Windows 7 Pro - automatic update issues.

• Windows 7 Pro upgrade Activation issue.

  Windows 7 Pro upgrade Activation issue. I bought a real upgrade of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. In reading, there is no way I could actually update my current installation of XP and keep all the settings, I decided to just reformat my hard drive and install windows 7 as a custom install fees. Now, I can't activate Windows 7 because it claims that I do not have a version of windows installed on this hard drive. Is it possible (armed with my XP and Windows 7 product keys) I can activate my software? Or should I go through the hassle to format my drive again, stick XP on it simply to crush it with Windows 7 so I can activate it? Feels like a bit of an oversight for XP to 7 plants of valuation. Thanks for any help you can offer!

  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.

• Update Windows Defender KB915597 automatic update and other sources.

  It seems that, after each automatic update of Windows Defender on my computer at home another updated appears another update showing about 3 days more later from "another source."  It should be?  The two definition links are link ID = 52661.  All definitions are different and my computer has been updated July 28,2010-July 30, 2010.  It has been also updated for the same KB915597 on May 27, 2010 and may 31, 2010.  I do not understand why the KB is downloaded several times automatically and also "other source".

  TIP: Give your full version of Windows (for example, WinXP SP3;) Windows XP 64 - bit SP2; Vista SP1; Vista 64 - bit SP2; Win7; Win7 64 bit) when you post in a forum or a newsgroup.

  Left to itself, Windows Defender will be auto-updated itself twice a week (usually the Monday/Tuesday and Friday/Saturday). These updates are updates "Other Source" you will find listed in the update history.

  With Microsoft Update [1] as source of update by default, you will be offered that Defender updates when you run a manual check for updates. Here are the optional updates: If you choose to not install one, Defender will always auto-updated itself by what precedes.

  ====================================
  [1] "what are the differences between Windows updates and automatic updates from Microsoft Updates?

  "While Windows Update provides updates specifically for Windows, Microsoft Update expands the service to download and install updates for other software from Microsoft, such as Microsoft Office and Windows Live and Silverlight [and Microsoft Security Essentials]. Update automatic is a feature that allows you to configure your PC to automatically download and install updates using each service, making it easy and convenient for you to keep your current Windows PC. "[Source: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/windowsupdate/FAQ.mspx]

• Color Laser JEt MFP M477fd Pro: automatic update of ruined printers print

  My new laser Jet worked very well until I followed the instructions on the printer for an automatic update. Now print is ruined. Page layout is described in gray, and look bad color photos. This happened DIRECTLY after that I said yes to the screen to update printer on the printer itself. I did not change my Mac.

  I tried closing printer, computer shutdown, and then restart the printer, then restart the computer.

  The Configuration report (can barely read.) Firmware Datacode says: 20160331, which is apparently the most recent printing for my model software.

  I'm on a Mac 10.10

  Color Laser Jet Pro MFP M477fdw, bought end of 2015.

  The printer was so easy to set up and worked wonders for 200 pages that I sent to him so far, until I said yes to an update. Wish really to say yes to that, but I just assumed it would work as well as everything else.

  Thank you for your help to solve this.

  After trying countless things, including uninstalling and reinstalling the printer and download the latest driver, I called Technical Support. The number is on the internet, not on HP. 800-334-5144 where you need it. They continue to try to trick you online, but eventually, you get to someone who can help.

  When I described the print results, I was getting, she had me do the cleaning Page, 3 x and 3 x color calibration, which corrects the problem.

  The problem of updating firmware with the trainer, is what I * think * she said.

  If your printer works fine... DON'T let NOT download an update.

  It has been long since I've owned a laser printer. Lesson learned. Thank you, Natasha.

  Everything clean and tune up programs see this automatic update is disabled but not can solve my problem...

  Hello again,

  All your suggestions did not help, but when I put the PC in the language of owners with Vistalizator, the problem has resolved.
  Maybe the problem wasn't there until I changed the language of computers, but it's still strange that the problem came up, then just because of language change.
  Anyway, my problem is solved and I thank you for your time.
  Have a great day and thank you, Sammy.

• How to fix my computer crashing whenever windows is an automatic update?

  How can I fix it?

  Assuming that McAfee Security Center is NOT yet installed:

  McAfee (and Norton) applications are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself.

