Want Windows 7 in English and do not want to lose activation
Hi, I bought a laptop from the Germany hoping to be able to upgrade the English system (not worth it if it is Win 7 or 8 to win) but I can't seem to find a way to do it safely.
I don't want to just download an ISO and wipe my hard drive - the last time I did it on another machine I lost the Activation of Windows and install Linux instead.
I had a try to update Win 7 to 10 to win, but he seemed to want to do it in German, and there was no evidence tab to select English. Can someone advise?
I have to buy a product key to upgrade to Win 10? Activation on my laptop is authentic, but save the codes did not work last time I updated without a disk ISO original with the code appearing on the side of the case.
Resolved:
Subsequently took the risk, and upgrade to Windows 7 Professional to Windows Pro 10.
Activation has been problem free. For someone else - I used the tool of creation of media, downloaded Win 64 bit in English on another computer, installed that version and automatically put it Win 10 Pro on my machine.
Download 10 win on a machine with a German or any other language OS automatically gives you an upgrade in that language only. I know that I canceled the installation 4 times on my new machine before using an another Win 64 bit machine I own too.

I spoke several times with Norton. System Restore was successful a couple of times, but Norton that was in place during this period is no longer present. I'm exploited only in safe mode and do not know how this works, either; It's very limiting. COMPUTER geeks have determined that no virus or hard drive interest. The computer is unbelievably slow without safe mode, as so well to exploit. It started mid-October with a Windows Update. Norton has been reinstalled and worked for several weeks until another Windows update. I uninstalled and reinstalled Norton until I'm blue in the face and it's still wobbly. Any help and suggestions would be so appreciated. Thank you ~.
Hi TaraYA,
· What happens when you try to install Norton?
· You receive an error message?
· Did you do changes on the computer before the show?
Windows Update does not remove any safety program. However, you can check the program installed on the computer or not?
To search for a file or folder, see the following article:

Hello
Recently I bought Windows 7 Professional upgrade because of the student discount, I had about it, not realizing it was only an upgrade. I do not have an earlier version of windows, and so now I have a copy of UN activated Windows. My question is can I buy an old vista or XP and just plug this code? It is said the upgrade works from previous versions and because I already bought the upgrade I look forward to having to buy a brand to the copy of windows 7, if I buy xp or vista.Thanks for your help.-BillHowever, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.
15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.
So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.
Note: You will not have to activate the previous license, just install.
Option 2:
Call the Activation Center and explain your situation.
Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.
When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer
Click on properties
Scroll down to the Windows Activation
Click the link x days before activation.
Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.
Enter the product key
Click next
Select the Activation of the phone
Click Next when you enter your key page
Select your country
Click Next, call the number listed
Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.
Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent
They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it
Click next to complete the activation.

Saved as files. PSD now that they are "The Windows Shell common Dll" and does not open?
I'm having a problem with some files open in Photoshop. I use Photoshop CS5.1 Extended (Version 12.1) and you have Windows 7 64 bit SP1 OS.
I'm opening a few models that I made in PhotoShop for a client and it worked fine when I used them 3 weeks ago. All were saved as .psd documents. Now when I go to open them they do have the PS icon (to show that they would be open by PhotoShop). When I try to open them I get "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document." I had this problem once before, but it's confusing to me 2 other .psd similar files that I recorded in the same period (separate for the temlate elements) are perfectly fine, those I need won't open.
I checked the properties of the file, and he claims that these files are now the Windows Shell common Dll files. Any ideas?
Among the file names, it looks like windows is confused about the type of file due to the periods in file names.
If in photoshop, you go to file > open as > PSD, open files in photoshop?
