  1. How do I run a program that is fully installed on a different hard drive than my Windows 10...


    I have a hard drive that I moved over into my new computer, that is from a computer that I just replaced.I have a program on the old hard drive that I can't get anymore and I need to be able to run it.The old hard drive has a full, licensed copy of Windows 10 installed on it also, but it has a corrupt sector and can't be used to boot from.Is there a way that I can run this program on the other hard drive?

    :)

  3. External hard drive not suppoted after anniversary update windows 10

    To isolate the issue, we suggest that you perform the following steps below:

    • Connect the external hard drive to the different port and check if the issue persists.
    • Use different external hard drive to connect to the same port and check if same issue happens.

    If the same issue happens after using different external hard drive to different ports, try to run
    Hardware and Devices troubleshooter as it checks for common problem and make sure that any new devices or hardware connected to your PC is installed correctly. Here's how:

    • Press Windows key from the keyboard, type Troubleshooting and select it.
    • Click on view all option on the upper left corner of Troubleshooting window.
    • Select the Hardware and Device options from the list.
    • Click Next to run the Hardware and Device Troubleshooter.

    After that, follow the steps on how to Install and Update drivers
    in Windows 10
    .

    Let us know how it goes.

    Thank you.

    Installing windows from usb hard drive

    I know you can do that, but what about having different windows installers on each partition? I think that's what the OP needs.
