Windows 7 - how to install font from CD
location:
microsoft.com - date:
June 21, 2010
In XP Font folder, I could select "Install New Font", navigate to the CD, then browse the font names to find the one to install.
How do I do this in Windows 7? The fonts on the CD display as the file name (e.g. "Aachenb.ttf") not the font name. Yes I can right click on Aachenb.ttf and select preview or install, but since I want to install a family of fonts, I will have to do this
for each file and it will be time-consuming and inconvenient, assuming I can guess the font from the file name. (What is "Swz721kc" ?)
I like Windows 7, but the font handling is horrible (I won't go into the inability to remove unwanted foreign language fonts).
Any help in installing fonts from CD will be appreciated.

Activating the retail of Windows 7 - how?
location:

Hi Sevenforums!
This is my first post here so I'll introduce myself very quick. I'm Nicolai, I live in Denmark and I am a Windows fanatic. Now that was short!
Anyway, I recently managed, through my work, to legally get a copy of the Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit retail, and I'm just loving it so far! I am however, quite messy, and I have a feeling that the little piece of paper containing my serial number will be gone very soon.
So ehrm, can I activate Windows 7 without waiting for the 30 days to pass? If yes, how?
Also, I know this is a bit off-topic, but where do learn to modify the right-click context menu via Regedit? I tried downloading some files on here and it did frankly not work for me :\
Thanks a lot in advance!!

Ubuntu to Windows 7 --how do I install downloaded software?
location:
microsoft.com - date:
November 29, 2011
Replaced my hard drive recently, and have been running Ubuntu since the reinstall.
Downloaded a full version Windows 7, still currently running Ubuntu. Can I install it without disks? If so, how? If not, can I burn a bootable disk or USB flash drive from the download?
And, no, unfortunately I don't have recovery disks. Got 'em on order from Toshiba, but I don't want to wait if I don't have to.

When running windows 7 How can I Uncheck the checkbox for Enable next-generation Java Plug-in
location:
microsoft.com - date:
January 27, 2010
The box defaults to checked for enable. I can't uncheck that box. Can you help? In XP when I went to Java control panel it was an option to uncheck. Here I can highlight it and hit space bar which removes it but when I do apply and then reopen IE
it reverted to checked. Someone discovered it is disabled but it doesn't seem the old one is enabled. Thank you

location:
microsoft.com - date:
June 7, 2010
I am attempting to use Virtual PC for Windows 7 and am having difficulty in working out how to transfer files from my host system into a Virtual PC I have created.
I was previously using Virtual PC (VPC) 2007 under Vista and am familar with just draging and droping files to and from my host system to the VPC.
I have enabled the integration services and am not sure what user the VPC actually wants. i.e. Does it want me to set up a user Local to the VPC or to the host.
I was able to login to the VPC using a user account that is local to the VPC, but for the life of me cannot figure out how to transfer files like I used to.
To acheive what I need, I have to copy files to a shared location on my network that both my PC and the VPC has acces

Windows 7 - How to make taskbar "Tab" wider?
location:
7forums.com - date:
June 30, 2012
Hi everyone. Just reinstalled Windows 7 64bit on my new Crucial m4 SSD. However....
I have my taskbar set to never combine so that there's no icons.
My previous install of Windows 7, I found a registry hack where I can make the "Tabs" on the taskbar wider. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I found a million threads on how to make the icons bigger and the auto preview bigger.
What I'm looking for:
Example:I want my taskbar to show
|Windows 7 Forums - Post New Thread - Mozilla Firefox|
instead of
|Windows 7 Foru|
Thank you!
