  1. new computer acting like old one. no true color either


    What can I do to make my new computer operate on windows 10 instead of the old Vista. Also why do I still get none true colors.

    My new computer is supposed to operate on windows 10. My old computer operated on Vista and that's all I can get. Also my colors are the

    same drab ones as my old computer that wouldn't change. I need help. Maybe you can reset it from there.

    :)

  2. Windows 10 acting like Windows 7

    Hi,

    Regrets the inconvenience you have experienced. I suspect the issue might due to the corruption in the user profiles. Let follow the below mentioned steps and see if it works:

    I suggest you to add another Microsoft account by following the steps mentioned below and see if the problem persists:


    • Click Start,

    • Navigate to Settings/>Accounts/>Your Account/> Add a Microsoft account.


    • If you have another Microsoft account try to use that or else follow the steps to sign-up for new and switch with new Microsoft account.

    • Sign-out from the old and Login with new Microsoft account.
    Once you're sign-in with new Microsoft account, then try to perform the actions and check if the problem still occurs. You can remove the existing Microsoft account from there if needed. Check and see if it helps.

    Please ensure to backup you data if you wish to remove your old Microsoft account.

    Hope it helps.

  3. ACT Pro 2013 will not open in Windows 10

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    The most likely causes on a standalone are a damaged or invalid .pad file or SQL is not running, or is damaged.

    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if the issue persists.


      • Click your Windows Start button, choose Run and type in actdiag.


      • When ACT! Diagnostics comes up, click Databases, the Database List.


      • Locate your database in the list, right-click on it and select Detach. Make sure you know the filepath to your database before detaching it.


      • When the database has been detached, open My Computer (or Windows Explorer) and browse to the location of your database.


      • Locate the .PAD file for your database [database name].pad and delete it.


      • Reopen ACT!...you will get a message that the last database opened cannot found, then will be taken to the Open Database dialog box.


      • At the bottom of this box, change the Files of Type to .adf, browse to the location of your database and double-click on the .adf file for your database.


      • You will get a message that ACT! will verify your database, click OK and ACT will reattach your database to SQL and create a new .pad file.

      • Hope this helps.

    True Color

    I downloaded Windows 10 to my PC laptop which had Windows 8.1. After downloading, says True color did not download. How do I download True Color on my laptop again?
