The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Transferring software from one PC to another

Asked by Kryten in Miscellaneous Software

Hi everybody

I'm hoping you can help me out with this issue. A friend's laptop is in desperate need of an overhaul. It's slow and has several annoying pop ups and spyware which just wont go away. I've bought more memory to help speed it up, but I also want to reinstall Windows XP back to factory settings to get rid of the annoyances. However, the major problem is that she has some software that was loaded onto it for her, but she doesn't have the installation discs.

Is there anyway i can save the programs to a CD or an external hard drive and then reinstall them after I've installed Windows? I appreciate that software installs itself into the registry and other places, so I don't imagine that a simple case of copying the program files across will work. But if there is any other way that the software can be saved, I'd be forever grateful.

Cheers
