Windows 7 Pulled from Retail?

As a microsoft developer (with MSDN Premium), a hardcore pc gamer and windows user, I can say with assurance that Windows 7 x64 is your best Desktop OS.   Win7 is #1 in market share and far from outdated.  Windows 8.x is a terrible desktop OS.
  There is no way I am going to upgrade to Win8 on my uber gaming machine at home.
Why oh why Microsoft are you pulling Windows 7 from store shelves and OEMs?
Do you have something against making money?
Do you have something against being #1 in Operating Systems?
Do you really think that we believe that Windows 10 will be worth upgrading to, even for free?
Finally readers, lets take a look at what Windows 10 really is.  do any of you know the version numbers of the following operating systems?
Windows Vista = v6.0.x
Windows 7 = v6.1.x
Windows 8 = v6.2.x
Windows 8.1 = v6.3.x?
I will bet an xbox live 1 month gift card that
Windows 10 = v6.x.x
They are all windows Vista modifications.   By far the best Vista mod is Windows 7.   Never change a winning game Microsoft.  You actually succeeded in putting perfume on a pig and making it smell good with Vista and 7.   
I just happily paid about $140 for Windows 7 Professional OEM on my new gaming pc.  If I were you, I would put Windows 7 back on the retail and OEM shelves ASAP.

Hi Wayne,
Thanks for your support and attention for Microsoft products.
Every product has its life cycle. This is normal behavior for keeping its improvements, like Windows XP to Windows Vista to Windows 7.
Have you tried to use the Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 new system?
Compared with Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 make many improvements. They have new look, fast speed of startup, an incredibly broad set of devices and more security.
For more information, I suggest you read these articles about new Windows:
What’s new in Windows 8.1 Update and Windows RT 8.1 Update?

  • Windows drivers from retail Snow Leopard install DVD older than the computer

    I'm trying to install Windows 7 64-bit on my mid-2010 Core i7 MBP (running 10.6.8) via Boot Camp. Since I am experiencing the "Windows support software is not available" bug when I try to download the drivers etc., it looks like I will have to install the drivers from an OS X install DVD, but I don't have access to the OEM disc that came with the computer. 
    I do have a retail Snow Leopard DVD that I got to upgrade my old Macbook right when Snow Leopard came out; will this disc (which predates the computer by about one year) have the drivers I need to get the hardware to work with Windows?  My concern is that since the disc is older than the computer, the disc may not have the drivers needed for the newer hardware. 
    Another issue/possible solution:  I had planned to upgrade to Lion as soon as this Boot Camp situation is straightened out; would there be a way to get around this issue by upgrading OS X first and then setting up Boot Camp?

    Any OS X DVD from 10.6 or later is fine, as we never tire of saying....
    Yes, sortof to upgrade OS X first, or leave as is and install Lion on an external drive (you can clone 10.6 only first with CCC to do that). Then clone back is one idea.

  • How Do i create a list that will show in a dropdown box with the list being pulled from another tab and not the cell data format junk?

    How Do i create a list that will show in a dropdown box with the list being pulled from another tab and not the cell data format junk?
    I currently run OS X 10.10.1
    Now i have been trying to work on this for a while now and what i want to do should be simple but its apparently not.
    Here is an example of what i want to happen.
    I will have 2 tabs: Contact | Sales
    Now Contacts will have the list of names and various information about a customer, While Sales will have one drop-down box for each Cell Row that will show the names of the person in tab contacts
    for what i am wanting to do i cant use the data format pop-up menu because the list is edited everyday several times a day.
    Now how do i do this, Excel can do this so how can numbers do it?

    Hi Shegra,
    Paste this into a applescript editor window and run it from there. In the script you may need to adjust the four properties to agree with your spreadsheet. Let me know if you have any questions.

  • Can videos be pulled from the photo library?

