Windows To Go MSDN OS

Good Evening,
I plan to buy MSDN OS subscription, mainly to install the OSes under Hyper-V for diagnostic and testing purposes (I have Windows 2012 R2 Datacenter Dreamspark license)
My question is if you are able to create Windows To Go USB stick without having the reactivation problems ? Do we have access to the VLK or MAK keys at this level of subscription ?

Hi,
According to Window To Go Q&A:
Do I need to activate Windows To Go every time I roam?
No, Windows To Go requires volume activation; either using the Key Management Service (KMS) server in your organization or using Active Directory based volume activation. The Windows To Go workspace will not need to be reactivated every time you roam. KMS
activates Windows on a local network, eliminating the need for individual computers to connect to Microsoft. To remain activated, KMS client computers must renew their activation by connecting to the KMS host on periodic basis. This typically occurs as soon
as the user has access to the corporate network (either through a direct connection on-premises or a through remote connection using DirectAccess or a virtual private network connection), once activated the machine will not need to be activated again until
the activation validity interval has passed. In a KMS configuration the activation validity interval is 180 days.
In addition, Using Multiple Activation Key (MAK) activation is not a supported activation method for Windows To Go as each different PC-host would require separate activation. MAK activation should not be used for activating Windows, Office, or any other
application on a Windows To Go drive.

  • Windows 8 oem upgrade to windows 8 pro MSDN

    I am thinking of buying  a new PC for dev work which has windows 8 oem installed. As I have an msdn subscription can I use the windows 8 pro download to upgrade to this?
    If the answer is yes how do I do it?
    I see there is a retail windows 8 pro pack which is not available on msdn, however there is  a single multiple version download which is either windows 8 or pro and is predicated on entering the relevant product key to distinguish between
    the two which suggests this is for a clean install.
    I am reluctant to go the clean install route as this would run the risk of not having access to corresponding drivers as utility disks and download drivers are not always immediately available for new machines. (Have been caught out in the past by this!)
    Hope someone can point me in the right direction - thanks.

    1. Press the Win key and the F key and type System
    in the Search box, then click on Settings.
    2. Click on the System icon that appears
    3. In the window that opens, click on "Get more features with a new edition of Windows"
    4. Click on "I already have a product key".
    5. Enter your MSDN Windows 8 Pro product key.

  • Windows 8.1 upgrade fails with error code 0x80070057

    I have attempted to upgrade Windows 8 Pro (Msdn) to 8.1. The install gets as far as 'Applying changes, then comes up wiith the extremely helpful error message 'The application wasn't installed'.  Clicking on view details gives, the  equally helpful,
    'Something happened and Windows 8.1 couldn't be installed> Please try again. Error Code: 0x80070057.
    What is going on here?
    On a second note, I have two PCs running Windows 8. One of them had the upgrade on offer this morning, the other didn't.  Curiouser and curiouser.

  • PDF (metadata) is not displayed in WIN7 Windows Explorer

    The PDF Tab (metadata) does not get displayed (such as: Title, Author, Subject, Keywords) when viewed in Win7 Windows Explorer.
    This information is displayed when you view the Properties information via Adobe Reader (v9.4).
    This is causing issues with our document management.
    When looking around at various blogs this is all I have found:
    Adobe implemented in pdfshell.dll an ActiveX interface called IColumnProvider, and Microsoft dropped support for this interface in Windows Vista (replacing it with something called the Property System). So, the PDF Title column feature didn't go away with Windows7, it went away with Windows Vista. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb776831%2 8VS.85%29.aspx
    Has pdfshell.dll been updated to provide the Property System interface that Vista and Windows 7 require? See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb776859 %28v=VS.85%29.aspx
    Has anyone else experience this and is there a valid work around?

              Hi Bernd,
        I use Adobe reader XI and metadata is not very friendly, if i have no metadata in explorer it's annoying but if acrobat reader is showing wrong information in file properties there must be something to do to clarrify the situation.
    NB:
    What i've tried
    Adding keywords with exiftools (works good for other tags), result ok when viewing properties with evince, but not with adobe reader (; subject in place of ; keyword)
    So i erased xmp metadata and retried, job done!
    Does someone can explain howto solve this problem because i'm not in favor of deleting adobe pr*sm informations
    http://www.adobe.com/products/xmp/index.html
    What i found is for myself => RTFM as extracting the tags should be done with the -g (with group) option to avoid problems when writing back.
    Result is ok no more mix.
    Thanks for reading,
    Gilles

  • CS6 crashed when used RAMdisk on Windows 8

    I have Photoshop CS6, I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 8 (both x64). I use the RAM disk as a scratch disk (16 GB RAM total, 4GB RAMdisk). When I use filter liquify, Photoshop crashed. I tried two RAMdisks and both have the same behaviour. In Windows 7 it worked good. I have final version of Windows 8 from MSDN, no beta.

