My comment: Im posting this to the XP newsgroup too, just so they can be even more warned about how bad vista is, and to avoid it. I still cannot understand how stupid some vista fanboys like frank and others are about vista. Here all the world is saying vista is crap, yet they put their fingers in their ears and march to their own microsoft vista...

If I send a acrobat, word or excel file to print, If i close the application before the printing progress dialog box reaches 100%, the process of printing hangs an I have to cancel printing. In XP and Office 2003, we could do that, but the printing processing would keep working even if you close the app. Do you guys know if this is a bug, normal or if there is any option to fix this? Thanks

In Windows Vista (I have Home Premium) when we move a folder to another that has some sub folders or files with the same name, appears a dialog box asking if you want to replace, etc. But even if I choose to replace all, it remais the folder struvture, empty (it moved the files to destination), in the folder I just moved, and I have always to delete that folder structure in the end. Is this...

I have several Adobe Postscript fonts I purchased a few years ago. They were easily installled in Windows XP; but I can't find a way to install them with Windows Vista. When I click on Add New Font and direct the program to the drive with the CD containing the fonts, thee Add New Font window say no fonts are found on that drive. The fonts on that CD are recognized by Windows XP.

So I have two computers using Vista SP1 and both get turned off every night. This morning started up the first pc and everything went fine during boot and log-in. Then when I tried to start an application the p.c froze with the round "hour-glass" timer showing. Didin't think much of it. I re-booted and everything was fine. Started up the 2nd p.c. a while later and exactly the same problem,...

Okay, after reading some post today, I've read that re-activation is necessary after hardware changes. I'm very tech savvy, but this activation issue is getting too confusing for us legitimate users. I just upgraded my laptop from XP Home to Vista Home Premium via upgrade dvd and only activated once. I've even updated my printer and wireless trackball drivers and no request to reactivate....

Hi all, I am running Vista and office 2007. Whenever i receive an email and do a "save as" and try to add anything to the file name it always saves off the file as some unknown extension. For instance I have a pdf I receive called pic1.pdf, when I save it off as pic it removes the extension .pdf and so the file is unable to open until i readd the extension. Any idea why the save as...

I asked this question at the end of a longer thread I'd started, and I guess it is old news so no one looks to see that I've taken advice, but need some more. In short. I've been about a year on my Vista home prem. machine, and have not set up administrator account and so I am using it with its power that I don't quite understand, which they tell me leaves me more open to invaders etc.. So they...

I'm trying to import a batch of reg settings from a personal drive on the network. The syntax is correct regedit /s h:\MyRegSetting.reg Even when I test the reg file with a manual import (Right-click, merge..) it still fails. Yet runs fine when run from a local drive. :mad: Normally this wouldn't bother me but I need to loop through a few settings for about 300 users. Any ideas?

Hello, I am using windows vista and I am trying to print an attachment from an email. When I do this the attachment is opened with windows photo gallery. Is there another program that I can switch this to so that I can print the attachment as a document rather than a picture. I used XP previously and didn't experience this problem before. Any help is appreciated. Jerry

I was wanting to search my temporary files (on my hard drive) for files that contained a particular word. I knew how to do it in XP, but I couldn't figure it out in Vista. I want to search from a starting point, and include sub-folders from that point. For a single folder I guess could use find (or a grep utility I brought over from my old computer). I want to recurse from a given place (or...