    I had the app made and I when i got it, i was told that it didn't work because my videos wherent in my camera roll, but in my photo library photo tab.
    They told me i had to get them in the camera roll. The problem i'm facing is that theres lots of videos even if i could put one or two in its just not happening.
    Can someone tell me if there's code to pull them from  there?
    Or can i pull from someother place, I can store videos locally?
    can someone share some light on my issue

    Problem is that the photos do not appear on the computer.
    I tried using the autoplay window that opens when the iPhone is connected and then clicked to import the pictures.  This finds more than on Camera Roll, but as far as I can judge only the photos on the present computer, not the ones I need.  But they are there on a folder in the Phone.

    i purchased windows 7 from amazon and i just received it. they sent me windows 7 home premium "OEM System Builder Pack". the instructions say "Intended for system builders only". also says " must be per installed on the hard drive of a fully assembled computer system, using the OEM Preinstallation kit (OPK)."

    System Builder - just be sure to get 64-bit version, no one needs or wants 32-bit today, and only comes with one, while retail ships with both 32/64-bit media.
    you can't install it and activate on different hardware later is all, and by then for what you saved, so what, Windows 8 or SP2 will be out.
    A few people had trouble with Windows 7 SP1 for some reason and not sure exactly why, changes to the boot loader on the DVD I presume.

  • Windows 8 from TechNet/MSDN to Windows 8.1 via Windows Store, Possible ?

    Windows 8 from TechNet/MSDN can not be updated to Windows 8.1 via Windows Store.
    It says this edition dose not support update via Store.
    Considering that Win8.1 is free for Win8 users, is there a way to bypass this ?
    Can MSDN Windows 8 be converted to Proper Retail Win8 ?

    Windows 8.1 available from MSDN Subscriber Downloads as well Vladimir, so you can get it from there if your subscription is still active. 
    More information about updating to 8.1 on the Windows Store available here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/why-can-t-find-update-store.
    This is more of a Windows 8 question because the windows team controls how updates work for their product.  I'd post this question over in http://answers.microsoft.com in the Windows section.
    Thanks,
    Mike

  • How can I create a master PDX that pulls from multiple other PDXs?

    I process aviation maintenance manuals, with the individual manuals having their own PDX. How can I create a master PDX that pulls from the individual PDXs?
    I have access to myriad versions of Windows and Acrobat so there's that...

    I’ve got 100s of manuals each with their own PDX. I’ve been asked to create a master PDX that in effect combines all of the individual PDXs into a single (cross-manufacturer, cross-fleet, cross-manual-type) searchable PDX that can be easily updated.

  • SCEP definition updates trying to pull from the Internet - poor behaviour

    Most of our clients do NOT have the ability to just head out to the internet to get things (via proxy or otherwise) and as such, I have configured my Malware policy to use "Updates distributed from Configuration Manager" ONLY
    I do NOT want it trying to get updates from ANYWHERE ELSE.
    Some aren't behaving. :(
    I am seeing log entries that indicate that the client is trying to go out to the Internet to get the updates.

    Anyone have any suggestions?  I don't want the machines to EVER try to go out to the internet when they are trying to update their SCEP defs.

    Stop SCEP from downloading over the internet, uncheck the following locations:
    1. SCFEP Def Deployment (ADR if you have one) - 
    Download Setting: If software updates are not available on preferred distribution point or remote distribution point, download content from Microsoft Updates
    2. Client Setting (Endpoint Protection) [check your priority if you have more than 1]
    Disable Alternet Sources (such as Microsoft Windows Update, ....) for the inital definition update on client computers.
    3. Asset and Compliance :Endpoint Protection, Antimalware Policies (check all that you have and priority)
    Defintion Updates: If Configuration Manager is used as a source for definition update, clients will only update from alternate sources if definition is older than (hours)  Set this to 720.  This is the max, after this the machine will be forced
    to pull from Microsoft to protect the machine.

  • Files pulling from same folder show up differently when uploaded to my site

    When I publish my html files on Adobe muse and I launch them from my file folder, they look great, but when I try to access them from my domain, the images are skewed and it looks awful but it is being pulled from the same location.
    I have published this site many times before and never had this problem.
    What is going wrong?

    I upgraded to the latest Muse version and after I republished I did not have a problem, maybe my computer was no longer compatible with the old one?
    In any event, it is working now. Thank you for your quick response. I appreciate it very much

  • Can I stop Windows 7 from warning about security on every linked PDF?

