    Windows 8 Windows 8.1 back up questions plus optimize extra drives

    This is what it shows. I am not sure which blue one you mean. Do you mean the top one that shows 500mg right under VOLUME?

    Windows 8 Net Framework 4.5

    Thank you. I looked at that. They did not have the same Windows Features selections that I did. Well, the net framework issue must not be the problem, with the WD Smartware backups then. Thanks for all the help here. This forum is AWESOME.

    Windows 8 Net Framework 4.5

    If I go to Windows Features, turn on or off...you see two listed. It shows net framework 3.5 and below, then it shows 4.5...they were both enabled, although I didn't do it, it must be the default. It did not list .net framework 4 though. The first one showed the ones below 3.5 in parenthesis...

    Windows 8 Net Framework 4.5

    I already thought of that. It shows no updates in the updates history. Then you look at updates installed, and it has quite a few listed. None say Net Framework. I read somewhere that net framework was in Win8 or 8.1....as there is a folder for that. I guess when I deleted old windows stuff...

    Windows 8 Net Framework 4.5

    I have a My Passport external hard drive. I have not been able to successfully back up using their software. Their tech support said I need Net Framework for it to work properly. I thought I would get the most up to date kind. He said I must have version 4. If I go to search bar and type in...

    Windows 8 Net Framework 4.5

    Did they fix all of the vulnerabilities on this? I know if you download it, you will have to install security updates for it. I am hesitant to update to that, if they are having problems. I believe I have version 4. I did not see it on Add or Remove Programs though. I saw none listed.

    Josephur, I can install all updates now. But that one particular one is not in my update history. It doesn't come up when I check for new Windows Updates either.

    Windows 8 i don't know where this question belongs: Windows 8.1 major problems

    I had a huge problem upgrading from the store too. This link may help you. Use an iso instead of the store. I wish I had done that. I could have saved myself a lot of trouble. I am sure there are threads on this here, as well...

    Windows 8 Windows 8.2 Rumors Likely True: Start Menu Returns

    I should have mentioned that I took care of the corrupted files before I did your disk cleanup tip. I rechecked afterwards, and it still shows no corruption thank goodness. I haven't used it enough yet since last night, to see a difference. I should know soon how it worked out. It did not...

    Windows 8 Windows 8.2 Rumors Likely True: Start Menu Returns

    I should have done what you said before. Recently I found out I did have corrupted files. Kemical, I am doing that cleanup now. Maybe that will fix some other issues I've been having too.

    Windows 8 Corrupted files not fixed by SFC /scannow so now what?

    Oh, I looked at that KB update. But it shows it is for Win8, not 8.1 ? I would still need that? I am going to be away from computer until this evening. I will look to see your comment on that. I am doing an SFC /scannow to see what it says, before I do more. I think I mentioned I ran a...
