Jan 31, 2013I want to install windows 8 in my windows 7 pc, but I want to backup the windows 7 OS to an external HDD in case I don't like Windows 8 and want to reinstall the Windows 7 OS. I've done a file backup with Norton 360. But, Windows 7 won't let me do an OS backup. I think Norton 360 took over the backup function, and it seems it can't back the OS up. How can I backup the W7 OS? A third party backup for the OS?

May 24, 2012I am Every time I need to redo my system, I totally reformat my hard drive, re-install the OS and then re-install all my software. Maybe this is the only way to do it but is there a way to re-install my OS (Win 7 Pro) and not have to reinstall the software? In other words, I guess I am talking about a partition for the OS and the rest for the software? If this is possible, then by only installing the OS, how will my programs show back up? Maybe I am not getting the picture but someone told me this can be done, thus saving me much time.

Aug 2, 2011I know how to clone my entire system by going to Control Panel, Backup and Restore, and Create a System Image, but this ostensibly creates a duplicate of OS state, and the entire drive, data and all (for me around 500 GB).I also know how to just backup data alone, but what I don't know how to do is backup just the OS and all installations (separate from raw, individual data and media files), so in the event of disk failure, I can simply reload the old system and programs (but not media files).

May 15, 2011Ok this is a question I get when working on computers and the only recourse is an Operating System reinstall or in the case where I am advising someone on a heavy upgrade/new purchase. Me personally I don't really care why, I just need something simple to tell people when they ask me besides saying "Well you can't!"Why is it that when you reinstall Windows 7 or move from Windows XP (98,95 etc.) to Windows 7 (Vista, ya lets not go there) there is no way to keep your programs installed?

May 5, 2009I'm looking to upgrade three computers running a Windows 7 beta build (two on 7077, one on 7068) to the new RC build. I've heard that it's best to do a clean install rather than an upgrade. I've also seen Microsoft describe ways to backup and restore files and settings when performing a clean install.
The biggest hassle for me lies in having to re-install all of the programs on the three computers. So is there any backup solution that would allow me to automatically restore/reinstall my programs after performing a clean install of Windows? Or can this just not be done with a clean install?

Oct 8, 2012I've several users (windows 7 & XP) who have recently discovered a problem.After reboot, they were unable to open PDF's. I checked - and found Adobe reader gone.It reinstalls perfectly - and then dissapears again when rebooted....To date, I haveRun RKill, Unhide, Malwarebytes, F-Secure (the installed antivirus on the machines). ALL come up perfectly clean - nothing at all to report.I then ran ccleaner, just to try cleaning up the environment. Still didn't sort it, but that TOO dissapeared after reboot so it seems to be NOT limited to Acrobat reader.

Oct 21, 2010een running Windows since 3.0, and am fairly comfortable poking around with anything under the hood. I've just bought my first Windows 7 computer, and it has me scratching my head on a few issues. I've done a search of the forums, but had no luck with one specific issue.I'm running Home Premium, and I have My Admin account and 2 separate user accounts. I install all programs using the Admin account. Some programs, such as Office 2010 and Adobe Reader, installed easily with the programs listed under each user's "All Programs" area on the start menu. Other programs installed and showed up under Admin's "All Programs", but will not show up in the other users' "All Programs". None of these programs asked if I wanted to install for just the active user account or for all accounts, they just installed.
I can still run these programs by doing a search and executing, so I have access to them. I know I can create shortcuts or pin them to the taskbar, but I really don't like the clutter. How can get these programs to show up under "All Programs" for all users?

View 2 Replies View RelatedPrograms Installed In E:\Program Files Run As X32
Jun 23, 2012Half a year ago my laptop's hard disk's clusters began to fail, so I finally had to change it with a Western Digital Scorpio Black 750 GB - 7200rpm (WD7500BPKT).
When reinstalling Windows 7 Home Premium x64, I decided to dedicate the C:\ unit to the OS "only", and E:\ to programs and files of all sorts.
I've then installed all of my programs by sending them to their respective folders, E:\Program Files and E:\Program Files (x86) . But I'm now noticing all of them are running in x32 mode! The only programs running in x64 are those forcedly installed into the C:\Program Files folder (which my Italian OS calls C:\Programmi, although program installers install into C:\Program Files).
Is it that Windows isn't recognizing any Program Files folders but the default ones in C:\?

Feb 20, 2012I've got a laptop with a partition on the main drive that holds some of the programs that came with the laptop (fingerprint reader, webcam software, etc.), but it's a 28 gig partition, and it's only using 2. I was wondering how I would go about removing the partition, but keeping the programs on the it. Will it work if I just copy-paste them over to the main drive and delete the partition? This is probably a stupid question, but I figure it's better to ask and know than guess and mess something up. There's also a folder in the partition called drivers, so my guess would be the aforementioned copy-paste technique won't work.

Feb 21, 2012Bit of a weird one here, I recently restored an old Dell Dimension 8250 to run windows 7 pro 32bit. It has 1gb of ram and i've heard its capable enough. The installation went fine and everything worked for a couple of days, but now any non original programs i install appcrash straight away eg. Firefox, daemon tools, utorrent.. Control panel wont let me uninstall them so i have to delete their folders and use control panel to remove them from list. Then i reinstall and it will work until a few restarts of the system.
Also it used to connect to the wireless but now it only sees my nieghbours networks and not mine which is weird as all other laptops in my house can connect fine?