    I am working on a project for which I have created one central document (an index) and 120 linked documents. Each document, on every page, has links to the next alphabetical document and back to the central index. This project will be distributed on disc to people with unknown computer platforms.
    I am a Mac user, and this works well on my iMac using Adobe Reader. It also works on my ancient Windows XP machine. A tech friend has looked the project over, and he says that on Windows 7 (used by more than half of computer users), every time a document links to a new document, Windows 7 throws up a warning about PDF security hazards. With a large number of documents to open, this could be tiresome.
    Is there a way to stop Windows 7 from warning about security on every linked PDF?
    This tech person recommends joining all the PDFs into one file (around 50 MB by his estimate), which would require relinking every current link.
    Acrobat offers to do the same with its Portfolio, but I'm not fond of the graphic styles offered, and I worry that one large file might be a challenge for older machines.
    Any suggestions?

    Can you get a screen shot of this error message or at least the exact wording? I suspect the error message is being displayed by Reader/Acrobat and not Windows.

  • How can I connect to a windows server from a mac book pro

    How can I connect to a windows server from a mac book pre?

    I have a Dell Power Edge T110 ii in the office that has files and software I need to access when away from the office, when I am on the road I use a mac book pro and an iPad.
    I am sorry if I am being a bit vague but this is all new to me, I have tried 3 IT guys but they can not find a way.
    Any help is greatly appeciated.

  • Can see Windows PCs from Mac, but can't see (and access) Mac from PCs

    Yesterday, I ran into a strange problem which I'm not able to figure out.
    I share an office with some engineers, who have their computer environment (server, network), all running Windows (XP and Vista on the PCs, Windows 2003 for the server).
    Within that environment, I have 2 PCs (both XP) and an iBook G4 (Leopard 10.5.4.). I have also a printer (Epson Laser), which is connected to the office network, and an Airport Extreme Base Station.
    Until last week, I could connect from my PCs to my iBook (wirelessly), and from the iBook I could connect to my PCs, the server, and via the server print on my printer (again, all wirelessly).
    Over the weekend, I took out the Airport Extreme Base Station (to help with an issue at home - see my thread over at Printing), and yesterday I brought it back to the office and installed it again.
    And since I re-installed the Base Station, this is the problem:
    1. from PCs, I can't see the iBook (can't attach a PC drive letter - eg. I:\), and therefore can't access it
    2. from the iBook, I can't print to my printer - furthermore, when I select the Printing preference and click "Add Printer", no printers whatsoever show up (the list stays blank), whereas before the engineers' printer (some Minolta Bizhub with Bonjour) would show up as well
    3. I can, however, access the Windows server from my iBook
    Any ideas what's going on? I tried to solve this, but gave up quickly (no way I can possibly figure this out), plus I have this issue at home (can't print wirelessly to a printer attached via USB to a Time Capsule - I can, however, print to the same printer if I attach it to the previously used Airport Express!) - 2 problems and mounting headaches!
    I am thinking about re-installing the whole system (take off all data, do a complete wipe and start afresh…), but don't like to spend a whole day doing this…
    Again, thanks for any advice!
    Jan

    You only need one computer to configure the Base Station - and since you can easily do this from your PC, you really don't need to be able to do it from your Mac as well. I suggest you stop worrying about this, leave your Base Station running with the current firmware version, and use your PC if you ever need to make a configuration change.
    Note that NO Base Station software needs to be installed on the Mac, for the Mac to be able to connect wirelessly to the Base Station. If your Mac is currently unable to establish a wireless connection to the Base Station, you have a different problem - and one that won't be solved by installing the Airport Admin Utility or downgrading firmware on the Base Station. Incidentally - what type of wireless security are you using on the Base Station - WEP or WPA? A base station configured to use WPA security will only be accessible by a Mac running at least MacOS 10.3.

  • Options Startup Show my Windows & Tabs from last time,but upon exit FF doesn't ask to save tabs & windows. When restarting FF I have a home pape,but no Bookmark tabs show. Why

    Upon starting FF and going to my Home Page, I have no Bookmarks or Tabs showing. I have to Re-load the Bookmark Tabs. My options at Startup are "Show my Windows & Tabs from last time" Also using the Firefox exit,it does not ask to save tabs & windows on Exit. I'm getting tired of adding Bookmark Tabs each time I want to use FF.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder

    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).