  1. download the McAfee Consumer Product Removal, save it to your desktop tool: http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe

  2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

  3. right click on the file that you saved in #1 above and select run as administrator to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

  4. do a clean install of McAfee Security Center.

  -Online if you purchased your software directly from McAfee, go to https://home.mcafee.com/Secure/Protected/Login.aspx to connect and download your software.

  -Online DELL users should go to https://us.mcafee.com/root/login.asp?affid=105

  5 IMPORTANT! Manually & repeatedly updated McAfee Security Center until you get a "not more than updated" or similar prompt.

  6. open Internet Explorer (only) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737 & run the difficulty.

  7. now, open Internet Explorer (only) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058 & race that secure it in modes AGGRESSIVE then by DEFAULT. [1]

  8 restart a last time & test.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  [1] full Disclosure: the difficulty operating in AGGRESSIVE mode will remove your update history but not the list of installed updates.

• Windows 8 Pro OEM update problem

  Hi all

  I recently bought an Acer P3 pre-installed with Microsoft Windows 8 single language tablet. Since I need to use some of the functionality available only with the Pro version, I bought a Windows 8 Pro OEM license. Since there is no way to reinstall Windows 8 at the beginning, I use the 'add new features' upgrade. Apparently the license does not work since it is a complete Pro 8 license and features requires the Windows 8 Pack Pro license instead. So, I make a call to Microsoft Tech Line and full of hope that they can change the license Pro Pack. After 2 hours of curiosity and the final tip, pleading for a change (it is not possible to Exchange or refund from the store I bought because the seal is already open), they will not always be allowed to change and leave me with RM 414 (~ 129 USD) in the sewers.

  Is it possible for me to upgrade to Windows 8 Pro with this product key, and I really hope there is some flexibility on the part of Microsoft to help me in this situation since I already bought a Microsoft product with a higher value than the Pro Pack Upgrade. I would be happy for you to show my Bill and photo of the if product key requires Microsoft.

  Thank you and looking forward to any kind of answers.

  Unfortunately, add functionality does not support OEM System Builder licenses. You should have bought the Pro Pack or Pro Windows 8 details of upgrade.

  Your only other option because you can not return it is again a custom installation of the currently installed Windows 8 SL. Backup the current Windows 8 install before do you.

  First, create a backup of your installation of Windows 8 on an external hard drive:

  Then, create a repair disk:

• Windows makes the automatic update and my settings are only for download.

  Windows 7 - I've always had my updates the setting that allows them to download, but I chose to install them.  These past few weeks I've noticed that if I refuse and install these updates that they automatically install themselves.  I like to choose how to upgrade usually one at a time, so if there is a problem I know what update caused it.  But in recent weeks a notice that he has downloaded the updates look bad.  So when a few days where I don't bother updating automatically they settle.  I checked my setting of many times, and my settings are correct.  So why are my rules being ignored?

  Once the updates are downloaded, all that is left restarts to install updates

  Some updates that don't require not a reboot will probably install

  Hardly a way to install an update at the same time as you want too.

  I suggest you these parameters personally if install one at a time is your preference

  These settings will be updated also exclude recommended to be mixed in the important section, recommended updates cause most of the problems.

• Windows 7 PRO GP update error

  We have a very specific problem

  We have a DC DC & installed in all offices (Windows 2008R2) primary school. The domain name is abc.com for all offices and between the DC replication occur between office arrive without problem.

  Customers of each office gets authenticated to the domain controller in the competent office.

  But for a group policy update, it gives an error like below

  'Political work could not be updated successfully.  The following errors were encountered: the processing of Group Policy failed.  Windows tried to read the file -\sysvol\\Policies\{BD732AAF-016F-11D2-945F-00C04Fb984F9}\gpt.inigo to a domain controller and has failed.  Group Policy settings cannot be applied until this event is resolved. This problem may be transient and can be caused by one or more of the following:

  (a) name resolution/connectivity to the current domain controller.
  (b) latency file Replication Service (a file created on another domain controller has not replicated on the current domain controller).
  (c) the customer (DFS, Distributed File System) has been disabled.

  The error occurs only on some clients.

  We are able to Ping, connect to the local domain controller and the client gets the IP address of the local domain controller and gets also authenticated by the local DC to log on.

  On the PC, which gives an error if we try to ping domain name - abc.com, it returns the ip address of the ms office to another, not the local domain controller.