    It's generally a bad idea - don't use a RAM disk for scratch.  Photoshop will work better overall if you give it all the RAM possible (roughtly 14 GB in your case) and use a hard drive for scratch. 
    Keep in mind Photoshop's use of scratch space quite often runs into the tens or even hundreds of gigabytes!
    Regarding how well Photoshop works on Windows 8 - well, I'd say you're more likely to be having problems with the display drivers than the RAM disk, or maybe there's some kind of coupling.  Keep in mind that Adobe has not yet said they officially support operation on Windows 8.  It may be that they're holding off release of the 13.0.1 update until they've had some time to test and tweak Photoshop on Windows 8.

  • Mapping Windows API to Java - JNA

    I am trying to use JNA to implement the functions in the Win32 USB API (http://www2.hawaii.edu/~hermany/api.htm)
    I am trying to figure out how to map the following "HDEVINFO" which is defined as "typedef PVOID", which in turn is defined as typedef void* PVOID; (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb401729.aspx)
    ===================================================================================
         * From the API provided by Microsoft (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms792959.aspx)
         * HDEVINFO
         * SetupDiGetClassDevs(
         * IN LPGUID ClassGuid, OPTIONAL
         * IN PCTSTR Enumerator, OPTIONAL
         * IN HWND hwndParent, OPTIONAL
         * IN DWORD Flags
    http://www.alanmacek.com/usb/DDKFiles/setupapi.h
    typedef PVOID HDEVINFO;
    ====================================================================================
    HDEVINFO is supposed to be an array of structures for the device information set. How do I map HDEVINFO on to the Java class that mirrors the SetupDiGetClassDevs function in the API?

    Well I am using JNA (jna.jar) to make the call to the function available in the setupapi.dll. In the following code: Setupapi INSTANCE = (Setupapi) Native.loadLibrary("setupapi", Setupapi.class);*, this is what is being done. I am new to using JNA. Also, It would be great to have a resource that lists all the available functions for a Windows DLL. MSDN, of course is a good resource but it does not provide search results for a dll. One has to know the function to be called.
    public interface Setupapi extends StdCallLibrary {
          * Allocating an instance of the native library using the Native.loadLibrary(Class) method,
          * providing the native library interface
          * This instance is for convenient reuse. Alternatively, we can load the library into a
          * local variable so that it will be available for garbage collection when it goes out of scope
         Setupapi INSTANCE = (Setupapi) Native.loadLibrary("setupapi", Setupapi.class);
          * Declaring native structures to pass to  native functions.
          * To do this, create a class that extends Structure (https://jna.dev.java.net/javadoc/com/sun/jna/Structure.html)
          * and add public fields
          * (which may include arrays or nested structures).
          * Declaring methods that mirror the functions in the target library by defining Java methods with
          * the same name and argument types as the native function
          * (refer to the basic mappings (https://jna.dev.java.net/#mapping) or the
          * detailed table of type mappings (https://jna.dev.java.net/javadoc/overview-summary.html#marshalling) ).
          * From the API provided by Microsoft (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms792959.aspx)
          * HDEVINFO
          * SetupDiGetClassDevs(

  • Has anyone tested Premiere Pro CS5, CS5.5, or CS6 in Windows 8?

    Hi all.  I was curious if anyone has tested Premiere Pro CS5, CS5.5, or CS6 in Windows 8 RTM (MSDN)?  Does CS5 install and run without problem?  I am planning on getting a new system, but don't know if order it with 7 or 8.  Thanks for any input on the matter.

    I have been running on Windows 8 and 8.1 the CS6 suite for a while also. And by the way, capture via firewire does work. Legacy drivers are unnecessary with Windows 8 or 8.1. I have captured from VHS tapes, etc. using the IEEE 1394 port.

  • C# windows phone 8.1 Flyout questions

    Hi to all,
    I have 1 couple of questions about Flyout
    in my xaml I have a Flyout like this:
    <FlyoutBase.AttachedFlyout>
    <Flyout>
    <StackPanel Width="200">
    <TextBlock Text="Minutes" FontSize="16" />
    <TextBox x:Name="MinutesValueTextBox" InputScope="Number" />
    <Button Content="Add" HorizontalAlignment="Center" FontSize="16" Click="AddReminder_Click" />
    </StackPanel>
    </Flyout>
    </FlyoutBase.AttachedFlyout>
    1) how can I get the value of the MinutesValueTextBox?
    2) how can I hide the Flyout ?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Vagelis Dermos,
    >>1)how can I get the value of the MinutesValueTextBox?
    In my mind, one way is to use the two way binding like the following:
    <TextBox x:Name="MinutesValueTextBox" Text="{Binding Text,Mode=TwoWay}" InputScope="Number" />
    After that it will become easy to get the value of the MinutesValueTextBox and that is how MVVM was meant to work.
    For more information, please try to refer to the article about how to implement MVVM in Windows Phone:
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/gg521153(v=vs.105).aspx .
    >>2) how can I hide the Flyout ?
    For example you have defined the following xaml:
    <Grid Name="MyGrid" Background="RED" Width="100" Height="100" Tapped="MyGrid_Tapped">
    <FlyoutBase.AttachedFlyout>
    <Flyout>
    <StackPanel Width="200">
    <TextBlock Text="Minutes" FontSize="16" />
    <TextBox x:Name="MinutesValueTextBox" Text="{Binding Text,Mode=TwoWay}" InputScope="Number" />
    <Button Content="Add" Click="Button_Click" HorizontalAlignment="Center" FontSize="16" Click="AddReminder_Click"/>
    </StackPanel>
    </Flyout>
    </FlyoutBase.AttachedFlyout>
    </Grid>
    Then we can use the Hide method to hide the Flyout as following:
    FlyoutBase.GetAttachedFlyout((FrameworkElement)MyGrid).Hide();

