Re: [Vista] Preparing your Desktop???
Sounds like XP may be corrupt in some way and need a repair, however, the experts may know better.
As to DeskSave, well, if there's no stable user account, I guess it's not going to work so well. As the only user on this machine, yes, I save as Primary; and when XP or Vista decides to get psychotic and blowup my desktop, DeskSave to the rescue!

| His computer is Vista and I think he has a corrupt profile. He said he has nothing saved in his profile and that everything is stored in his Yahoo mail. I have no idea of how to save anything from his Yahoo mail, especially since you lose everything in that profile if there's a way to download it.
DeskSave does sound good under normal circumstances. Thank you.

Thank you. Sincerely, Libra Have you tired creating a new profile (login account)?
All yahoo email stuff is stored on their servers so you would just have to set up the browser with the bookmarks to yahoo and other sites. |

| Hi Indy,
I thought he told me he set up a profile with his son's help and had the same problem. I found out today that another account which was already created, had the same problems, not a new one.
I believe this problem started when he shut down the computer while HP was installing an update.
He gave the laptop to his son in law, whose brother is an IBM programmer. Hopefully, he'll be able to fix it.
Thanks for letting me know about the Yahoo mail being on the servers, I wasn't aware of that.
Sincerely, Libra |
