Laptop Windows 8 reset file corrupt
by Guest VaughanWebber- 0 replies

I have an older laptop with Windows 8. I tried to reset/refresh Windows recently but I keep getting a message that I need to insert the CD as some files are missing. To my knowledge this laptop has an extra partition? with the Windows files so that you can reset. I also understand that the Windows key is somehow stored on the system? How do I get a copy of Windows just for the files? I assume I can maybe download it somewhere and put it on a flash drive to then get it to reset? Continue reading...

I've recently restored my initial backup from my notebook and it restored a clean installation of windows 8 but since microsoft has ended support for this version of windows I'm having trouble installing updates with windows update (error code 80072EFE) and i cant uodate to windows 8.1 since the microsoft store for windows 8 has closed. When I tried installing a windows 8.1 via iso i recived an error saying that my windows key (original from my notebook) isn't valid. What can I do to solve this problem and update to windows 8.1 (Updating to windows 10 won't help me because the system is bloated and my system runs much slower when compared to windows 8.1) Continue readi…

Factory Reset Problems
by Guest JGordon1215- 0 replies
- 160 views
I have a Lenovo laptop that operates on Windows 8. It's an older computer so I did a factory reset to speed it up. It worked for the most part, except there area a couple of problems that I can't seem to solve: 1. I'm connected to the internet, but when I try to access the Microsoft store it says I'm not connected to the internet, so I can't download games. 2. I can access websites, but certain features are blocked/not working. I can't watch videos on YouTube, and certain websites that offer online games are also not working. I tried a few different things to help fix these issues but so far nothing has worked. I'd appreciate any help you can offer. Thanks…

I recently installed Windows 8.1 Pro 64 Bit. And I had directx 11 as usual. But when I installed updates from Windows Update (KB1919355) or something like that that installs directx 11.2 I saw that directx version didn't upgrade to 11.2. It's still only direct 11 and not 11.2. How could I install directx 11.2? Previously when I updated from Windows Update it installed directx 11.2 but not now. What went wrong? Continue reading...

Hi, I've been having trouble recently with Minecraft recently. When I first purchased it, I bought Java Edition in the Microsoft store. When I downloaded the Minecraft launcher and tried to load Java Edition there, it said I never purchased the version. Java Edition shows up on my Microsoft account, but not on my Mojang. I really don't want to purchase the game all over again, so is there any way I can link my accounts? Continue reading...
