Why drive letter external for the reasigns Windows Vista and how to stop it from happening
I have Windows Vista Home Premium with the latest service packs and updates installed on my machine.
From time to time, when I connect the external USB HDD, previously assigned letter of Exchange to another.
After that the media library files and setup do not work properly. I have to manually assign.
Why this is happening and more important How to stop from happening at all in the first place?
Thanks in advance
Windows assigns the next available drive letter when you connect an external drive. During his previous letter assigned is no longer available it will be assigned the next drive letter. I have an external hard drive with three partitions, I assigned the letters X, Y and Z, whenever I connect the drive on my laptop, it will display the letters that are always available.
Change, add, or remove a drive letter

I noticed that the user TrustedInstaller took possession of my PC. He is the owner of most of my Windows files. How to restart my computer and how
prevent this happening again?
I know that I can change of ownership and then each individual file permissions, but it would take two days or something, I can stop this in a simple way or how do I restart my computer?
This user is logged on to Microsoft? I mean if this is the case, then I guess I don't have to worry?
I would appreciate an answer so =)
This is how it is supposed to be.
TrustedInstaller is a built-in account that allows to modify Windows itself, for example during the installation of the updates.
This is to prevent the Windows system files or inadvertently or maliciously crushed.

Essential system for the Microsoft Windows Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1) updates
Hi, I want to know if it is applicable to sp2 as well. I don't know why there is not one for sp2. I have an hpg60 laptop and it does not appear on the page drivers.
It's just an accumulation of the Vista updates. All are included in SP2, so you can forget about it. Simply apply SP2 (as you have done) and start a full MS update and you'll be fine.

How can I identify the name of the invisible file for a backup file successfully to an external hard drive USB2 separate? I use Windows Vista backup program (Service Pack 2), and I need to do backups plus two from other computers on the same external hard drive. To do this, I think I would need to identify each backup file separate I know which file to specify if I need to do a restore.
How can I accomplish this? The program does not seem to give me the ability to specify a file to which to write the backup during a given session files.

Hello
In your Microsoft account. To get your recovery key, go to BitLocker recovery keys.

- Ask someone with administrative privileges on the same PC to unlock with their key.
- If your PC is connected to a domain (usually a computer from work or school), ask a system administrator for your recovery key.
- If you still can't, you will have to reset your PC. Learn how.
