What has replaced the last good configuration in windows 8

Hello

I hear 2 weeks there is a member of the microsoft community this last good configuration does not exist anymore in windows safe mode 8.

is this true? If Yes, what feature has replaced the last good configuration?

Thank you

Joha

You can access all the options of recovery like this:

  1. Click the Power Options icon, and then hold down the SHIFT key while you click the Restart option. Keep now shift until the screen shows it restarts.
  2. On the first screen that appears, select troubleshooting, and then select Advanced Options. Finally, choose the boot settings and click Restart.
  3. On the next screen, you will see things like Safe Mode and service options which would be "last well known."

  • What has replaced the vpn concentrator?

    Greenhorn here, I was not to sit in this place.  We have three remote sites, sister of institutions, we share an app with.  Host us the app.  A site has a configuration of vpn concentrator, the other two use a leased from point to point line. They each have a router that connects to a single router.  They want to replace the lines leased by using a vpn.  Do the digging, I see that the hubs are EOL.

    So, what is used to replace the hub today?  What is a solution today from leased lines? They are all poor profit. My guess is that they will say look on Ebay for a hub if the solution is too expensive.

    Thanks Jim

    Jim

    The package of security (CISCO2901-SEC/K9 or CISCO2921-SEC/K9) is the convenient way to get the combination of the router, the software and licenses you will need. I don't think that you need something more elaborate than one of these security packages.

    I think one of these would be a good choice for you. It's been a while since I looked at the details of these routers. My recollection is that the 2921 offers more power, more interfaces and a few other benefits and would be attractive to many of us. But I think I understand your needs, I believe that the 2901 router cheaper and quite adequate for you.

  • Upgrade to El Capitan has replaced the boot on Configuration partition dual boot

    I've been using find for a dual-boot my Macbook Pro with OSX and Ubuntu.  Today, I decided to upgrade my OSX Yosemite to El Capitan.

    After downloading all the 6G, which took about six hours, and the installation program, I received a prompt to restart my computer.  After that, and waiting more than 10 minutes staring at a blank screen, I pressed the power button, but nothing happened.  After doing this several times and get in trouble in the meantime, I pressed and held.  To my surprise the blank screen is having a background slightly shine completely black color.  Then, I realized that the computer was actually still on, and I interrupted probably something I shouldn't.

    Then I turned on my computer, and instead of being presented to the screen where I choose which operating system to load, I got OSX loading screen with the Apple logo and progress bar.  After some time, the OSX installer appeared and told me that it would take 19 minutes to install OSX.  However, after a minute and a half, the installer left with the message:

    OS X could not be installed on your computer

    A partition of start-up assistance is required when working with the storage of carrots.

    Exit Setup to restart your computer and try again.


    Product restarts the same result, as described above.

    Using the disk utility program, I see that I still have my Ubuntu partition, although not like OS X doesn't shows being available and has no information about it other than its size.

    As a customer, I am pretty upset by this situation.

    Why don't/that the installer should overwrite the MBR?  It's totally useless!  Why the installation program could not upgrade the OS that he treated and leave the rest alone computer?  If someone at Apple has not considered the possibility that some of their users will want to double to start their systems?

    Why are there not warnings or other information displayed during the preparation phase indicating that this would happen?  Why me staring at a screen empty while something, probably important, took place in the background and leading me to believe that my computer had hung up?  Surely a window could have been displayed saying something like "do not turn off your computer.

    Now that I have my setup porked, I need to recover from an old backup, get kind of rEFInd running again, back up my Ubuntu installation and probably delete the partition.  Then try to upgrade to El Capitan again after the download of an another 6G.  Once El Capitan is at work, I'll have to recreate the EXT4 partition and restore Ubuntu top and install rEFInd.  This seems to be an arrangement rather STUPID having to cross in 2016.

    Has anyone else had this problem?  If so, advice on how to get all this done effectively?

    New user account is not happy!


    Well, it seems that the recovery of my Time Machine backup is not so simple...

    In the setup of OS X, utilities disk is available, so I ran it.

    I've selected the partition where OS X is installed and choose the editing command-> restore from the menu, and then set the "restore from:' location to my partition backup (located on an external USB drive) and press ."

    This produces a message saying "restore process has failed. Press OK to continue.  (Continue where?)

    Open the details view showed me:

    Validation of targets...

    Validation of source...

    Could not unmount volume "/ Volumes/Image . (No end of quote)

    " Volume" (busy resource) (Who's using it?  (Not me!)

    What volumes cannot be disassembled?  Apple media disk image?  Why?  What these volumes As make me writing disk4s2 to disk1?

    I'll try to disassemble the Terminal and see if disk utility can help you.


  • my laptop keeps going to start page.__No regardless of which option to choose, that is to say. safe mode, safe mode, safe mode with command prompt, the last known good configuration, start windows normally, it's always the same

    my laptop keeps going to the start page. No matter which option I choose, IE. safe mode, safe mood with networking, safe mode with command prompt, last known, good configuration start windows normally, it always comes back to the same screen. saw this post before and the invloved boot cd solution. I have not a cd ROM is there another way to solve this problem. Thank you people

    Thank you for taking the time to make this post very informative, excellent. Without the machine test myself that I can't be sure, but based on the age of the computer and what you wrote I suspect for lack of material. It could be something simple like the hard drive or RAM or something more serious like the motherboard. I wouldn't recommend replacing any material on such an old laptop.

    As long as the hard disk has been physically, you can recover your data easily. If the hard drive has failed, then you will need to send the drive to a professional drive savers data recovery company. It is quite expensive ($500-3700), but they can usually recover your data. Some insurance policies cover also, professional data recovery in order to check with yours. But let's be optimistic. ;-)

    IMPORTANT - If there is no question that the drive is at fault - there are noises, for example - and the data is crucial NOTHING else ON THE DISC. Whenever launch you this player you can destroy data. If this is the case, send the drive to a professional data recovery company.

