I'd like to be able to use two Users simultaneously--that is, two Users on my PC, which has Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit. My hope is to not have to switch between Users (I use each User for different purposes). Can I keep both Users open AND SIMULTANEOUSLY Accessible--I mean, accessible at the same time?
When i attempt to switch users I have a screen displaying all of my user accounts but the cursor freezes and I can't use the mouse or keyboard. I must power down and then power up to reboot.
I have migrated my Windows 7 OS to a SSD, but my Users folder is too large to migrate. I am going to set a junction between C:Users on my SSD and F:Users on the HDD where my OS was originally. The instructions I have read indicate that I need to rename the C:Users folder in order to set the junction, since it will not work if there is still a folder named C:Users. However, there is no ""Rename" option available when I right-click on C:Users. In fact, several of the folders in the root directory of C: have no "Rename" option.
If I want to record sound from PC I use Stereo Mixer and If I want to record sound from me I use Mic But can I do both at the same time?I've got Realtek HD?
I have a Windows 8 laptop. Earlier today I uninstalled AVG free. I declined to restart, deciding I'd restart later. I then installed Avast Antivirus - and when I tried to run Avast, everything froze, and I had to turn the laptop off. When I logged back in to windows, I'm met just the mouse on a black screen. If I log into safe mode, there's the outline of my desktop, and I can run some programs, but most files are inaccessible & I can't get online, the windows taskbar won't open etc, and after a while a blue screen with text appears and the computer restarts.I can't think of any cause other than the antivirus installation. My question is, can you think of any way to undo this without just wiping the computer? I've managed to burn some personal files to a DVD but would still prefer not to go back to square one.
i have a USB Internet Connection and a WI-FI connection. i want to use both of them simultaneously. i know i can't stack their download and upload speed, but atleast i can download 2 files at the same time without having one internet connection doing all the burden. i think it's called load balancing or whatsoever. and it's built into windows 7? but whenever i try to connect the USB internet connection, my WI-FI suddenly goes "No internet connection". but it is still connected.
Is it possible to use DHCP dynamic ip and static ip in one nic at the same time ? Like in xp via regedit ? Is it disabled to use them simultanously in Windows 7, one nic?
Google is full of "alternative config" suggestions, but they aren't what i'm looking for. (since it is for the "if DHCP isn't available" situation)
I have wifi connection of one service provider and Lan Connection of another service provider... Can i use both connection simultaneously on my laptop? having window 7. They both have automatic configuration of IPs
I have a bit of a canundrum. I have 2 mobile broadband connections, one for my computer and one for my iPhone. It's basically the same subscription over here. I live a bit off the grid so I can't get any DSL connection unfortunately.So they both have a limited download rate and my 10 gigs each month dries up pretty fast, and then I'm left with a 15kb/s connection on both devices. Now I've used my iPhone as a wifi router to access it and download through that connection on my pc, meanwhile the USB dongle 3g connection has been there and I've just assumed that they work together to bring me information, but obviously that doesn't happen. Now I realize this won't do a lot, but over here it's a doubling in bandwidth, and from 15 to 30 kb/s is quite a jump.
I have a router with one ethernet port and one usb port. but i don't use that usb port. I use a ethernet switch to connect my 2 computers and the router. I can share data between 2 PC without any problem. but the problem is i can't use broadband in both pc simultaneously, when one PC is using broadband then in other PC when I'm connecting broadband it says that the router is busy and then shows error 678. please help me to use broadband in those PC simultaneously.
I am using windows 7 ultimate. I want to use the 3g internet and the ADSL connection together for better speeds. Is it possible? If yes, how do I do that?
I want to use Carbonite to create an online backup and Windows 7 Backup to create a system image on an external hard drive. Can I do both without causing problems?
I have LAN connection and according to my Gateway of 192.168.100.1, i can use any IP within the range of 192.168.100.1 - 192.168.102.255I want to host a VerliHub on my laptop at an IP 192.168.101.1For all other purposes like connecting to local CS or DOTA servers, connecting to my Hub which i will be hosting, connecting to Internet, I would like to use another IP say for example 192.168.101.2I m not concerned about the IP that i get from the Main router through the ISP while using internet access and neither am i concerned with what the DHCP provides the router. I am just concerned about the usage of 2 different IP addresses from the same laptop over LAN.If i can host the hub at 1 IP and access it from another IP through my laptop, then kindly let me know how to do it.
I have HP DV4 Pavillion core i3 with Windows7 operating system.I would like to know if we could use the inbuilt speakers and headphone simultaneously forexample...headphone for voice chat and inbuilt speakers for music playing.
I'm trying to record my cell phone messages onto my computer as mp3's. All the audio capture software i've found will do this but, not at the same time 'play' the line in audio (which i need to hear how to control my voice mail system).I can't use a splitter on the audio as it's a crappy old phone and the output is pretty low as-is.
I plugged at cable into my PC and connected the cable to the PC-In port on a TV. I can simultaneously display the same program on the PC and TV. I would like to run Open Office Writer on the PC and Google Chrome on the TV. How can this be done?