  • Windows 8 asks for media drivers during install

    I have a 2009 Macbook intel 2.26 core dual with 4 gigs of ram and Mountain Lion installed. I downloaded and burned to a DVD the full (not preview release or beta) Windows 8 from MSDN. Boot Camp creates the partiion then restarts, after the intial set up begins a pop up window asks for media drivers. I used Browse but could not find any. I am thinking that Windows 8 can't find the media drivers for the DVD super drive? Any ideas on how to resolve this. Should I use a usb flash drive instead?

    It is 2015
    "Go back to 7" is absolutely not an acceptable response. I've had this exact same problem for years and now in running the Windows 10 Tech Preview which compounds the issue by forcing broken drivers through Windows Update.
    In a few months you will have THOUSANDS of customers upgrading to 10 who will be left with broken machines because YOU are too lazy to support them.

  • Is there a way to read the system DoubleClickTime double-click%3F

    Hi,
    I'm doing some customized actions on a tree if a user "slow-double-clicks" on a valid tag in the tree. My current solution works, but I would like to set the "limit" or interpretation of what constitutes a "slow" double-click based on the system DoubleClickTime setting of the system that the program is running on.. Anyone knows how to read this piece of information on a) windows system or b) any system?
    Please note that due to what I'm trying to accomplish, I cannot use the "double-click" event to make this determination.  (Double-clicks are left alone to do whatever they would normally do.)
    Microsoft MSDN on Double-clicks
    --I guess a more general form of the question would be "how to read out windows system settings in LabVIEW".
    For the specially interested, my program is an event driven queue machine. When I get a mouse up on the tree-control, I pass the ms timer to an action engine (get, set, re-set) which tracks delta time between two clicks and passes out an enum of "click type" (as defined by me) as either n/a, single, double, slow double.
    In my queue handler loop, I take the click message (from event loop), do some basic checks (is tag of the tree coordinate location empty string?) and pass it all along to another state that determines what to do based on click type, parent(s) (or indent level) and column.  The need for this "slow-click" feature came about when I needed to let the user re-name a parent level tag-item.. If you double-click normally on a parent, it will expand or collapse its children list. . In some applications, (windows explorer for example), the default double-click action (open the file) can be "changed" to a "rename" function by clicking a little slower. Clicking too slow will be interpreted as a "single" click (e.g. select).

  • Maintain access to network(shared folders) resources if the site loses access to a Domain Controller?

    Scenario
    Windows 7 users log on to workstations at a site. Domain Controller is up and does the domain authentication for those users across the WAN. Users are then accessing a local(same building) Shared directory on a Windows 2008r2 server, in order to open, modify,
    save new files, etc.
    Then, the site loses access to the Domain Controller due to a WAN outage.
    Question
    Will those users that have already logged onto their Windows 7 workstations continue to have access to the shared resources on the local Windows 2008r2 server with their cached credentials(assuming they don't logoff or restart their machines)?? This has
    been the case in the past, but wondering if anything has changed with Windows 2008??
    Thanks

    Hi,
    The duration that you can access the server depends on when the server requires re-authentication.
    In Windows implementation, SMB session expiration is enforced based upon the client’s support of dynamic re-authentication capability [MS-SMB].
    If the client enables the CAP_DYNAMIC_REAUTH capability bit, the server will enforce session expiration. If a client does not set CAP_DYNAMIC_REAUTH, the Windows server does not return STATUS_NETWORK_SESSION_EXPIRED. 
    The SMB dynamic re-authentication feature was introduced in Windows XP. From there, Windows-based clients set the CAP_DYNAMIC_REAUTH capability bit to indicate to the server that the client supports re-authentication when the Kerberos service ticket for
    the session expires.
    Windows servers do check CAP_DYNAMIC_REAUTH:
    If clientCapabilities sets CAP_DYNAMIC_REAUTH, the server will set Server. Session.AuthenticationExpirationTime to the expiry time returned by AcceptSecuirtyContext.
    If clientCapabilities does not set CAP_DYNAMIC_REAUTH, the server will not set Server. Session.AuthenticationExpirationTime, basically a CAP_DYNAMIC_REAUTH capability bit not set by the client means the session will not expire on the server side.
    To configure Maximum lifetime for service ticket, you can use grouppolicy. The default value of
    Maximum lifetime for service ticket
    in Default Domain Policy is 600 minutes.
    Note:This setting is applied to DC, not clients.