    I'll give you the information on how to test the hard drive to see if it's good physically and how to recover data when you can't in Windows but in doing these things requires a certain level of computer skills. You know yourself the best and that it would be better to take the laptop to a competent local professional. If you do this, do not use a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place. Get recommendations from family, friends and colleagues.

    A. test equipment

    Test the hard drive with a diagnostic utility downloaded from site of the disc mftr. or use SeaTools for BACK of Seagate. You create a bootable CD with the files you download. You will need a third party burning software to do as the free ImgBurn, Nero or Roxio. Burn as an image, not in the form of data.

    http://www.ImgBurn.com

    http://Seagate.custkb.com/Seagate/CRM/selfservice/search.jsp?docid=201271 (how-to)

    Boot with the CD that you have done and do a full test of the reader. You will probably need to change the boot order. Your Dell can give you a temporary boot menu if you press F12 as the computer starts. If so, use your arrow key to select the CD drive. Otherwise, press F2 to enter in Setup (BIOS) and change the order of boot on the CD drive first. If the disk fails all physical tests, it must be replaced. Although readers of the laptop cost around $60, you should really consider if it is to put money in such an old machine. You can replace the disk, but the laptop is definitely at the end of its normal life and something else is doomed to failure.

    There is information about the RAM test and other materials here:

    B. retrieve data detach a healthy disk when you are unable to Windows

    1 remove the drive and put it in a box of USB drive or use a USB adapter. Attach it to a computer that is running a working XP/Vista/Windows7 installation. Use the work of Windows Explorer to copy the data to the hard drive of the system to the rescue and burn data on cd or dvd.

    2. you can start the target computer with a Bart PE (if you use XP) or a Linux live CD like Knoppix and retrieve the data in this way. General information about the use of Knoppix for this are:

    You will need a computer with two cd records, which is an engraver of CD/DVD OR a USB stick with a capacity to hold your data OR an external USB hard disk formatted FAT32 (not NTFS) *. Download Knoppix .iso image file and create your bootable CD. If you do this in a previous (XP or Vista) operating system, you will need the third burning like Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn software (Windows 7 can burn .isos natively). Burn as an image, not in the form of data. Then boot with the CD that you created, and Knoppix will be able to see the files in Windows. If you use the USB key or an external hard disk, right-click on its icon (on the desktop) to get its properties and uncheck "read only". Then click on it to open it. Note that the mouse action by default in the window manager used by Knoppix (KDE) is a simple click to open instead of double-click traditional MS Windows. If you want to burn CD/DVDs, use the K3b program.

    * My understanding is that you can now write on NTFS from Linux partition. If you wish to do this, Google for instructions on the use of the NTFS driver.

  • How long does take to load know last good configuration?

    Waited about an hour. How long does take to load know last good configuration?

    It should not take more than he does start normally.  The Configuration of the property last known (LKGC) is a copy of the control set that was used last successfully start the machine, the boot is only considered successful once you log on to the computer.  When you connect successfully on the control set used to start the machine is copied on a numbered control (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSetnnn) the value and the value for LastKnownGood in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Select is updated to represent the LKGC.  Changes that you make after you log on is not registered in the LKGC.

    In general the LKGC is useful when installing hardware or drivers or when incorrectly configured services prevent Windows to start.  On an operational computer the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet represents this set of materials and services.  It may be useful:

  • Windows 7 does not start; Startup Repair won't work; Know last good configuration will not work

    Windows 7 64 bit machine. Automatic Windows updates were installed during the night; has started acting strangely this afternoon.  After an attempt to re-start, got the "Windows Error Recovery" screen with the "Windows did not start. A recent message HW or SW change might be the cause".  When I try to 'Launch Startup Repair' a screen returns but just hangs.  When I try to "Start Windows normally", it brings back me to the Windows error recovery screen.  When I hit f8 for when you start to get the screen "Advanced Boot Options" and try to go into secure Mode or use the last good known Configuration option, each one brings back me to the Windows error recovery screen.

    Any ideas on how to get this resolved?  Thank you!!!

    Hello

    The problem is since it will not run the startup from the Windows 7 disc repair you then you
    need some kind of support, and the cause is likely to be material. A Dell thing you want to do
    is to restore the system back to the factory plug 'IF' possible so it would be a good idea to save the
    data before calling their (possible an another 'IF'). Try to put the hard drive in another computer
    as the 2nd disc (best method) or in an external case USB (less likely to work) and then copy
    data on removable media such as CD, DVD or other external USB drives.

    Good idea to check with the technical support Dell, their online documentation and the Dell forums where he
    perhaps others with the same problem.

    Dell support

    Other choices would be a real store of the computer performing the internal repairs (not the leeks and the glances at one
    Best Buy or other stores). Of course if she has any warranty Dell is the best choice, and
    can be in effect regardless of any warranty.

    I hope this helps.

    What has replaced iPhoto to Yosemite? I need to consolidate my old iPhoto libs.  Older versions of iPhoto do not work on Yosemite and iPhoto is not available on the appstore

    Nothing has replaced iPhoto

    Photos has been added and if you drag an iPhoto library Photos icon in the dock, it will be migrated to PHotos - Photos is a new program and has a learning curve so take the overall view and read the help files

    iPhoto still works too for a while - you need the current version 9.6.1 - if your software is not up to date see can't update iPhoto because it is not available in the App Store

    and the El Captain came out with 1.3 Photos and many new features and bug fixes - you should run it
