I know this is easy to do these days with Linux, is there any way to do it with Windows 7? I don't mean install it from a thumb drive, but run it from one.
How to change Windows default language temporarily? For example, English to Russian, but for some time and without losing anything. I will revert back to English.
I want to change Language settings everywhere. In programs, Keyboard input, browsers etc.
I am running a windows 2008 server and trying to manage its power such that the system drive should stop if not used for 10 min. My all of other power settings including on my backup drive work except this one and same is behavior on my Win 7 workstation.
Is it something blocked by the OS or I am doing some mistake?
A new icon has appeared in my tray in Windows 7 recently - a black square with a white A in it:
It doesn't have any tooltip or right-click context menu so I haven't been able to identify which process it belongs to. I tried using the "Find Window's Process" tool in Process Explorer but that won't identify individual tray icons.
Short of killing processes until it disappears, is there a good way to identify which process this icon belongs to?
Using Windows XP. File Explorer stops deleting files when it hits a file which is use. Is there a way to make it skip all files which are in use and just delete the others?
If you will recommend a file explorer alternative, please mention the free one(s).
Is there anyway in windows 7 to change the behavior of alt-tab so that it acts like it did in XP?
What I want is for it to show the icon of the program, not a thumbnail of the window. Most of the thumbnails look alike and its really hard to instantly tell which is which like I could on XP.
When I lock my Windows 7 machine with dual monitors, the "Ctrl+Alt+Del" screen is only on the main display, with the other display just showing a black screen. Is there any way to show either the desktop or other graphic on the secondary monitor while the computer is locked?
When using the “Remote Server Administration Tools” on Windows 7 (or Vista), is there a way to make the tools (such as DHCP or DNS) remember servers that I work with on a regular basis?

Hey,Just a quick note to inform that Oracle Database 11g Release 2 was released for MS-Windows Platform 32 & 64-bit the last weekDocumentation has been updated accordingly
I have downloaded NXEngine (The Open Source version of Cave Story). I have a make file in the directory, which I execute using msys. However, the make file uses sdl-config:
g++ -g -O2 -c main.cpp -D DEBUG `sdl-config --cflags` -Wreturn-type -Wformat -Wno-multichar -o main.o
/bin/sh: sdl-config: command not found
And apparently sdl-config does not exist under windows since there's no sdl installation.
There's also no documentation on the official sourceforge website about this! What do I do?

There are quite a few things you need do to differently in order to write a great Windows 8 App. Although MSDN has it documented completely in their site , the sheer volume of other related information might overwhelm you. In order to make it easy, they have a single pdf with all the relevant information. The file will also serve as a ‘quick ref’ document whether you are developing using C#-XAML or HTML5-JS-CSS or C++-DirectX style. And yes, this has been updated for the RTM version....(read more)

I just upgraded to 12.10. After installing the files and rebooting I had come across following problem:
error file not found
grub rescue _
This problem was easily solved by repairing the boot using Boot Repair tool. This answer helped me.
But after this, Windows won't start. It's giving following error:
A disk read error has occurred
Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart
How do I fix this?
This post try to address an issue with the Microsoft Advertising SDK, the main fact that today Microsoft is still refusing access to the Ad Center worldwide. Yesterday they generously increase the number of free apps we can develop from 5 to 100. According to talks with other developers and the Windows Phone 7 team, I have the strong feeling the model of publishing free apps supported by apps is the right course to take today. This probably why Microsoft has moved to a bigger figure. Am I the only...(read more)
When I download the ISO file my system shows the file as a zip file and not an ISO. I have tried to burn the file as an image to a DVD but my laptop will not bootup from the CD.
Settting in the BIOS are ok so I guess the problem is with the ISO file or the way i burned the CD.
I have follwed the instructions on the site for downloading and burning an ISO image to CD so I guess that my problem is with the file association in windows Vista.
Any ideas and suggestrions welcome
Thanks

I have a Windows Phone app that relies on an XML data file that comes packaged with the app. In the next version of my app, the XML file will be updated, how do I update the data file once per app update?
I thought I could change the file name in the isolated storage, but that would leave trash behind. I could also check for exceptions when I load the XML file, but are there any other, more elegant ways?

I have just moved from Linux to Windows, and I have to use the Zend Framework library. Where should the library be placed?
Directly on C drive
Create a lib folder like C:/lib/
Create a lib folder in my user folder
I am wondering if there is a classic folder where these kind of libraries are placed.
Update:I am asking about the location on my own standpoint. The Zend Framework library is a PHP framework.
