on HP's newer models equipped with AMD Turion or Athlon processors such as the laptop DV2000 or m8200n Office?

  Personally, I like Windows 7 to Windows Vista, based on performance. The systems I use with Windows 7 to work faster now compared to performance with Vista.

  He could not make a huge difference or big, but you will feel a positive difference.

• I started with a sec_error_unknown_issuer and now have a sec_error_bad_signature after the upgrade to Windows 10.

  I upgraded to Windows of Windows 8.1 10 last night. I tried to connect to facebook, a few hours ago and find that I can't. The error is, "this connection is untrusted", with "this site uses HTTP Strict Transport Security (HST) to specify that Firefox didn't connect safely. As a result, it is not possible to add an exception for this certificate."

  I scoured the help forums and have learned that it is because I have active parental control and trying to access accounts on an account of "the child". One of them suggested is to disable parental control. This is not an option. I absolutely must have Family Safety for my laptop.

  This thread is very useful: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1075301. I did the first answer Philipp suggested, "Trust this CA to identify web sites", and I confirmed this change.

  Now, whenever I try to access Facebook, Google, Yahoo, Youtube, etc, I get this:
  An error occurred during a connection to www.yahoo.com. The peer certificate has an invalid signature. (Error code: sec_error_bad_signature)

     The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
     Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.
  

  I ran out of ideas. I went back to the thread useful and tried the next thing, philipp suggested: go to the Web page, "https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2965142" and then clicking on the link "known issues for Mozilla Firefox users. The problem with this, is that the instructions seem to be written for a device touchscreen enabled; I don't have a touchscreen device, I have a laptop to play with without a touchscreen.

  I know there is a lot of information, but I would really appreciate anyone help in my struggle to be able to access these sites without asking my mother to get on his administrator account when I want to access these Web sites.

  in case you want to use family protection by intention, you need a configuration so that it can function in firefox and install the security certificate for the family that is getting used to intercept connections secure in the confidence of the ms browser store: while in firefox, click on this link - then must display a dialog on the addition of a cert. Please check the trust this CA to identify web sites & confirm the change.

  Alternatively, you can also try the manual procedure described in https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2965142 in the section about firefox.
