I have an idea of what causes this, as it happens to me as well with my non-aol email. I think it is because many times I use email to notify me of certain things but do not necessarily read the email. For example, when I get an email from a forum, I then make a note to visit that forum. What I physically do is just delete the email. Delete emails from the same sender without reading them enough times, appears to trigger something that indicates those emails are unwanted and then end up in the spam folder.

Pre-install of the old OS doesn't usually last this long. It would usually go like this: - Windows 7 pre-install EOS date (say 6 months after new version GA) - Windows 7 pre-install (OEM Facilitated Downgrade) EOS date 1 year after new version GA. From the get-go there was never an EOS date for either type of install, always set to TBD. Also, there wasn't a spanning downgrade available across 3 versions like there is now. You can get a PC with Windows 7 installed if you buy Windows 10 license. For example, you couldn't get XP installed if you bought Windows 7. Another consideration is the current hardware market. Whoever sets future plans for hardware in the backrooms of the tech industry may well deliver us computers that cannot use Windows 7. We are already seeing that with the Intel 150/170 chipset where the new USB causes Win7 install issues. Although this new thing (look up EHCI handoff) also impacts Linux installs like CentOS. I've already seen 1 motherboard where you cannot disable that setting to install/use those OSes.

I see this as a 2 part problem: 1. You need to copy the selected text to the clipboard or store in a variable. 2. You need to put that variable in the search string. If you do not specify a browser to launch the URL, then your default browser would be used. Here is a sample Google url: https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=notepad So the "hard" part is to determine how to get selected text to appear after q= in the URL.

"Windows 7 will be available to buy for longer than Windows 8" Well really they mean 8.0, if you look at the sheet. Seriously no one pre-installs Windows 8 anymore since 8.1 came out. There would be no point to sell a PC with a fully-patched Windows 8 OS and the first thing the customer got to do would be to update to 8.1 through the Store.

Welcome to the MSFN!

At this time I don't think so. Even KMS licensed Windows 8.1 is still usable after it is out of communication with the KMS server for too long.

Due to the nature of the subject, it shouldn't be a surprise that no one has responded to this thread in 11 years. While I have worked for a company that ran this type of software on employee PCs, they were open about it being there. I never understand companies that treat their employees like children and have to hide things from them.

WIMs operate similarly but you can rebuild them with imagex. Is there a similar tool or method to rebuild RAR or 7ZIP files?

If it is in the WinPE phase, then this can happen. The boot image has a RAM requirement. For Vista RTM/WinPE2 x86, it was generally 512MB and x64 was 1GB. There are some situations where the amount of available RAM may be less than what is physically in the system. Some may be allocated to onboard hardware such as mass storage or video controller. Other RAM issues I've seen with Vista's PE is where the RAM is faulty or failing, or in some rare cases the timings are wrong (relabelled memory) or (on certain hardware) the timings are not matched. If this was during the HDD boot phase (2nd stage) then RAM wouldn't be so much of an issue.

There was some registry hack that could be done in the Preview versions that would allow you to change the edition from Ultimate to Pro or Home Premium (RTM i guess). It was basically a way to trick Setup into allowing an in-place upgrade to be permitted. I can definately think of valid reasons for doing this type of thing, but at a risk of potential system instability.

I never really used that site. Maybe once or twice during XP times. Wasn't that one based on user submission? Hopefully it comes back, seems like a waste if they just removed it after all the work done with it.

Oh yes, I have previously used that method before. It would just be a pain to have to do a lot of work just for one program.

Then tell me how a user can, but cannot "go down edition" according to you, downgrade from W7U to W7HP?! There is a difference between what is designed/intended and what is physically/technically possible.

Can you post a link to the thread you found?

I ran into a situation where I need to use a DOS program but it will not run if himem.sys is loaded. Unfortunately, I (likely) have other things that require it. This is my config.sys [COMMON]DOS=HIGHSHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM C:\ /P /E:512DEVICE=himem.sysdevice=ifshlp.sysIs it possible, via .bat, to unload himem.sys so that the program can run if it is selected?

The main page for it just redirects to the generic Windows page. This error page shows it is temporarily unavailable. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/compatibility/Error

Windows isn't designed to go down edition, but only up edition.

Well the summary of the article states that versions prior to Windows 2000 wouldn't be vulnerable. In fact, the security issue was found with the TrueCrypt driver in VeraCrypt on Windows 10.

What were you installing it from?

It is hard to tell what your exact question is.

Yes we are aware.

Office 2010 uses an XML or MSP file. https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee656738(v=office.14).aspx

The link that was originally posted contained files that are not allowed for redistribution. We do not operate in the gray area here.

Windows 8 has "Core" and Pro versions. There was confusion along with this because "Windows 8 Core" was the internal name for Windows 8. There are these two consumer editions: Windows 8/8.1 (Windows 7 Home Premium replacement) Windows 8/8.1 Pro (Windows 7 Pro replacement) For Windows 10, they decided to call the prior "Core" product Home. So you have these editions: Windows 10 Home Windows 10 Pro
