  1. Can't remove Windows 7 from the Config.sys


    I having many problems with my PC, which resulted in my installing the upgrade from Windows 7, to Windows 10. I installed it on the B drive SSD, but now when I boot up, I get the options of either 7 or 10. That is, when it gets that far yes I'm still having issues with the PC
    When I'm in Windows 10, I go in to config.sys and try to remove the Windows 7 from the boot option.
    I get this.

    "System configuration cannot save the original for later restoration. Boot changes will be reverted. The system cannot find the path specified."


    I've found nothing on the net that gives a solution, so here I am kindly asking for advice.
    Do I delete Windows 7 myself SHIFT+Delete or what?

    :)

  2. How to use Sys. Config. to get rid of un-needed sioftware

    Hello,

    Here's the steps I'm doing, cuz i believe they may stop/disable UN-wanted software.

    I open up "System Configuration." & click on "Services." I see a very long list (counted @ 217 items). ALL have a check-mark. Some are "Running". Most are "stopped."

    I put a check-mark in "Hide all Microsoft Services", and the display changes to 7 items (all with check-marks) and all are labeled "stopped."

    "Enable all" is grayed out. I click-on "Disable all."

    Each item's check-mark disappears. "Hide all Microsoft Services" is still checked.

    I click "OK". The window closes on its own.



    I want to check to see if Sys. Config. has
    retained these commands to 'Disable" this mass of software.



    It didn't. Sys Config looks exactly like it did when began the process.



    I did a re-boot & nothing was retained of my changes in Sys. Config. It's as if I did nothing.

    Please would someone send me the correct steps on this ?

    Thanks,

    Gary