I just installed a new 64 gig SSD in my computer. I also have a 2T secondary hard drive.The SSD is not big enough to contain all the stuff that will eventually be in "My documents",i.e. under "users" so I need to move the users directory to my secondary hard drive but havewindows behave as it were in its original location.I did some research and found the following technique which seemed plausible (and several people said it worked for them)
1. Install windows normally. 2. After install, boot from installation disk. 3. Get into the command prompt by clicking "repair". 4. Use robocopy to copy c:users to d:users. The command line should be: robocopy c:users d:users /mir /xj /copyall 5. Verify all files copied successfully. 6. Delete c:users. Command line should be: rmdir /s /q c:users 7. Delete c:documents and settings. Command line should be: rmdir "c:documents and settings" 8. Create junction to new users directory. Command line should be: mklink /j c:users d:users 9. Create junction for the old "documents and settings". Command line should be: mkdir /j "c:documents and settings" d:users 10. Restart computer.
Note:When in recovery mode the disk drives end up with different drive letters than what the normally have.Consequently my SSD drive which is "C" became "E" and my hard drive which is "D" became "C". Confusing, but I adjusted the above commands to reflect this.All seemed to go well until I rebooted. The computer booted up fine, but when I entered my password to log in windows complained that it could not find my profile. Since I could not log in at all I was forced to re-install windows. Supposedly, this is doable and I NEED to do it asap as my SSD will not hold all the stuff that will eventually be in "users".
I am cleaning a laptop out and i created a brand new user name. I deleted the other 2 users using the control passwords2.
So the machine starts and i select the user. Process usage is very high and it says 50, but actual user shows about 9. I click show processes from all users and i find the culprit as well as 50 processes. I deleted the users so there shouldnt be that option.
Why is there more processes if this is the only user, why does it even have the option?
I will if I have to manually delete them, although I'm not sure what other files may still be around on my drive that are located in Users/All Users that are redundant any recommended programs that I could depend on for this task ?
I want to save a file to multiple drives, simultaneously. RAID can join multiple drives, as far as I know, you can't have a temporary RAID setup, whereas, you have an external drive that is attached temporarily, how ever long temporarily is, save the file which is saved to the RAID, when you don't want the drive to be attached to a RAID you can stop the RAID, whenever, and it acts like a regular drive.
I have windows XP mode installed on Window 7 Enterprise and running Windows XP ofcorce. I need to connect my laptop to wired network and in some time to connect wireless for XP mode using. What I mean : I want to use wired internet for my Windows 7 and in same time wireless network for windows XP in XP mode that is running. This I need because those two windows need to be connected in different networks.
In win7 64 (desktop) I can't enable speakers and headphones to work simultaneously: it's one or the other (very annoying). (IDT Audio drivers ok) In Vista they worked perfectly together.
My father replaced his Windows 98 machine with a new computer running Windows 7.He's currently on 32-bit ultimate, but we could change versions if needed.He's really hoping there's some way to force Windows 7 into a single user mode, primarily so C:usersAll Users, Default User, Public, and his own user are merged into one. It's absolutely driving him nuts the way it is.
We have 5 accounts on our computer, and some of the kids don't log off, they just switch users.. I want to log them off from either the admin account or the user choice login screen..

I have 2 users defined to my W7 computer, lets say Jack (administrator) and Jill (normal user). Both users have had their "My Documents" moved to a second disk drive E: as "Jack's Documents" and "Jill's Documents".
Recently (I first noticed it on 26th August) both users started to see two "My Documents" folders on the E: drive in Windows Explorer. One contains Jack's files and folders, the other Jill's files and folders. I'm sure (but have no proof) that Jack used to see "My Documents" and "Jill's Documents", and Jill used to see "My Documents" and "Jack's Documents".
I've searched for information about this problem but can only find examples for duplicate "My Documents" folders for a single user.
There's something very basic about "sharing" that I'm misunderstanding. Does the term "sharing" mean sharing with other computers on the network?
If so, then how do you share folders with another user on the same computer? Here's an example: Each of my sons has a Standard user account on the same computer. So 'A' can't access 'B's files, and 'B' can't access 'A's files. They want to be able to share certain folders, like pictures and music.
They could simply copy folders they want to share to the Public user folder, but that's not a practical solution. How do users on the same computer share files and folders? Is it possible to put restrictions on sharing ('B' can view some of 'A's photos, but he can't edit them, etc.)? There's got to be an easier way than fiddling with access permissions, which often ends up with unintended consequences.
I use my desktop as a recording studio PC some of the time, and those DAW programs need a LOT of resources. That's why most of them recommend you install them on a seperate partition, and stop most of Windows' services.I don't want to install it on a different partition, What I'm trying to do is install it on a different user, but then just have that specific user NOT run a few services and startup programs.I could find a way to disable startup programs for a specific user, but I couldn't find a way to disable SERVICES for only one specific user. Services like "Task Scheduler", "Indexer", iTunes, AVG, TeamViewer, and many more that I do NOT want running on my studio user - but I DO want running on my every day user.
