Zero Touch Migration - Outlook creates new profile
by Guest TE2011- 0 replies
- 69 views
We are in the process of deploying Windows 7 and Office 2010 from XP and Office 2003 to 3,000 machines via an inplace migration using SCCM 2007. When the user logs into the new Windows 7 machine and starts Office 2010, Outlook creates a new "Default Profile" and takes the old profile and renames it to "BACKUP OF Default Profile". This would not be a problem, but outlook does not use the old profile, which has all the signatures and shared mailboxes, instead it uses the newly created Default Profile. How do we automatically prevent Outlook 2010 from creating a Default Profile when a user logs in, if a Default Profile already exists? How do we make Outlook 2010 use the…

We have a recruiting firm with 30 people that are utilizing their computers and Internet Explorer all day long. We have mostly Vista 32-bit machines, but also a Windows 7 32-bit machine and a Windows 7, 64-bit machine. We must use IE due to the specific Website that we use for most of our CRM process (bullhorn.com). Recently Microsoft forced the IE9 upgrade on most of our users and now we are experiencing slow downs in multiple sites: Bullhorn.com TheLadders.com ZoomInfo.com Monster.com What seems to happen is that everything is working great when you first start IE9 (Slightly faster than IE8 was), then over a period of time that ranges from 90 minutes …

Hi, I have Office Home and Student 2010 installed on my PC- Windows 7 and my Netbook- Windows 7 Starter. The "ink to math" feature works fine on the PC, however the "ink to text" feature is grayed out. The Tablet PC components are turned on, and as 'ink to maths' works, I cannot understand why 'ink to text' does not. Neither 'ink to text' or 'ink to maths' are available on the netbook. Is this a Windows Starter issue? All of my notebooks, on both devices, are in 2010 format, not 2007. Is there some way of resolving this? Thanks in advance. Continue reading...

I realise that this isn't an AVG forum but I was wondering whether anyone could help me with a problem I have. I'm trying to install Teamviewer on a friend's PC so that I can log in remotely and help them with problems. However when I try to install the program I get a message that says AVG Internet Security is blocking the install and the program needs to be added to the safe programs. However I can't find that option anywhere in AVG program or in the AVG Help and website suuport pages. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong places but I would appreciate it if anyone could point me in the right direction? Many thanks Tony Continue reading...

Greetings! Win7 x64 & Office 2010 x64 professional with SP1. When we try to send mail using 3rd party program a message appears: There is no email program associated to perform the requested action.

Dear all, We are using Citrix XenDesktop with Provisioning Image. We had set that everynight, all provisioning image will be restart so the Win 7 will be always fresh. We had also set that the My Document and Desktop files are redirected to a network drive to work with Roaming Profile. However, another problem is encountered. Our users report that they had edit the file in their Desktop and the next day, they found the file is not the most update one. Having checked the issue, we suspect that the problem is due to the offline file sync issue.

Computer crashes during Security Essentials or MSRT full scans .
by Guest CathyMarch- 0 replies

Bonjour ~ Until recently, my computer and Security Essentials got along well together, but to my frustration that's no longer the case. My desktop (Vista-home basic/32-bit) crashes 30 min. into a Full Scan when using either Security Essentials or Malicious Software Removal Tool. The Security Essentials Quick Scan reports 'nothing found'. Both, Security Essentials and MSRT, when I've attempted to do a Full Scan, scan too quickly (and crash too suddenly) for me to be positive about which file(s) are causing the computer to crash, except for the first part of the file, I saw: C:\Program Files\Java... By the way, what is Java? (I just looked up my Java's file Properties, …
