Windows Vista - my worksheets had icons for word documents or installation of programs icons
When starting my computer, why Office five of the six albums icons for spread sheet documents appear as icons for word documents and the icon for the sixth broadcast sheet paper appears as one of an executable program? My computer is infected?
Hi VidaFenton,
(1) remember to make changes?
(2) is this problem limited to spreadsheets?
Method 1: Run the fixit available in the links below and check if that makes a difference-Worth to try
Difficulty of broken desktop shortcuts and common system maintenance tasks
Note: FixIt would attempt to recover bad sectors on the hard disk, in the course of this process there are chances of DATA loss from that particular area.
Method 2: If you suspect a virus infection, run Microsoft Security scanner (MSS) to any threat and try to correct

If the question is limited to spreadsheets, you can post your query on Office Forum

How to get Vista recovery Media or the Vista recovery Partition on your computer back to factory settings.
There is no Vista free download legal available.
Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.
Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.
See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.
Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...
Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.
They will tell you how to do this.
Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.
If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):
Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.
At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

I only see Windows Vista SP1 in retail and OEM, SP2 must be downloaded. Windows Vista Ultimate SP2 never come for sale at retail or OEM like integrated single install?
Hello
Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.Unfortunately, Windows Vista is not available for sales that Windows Vista has been replaced by Windows 7 and Windows 8 (mainstream support ended on April 10, 2012). As a result, he was arrested in SP1. But, the extended support is available until 2017, then you can find updates and SP2 is a part of this update. -
I learned from a few sources online that I can get a 'upgrade' for the version OEM of Windows Vista Home Premium 32 - bit for Windows 7 free. Is this true? Should I participate in forums feedback for Windows, etc. in order to acquire such a valuable product?
If not, is there another 'economic' way to get a copy of windows 7?
Really appreciate your time in answering my question.
Despite what you may have "competent" wrong, there is no "free" upgrade to Windows 7. You can buy Windows 7 from the Microsoft Store. Carey Frisch

How can I get a valid Windows Vista Home Premium product key for my Acer Aspire 5050?
My hard drive failed in my Acer Aspire 5050. Replaced, reinstalled Windows Vista Home Premium with the appropriate product key, but Microsoft says that it is invalid. Microsoft wants to buy me a new copy of Windows & there is no available from Acer for my laptop recovery disk. What can I do?
The product key on the bottom of the laptop is an OEM product key. This product key does not work for the commercial versions of the operating system. The original shipping charge might work on the system without entering a product key.
If you did not, or are no longer able to get the recovery media, you will have to buy an operating system of your choice for the installation.
