<<<<However, I have now started using the backup that is an integral part of
Windows 7 professional and find it far more reliable than Ghost. Also,
now every file on my system has a list of previous versions that can be
restored with a couple of clicks. You don't even have to start up the
backup program to access backed up previous versions of a file. That
backup is available in Windows 7 Home premium but unfortunately that
version will not work over a network.>>>>
My three Win 7 systems are all Win 7 Professional. They were installed by my company's IT consultant, and they work fine with the occasional "getting-to-know-you" glitch. I am now using Acronis "True Image Home 2010" So far it seems to work fine and seems much more intuitive than Ghost.
<<<<That is one of several reasons why I decided that Windows 7 professional
is worth the extra bucks. The other reasons are the ability to host a
remote desktop session, a feature that I use daily between my shack
computer and my roaming laptop, and Windows Virtual PC.>>>
Remote desktop is one of the items that I have not set up yet; however, I am going to.
<<<<Microsoft claims that Windows 7 is simpler to use and once you get out
of the old Windows XP mind set and stop trying to make things more
complicated than they are I think you will agree that it really is simpler.>>>>
<<<<That statement is a self-fulfilling prophecy. It is intrinsically correct because a person can get used to any new way of doing anything. After you do - it may or may not be "simpler." The question is - why should I have to? I haven't used Windows 7 very long; however, I am navigating around it pretty well. So far it isn't any simpler, it is just different. (My $.02 worth) Another annoyance - My first PC was a Sinclair Timex TS 2000. I have worked with and used Commodore, CPM, DOS, Windows 3.0, 3.1, 3.11, 95, 98, Millenium, NT, XP, Server 2003, and now Windows 7. >>>>
--> End rant <--
I got the directions for moving dxlabsuite between PCs at . I got the directions for mvoing lotw between PCs at .
The first directions seemed to work flawlessly - the second not so good. In all the discussion about Win 7 pros and cons the real problem that I have seems to have been lost. I have my certificates. When I run tsqlcert - my certificates all show up just fine.
What I am missing is my locations. I know I can recreate them; however, it is a pain to do so. I assume they have to be close enough to the original definitions so that LOTW and DXLabSuite with be able to link them to the databases correctly. I did a complete save of the "Documents and Setting" tqsl folder.
