Windows XP two entries in the start menu. I followed the program from one to the other files?

More of a problem of operating systems XP and how to bind the program files for the new version

My system was not properly initialize (continulally reseting) to repair the fault that I had to make a form of repair of the windows installation CD. I now have version 2 of the windows XP operating system (host1 and windows 2) on my computer. Windows 2 is the version that works (constantly does not restart) ok, but all my program files, documents, etc. are still linked to the old version (windows 1) and therefore do not apear in the start menu. Is it possible to have these appear in the windows start menu 2, so I don't need to reload all my programs and also allow me to remove this old version that has been corrupted and not lose my files and applications. Thanks in advance.

Hi Bill,

It seems that you have reinstalled Windows XP on a different partition. In this case, you will not be able to use the installer on another.

You will need to reinstall all the programs on the new facility and also, redo the settings.

You can follow the below mentioned article to remove the invalid entry in the start menu.

  • Whenever I have move photos from one folder to another file, the picture is no longer accessible.

    I use Windows XP - perfectly up-to-date.  Whenever I have move photos from one folder to another file, the picture is no longer available and cannot be removed with using unlocker.  This has happened for several years.  I copy pictures and new folders whenever I want to move them, but sometimes I forget and move them and then I lose the picture I'm trying.  I also noticed that there is a strange file that opens in the trash that won't let me remove it without using unlocker. These files start with "Dd" followed be a number.  When I delete these use unlocker, another will appear the a different number on this subject.  It is a very maddening problem.  It is not possible for me to do a system restore because it lasts for quite awhile.  Please help - I'm tired of losing pictures that I can't replace.  Thank you for your help.

  • Windows registry is linked to the .dll files? HELP several BSoD and browse... crashed during post! for the love of God

    Must be quick, title says it all
    Windows registry is responsible for the .dll files?
    SFC shows SEVERAL DLLs not missing, no installation CD.
    Not good recovery CD.
    I have the copy of the registry before changes but online before browser support multiple and many BSOD.
    Will post now as browser crashed early in post and the 5 th time in half an hour.

    Thanks for the reply Elizabeth23, but I finally found the part of the SFC.

    SFC showed 167 system missing files - if you continue to press Cancel > continue every time SFC tells you to put in your Windows installation CD eveeentually happen to you at the end of his race - and I ran 3 times and each time got 167.
    Now I had some of the 'missing' located in System32 .dll files, but some were also in i386 and the drivercache but I had not located a bit; but I knew that something is not right I had found some system 'missing' files and after that a few hunting came across a site that said to check the registry key
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\
    CurrentVersion\Setup

    and under SourcePath my entry is a file that does not exist 'Temp' so I changed the entry to C:\WINDOWS rebooted and ran SFC/scannow and it scanned without stopping.
    Weird as the registry key was in a file that is no Temp because I ran many SFC
    times in the last 2 months and it always scanned all the files in the operating system without a hitch...

    My computer is still BSoDing out, had two after SFC took place without a hitch.

  • How to add an entry to the TNSNAMES file. ORA?

    Why is - that point to a host to 10.121.42.81? Your output of lsnrctl shows the listener running on ablora01.internal.XXX.com (at 10.121.42.100) is tuned for 'test1 '.

    Test1 and bochum are running on the same computer?
    If so, that was the 10.121.42.100 machine?

    Your output said no listener when you tnsping test1. This means that there is no listener clocked at 10.121.42.81.

    And my real goal is to allow a program to 10.121.42.81
    to connect to the instance "test1".

    The ip address (or host name) in tnsnames.ora specifies where the database . It has nothing to do with where lives the client (your app).

  • Get a preview of image files but not the other files

    In the Finder (or an alternative file manager) is there a way to show previews of image files, but not for the other files?

    With the image files, it will display a preview. With other types of file, a preview is useless and its best to see a standard icon indicating the file type.

    Any decent file on all Linux distributions browser lets you choose Preview vs standard icon based on case by case basis depending on the file type. I can't see how to proceed in the Finder (or the various alternatives as TotalFinder). How can I me Finder for this?

    The thumbnails, you mean? I don't think that there is a 'decent' solution for OS x. But then again, I don't know everything.

  • Whenever the computer is started, two different styles of start menu appear on the screen, divided vertically from left to right.

    Original title: is this monitor or windows?

    This condition began while I was running xp sp 3.

    I worked in google earth at the time.

    I don't remember exactly what happened.

    But now, every time I start windows, two different styles of the start menu

    appear on the screen, divided vertically from left to right.

    The menu on the right can only be extended to about half of the control panel to the left.

    The menu on the left can grow to the right once the right image has been reduced.

    I tried to reset the start menu in the program settings without success.

    Anyone have any ideas?
