Hi

Can't seem to get this service pack to install on Windows Vista SP1 (french)

I disabled vLite in the registry because at first the installer considered that some update was missing

Now it installs but gives up before finishing and states that SP2 couldn't be installed
It suggests that I execute hotfix KB947821-v35-x86, which I do but this just installs itself and brings no improvement

any ideas ?

thanks

I have a x64 shell extension for the context menu, which works fine. Only problem is; the icon does not show on the context menu. I have tried both InsertMenu and InsertMenuItem, but the icon does not show. Is there something else I have to do to make the icon appear in Windows Vista forward?

User was tricked at home, he took the whole bait and hook, paid $ to a fake Microsoft person and allowed them on his computer. Anyway after running some tools and removing malicious malware he still has on his desktop a fake phone number that shows on his Task bar area. This is a Vista O.S. how do I remove?
I will be reformatting the computer in a  couple week.

Hi,
I have a legacy application that is currently running on an old Vista machine, this machine is on its last legs and needs to be replaced, however the software vendor wants a silly amount of money for re-installing it onto a new machine. So...
I thought, if I could clone the machine onto a newer PC (dissimilar hardware) that would be a way round it for now, but, I am assuming when I do this that the OEM copy of Vista will go non-genuine and then wont reactivate. My question is, if i was to buy a retail version of Vista, could I re-activate the cloned OEM with the retail key as it would then in theory be licensed (as far as paying for it goes).
Hope this is clear! Any help gratefully received.
Cheers
Andrew

Hi

One of our customers need to give some few users the availability to install software under Windows 10 (Build 1703) as they are developers. The solution that most of my senior engineers are recommending is to create two users. One normal user and the other local administrator that have no other permission in the domain.

Two other engineers are telling to do it KIS (keep it simple). They both recommend to create one user, give it local administrator permissions and enable UAC. After they told me also to educate the users to be careful when the authentication prompt appears.

What would you recommend me?

Many thanks in advance.

I have a user who has a Vista computer.   Yes I know they should toss it, but they cannot right now.  The computer was recently re-installed with a 32 bit OEM dvd.  The installation went very smoothly.   We were able to download Firefox, Chrome, Malwarebytes and Apache open Office and install them.  But when it comes to things like CCleaner and Superantispyware, we go to Downloads and double click but the wheel spins for two seconds goes away and nothing happens.  I have tried some things like checking the exefile, and that seems to be okay.  Any ideas?

Am using Paragon 2014 Free Backup and Restore to burn a RMB disc for a 32bit Vista system but can't uncheck the box next to USE  ADK/WAIK  in order to do so.  It tells me at the end that I need to download that ADK program from MS in order to complete the process but I do not want to do that.  Is there some easier way to do a recovery disc as I do in my 64bit systems in this one?  

I am asking this for a friend who will be doing a Windows 7 upgrade soon on his Vista system and he wants a backup of his system on a external hard drive in case something goes wrong and needs the RMB disc to access that drive.  Thanks for any help you can give me.

Hi,

I have Windows 10 laptop i attached one big extended monitor to right hand side of the laptop.

Refer from [IANA #937566]  :
IANA   "Mac assigned mistakenly managed by IEEE; IPs wrongly assigned on vista  specially range by vista maker " 

*** Here IANA indicating manufacture vista is the computer system or Microsoft os shall be contacted ?



The DUID having been used by two of above they who  mistakenly assigned IPs on the vista conserving IP ranges . [RFC  1918 where point accessed into ] ? see the screenshot.  The other hand, detectable  running DHCPv4  mac 1 , and with DHCPv6.DUID mac 2 is one intruder  device device  ( ipconfig/ all there are two mac address on two dhcp server)

The modem.isp changed times could not be able to modify or taken back  the gateway address for the connectional  device , the unknown mac device by arp detected . It not modem , not router nor any mine peripherals .

Both of ips or router vender in case if would not make this wrong connection and unsupportable be corrective, [Cisco, dhcp via automatically can do nothing, isp fiber opt modem no wireless offering] Internet Engineering Force or any other organizations or associations would take account on this reporting ?


Please help or advise where right place  forwarded to take account of this which followed all about around connections years.

Any questions you have about the use of addresses in Vista should be directed to the manufacturers of Vista.

I have two folders I need to move from one system to another. When I try to send the enter folder the window is missing the name of the folder. I can click on all the files inside from images to word documents and the name of each will show up in the file name window.

I've tried creating a name and it fails. When the folders were created and placed on the desktop I created names for them. Then moved, dragged, pasted file inside over time.

There should be a way without each individual file themselves as there are over 200 in the two folders.
Drop Box is not an option. I tried that with a neighbor and it was a disaster.

Well I can use a thumb drive but I'll leave the question here anyway. I assume I'll hear Drop Box or Zip. Never had success with either one.

The file in the downloads folder is 350MB and shows as a zip file. To the left of the file is a MS Word icon.

I dragged the file to the desktop and right click does not get me "extract."

It's a book about WW1 soldiers 1917-1919. I want to print the photo of an ancestor. I did get a message saying the "origin" (or the original owner) has blocked any editing. I'm not trying to edit just look. It must be able to be viewed because a distant relative posted the photo on a website. Another relative is skeptical that it is their relative so I wanted to print the entire page from the hard back book that is digitized (?) for the internet.

How to open a zip file using Windows Vista? Will it open automatically with Windows 7?
