Microsoft launched Windows Vista in January 2007 and stopped supporting it in April last year. ... Vista was a pretty good operating system, at least after Microsoft released the Service Pack 1 update, but very few people still use it.

This document pertains to all HP and Compaq PCs with Windows Vista. Unfortunately, most people think to back up their files after it is too late. There are many ways that the information on your computer can be unintentionally lost. A child accidentally removing programs or data, a power surge, natural disasters. It is recommended to regularly make backup copies of your files and keep them in a separate place. Doing so helps replace some, if not all, of your information back in the event something occurs to the originals on your computer.
Backing up files using Windows Vista native CD burning
Use Windows Vista to back up your important files onto a CD. Use the steps in this section to create a backup disc. Before you Begin Before backing up your files, make a list of the important files that cannot be easily replaced. Use the list to keep track of files while creating the disc and to retrieve files later if needed. Here are some file suggestions to get you started when creating a list:
Documents folder
Digital photographs
Bank records and other financial information
Your e-mail address book
Your Internet bookmarks
Creating the backup disc Now that a list of backup files has been made, you are ready to begin. Follow these steps to back up your files using Windows Vista:
note: CDs can hold about 700 MBs of information depending on the type of writable CD used. If the collection of files you want to copy is greater than the CD is capable of holding, repeat this process using more CDs. You cannot use this process to copy single files larger than a CD is capable of holding.
Place a blank CD-R or CD-RW disc in the CD or DVD writable drive. CD-RW discs can be used many times and can have files rewritten or deleted in a later session. A window for the writable drive opens automatically. If a window does not open, click Start , Computer, and then click the writable drive. Then skip to step 3. Figure : AutoPlay window
Click Burn files to disc.
In the next window, enter a disc title and then click Next. Figure : Prepare the disc window
In the next window, click Yes to format the disc. When formatting is complete, the disc drive window opens. Figure : Disc drive window
Open the Computer window or Windows Explorer and browse to the files.
Click the files from other windows or from Windows Explorer. Hold down the left mouse button and drag the files into the window for the CD or DVD drive. Release the left mouse button to drop the files and burn to disc. As you drag files into the disc drive folder, Windows Vista automatically burns files to CD. Continue copying files until all files are in the disc drive folder window and have been copied to the CD.
note: Formatting the disc takes time. Do not shut down the computer until the format is complete.
You have now created a backup CD in case anything occurs to the original files. Create a backup copy of these files on a regular basis to prevent loss of important information. Label the CD with a descriptive name and store in a safe place. To restore the files from the CD, insert the CD into the disc drive and move the files to the hard disk drive.
Using the Windows Back Up Files wizard
The Windows Back Up Files wizard enables you to create backup copies of files and folders. You can also set the wizard to automatically back up new and modified files on a regular basis.
note: You cannot set up automatic backups in Windows Vista Starter and Windows Vista Home Basic.
If the computer has Windows Vista Ultimate or Windows Vista Business, use Windows Complete PC Backup to create an image of the entire computer. This image can be used to recover from a hardware failure. For more information, see Using Windows Complete PC Backup. Follow these steps to use Windows Back Up Files wizard to back up your files
Click Start , and then click Control Panel.
Under System and Maintenance, click Back up your computer. The Backup and Restore Center opens. Figure : Backup and Restore Center
In Windows Vista Home Basic: In all other versions of Windows Vista, click Back up files in the Backup and Restore Center window.
Choose the location to save the backup, either On a hard disk, CD, or DVD or On a network. Figure : Back Up Files Wizard
If you choose to save on a hard disk, CD, or DVD, select the drive from the drop-down menu. If you choose to save on a network, click Browse to navigate to the network location.
Click Next.
Choose the hard disk drives to back up and click Next. Figure : Hard disk drive selection window
Make sure a check is in the check box next to all of the file types you want to back up and then click Next. Figure : File type selection window Place the mouse cursor over each category name for more information about what types of files are included in that category.
Set the schedule for future automatic backups: Figure : Backup schedule window
Click Save settings and start backup. Windows Back Up Files wizard creates a full backup of the file types you selected. The wizard backs up only new and changed files during future scheduled backups.
Click Change settings under Back up files. The Backup Status and Configuration window opens. Figure : Backup Status and Configuration window
Click Run a file backup now.
warning: Do not save the backup to the recovery partition: FACTORY_IMAGE or Recovery. Doing so corrupts the HP Recovery information.
How often - choose to create backups Daily, Weekly, or Monthly.
What day - choose the day of the week to create backups. If you choose to create daily backups, this list is blank.
What time - choose the time of day to create backups.
Restoring files using the Windows Back Up Files wizard Use the Windows Backup Files wizard to restore all of the files that you backed up using the wizard. Follow these steps to restore your backup files:
If the backup files are on a CD or DVD, insert the CD or DVD into the disc drive. If the files are on an external hard disk drive, connect the hard disk drive to the computer.
Click Start , and then click Control Panel.
Under System and Maintenance, click Back up your computer. The Backup and Restore Center opens.

Click Start restore. The Windows Back Up Files wizard now restores the files.
When the wizard has finished restoring the files, click Finish on the verification screen.

How to Upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 10
Windows Vista is one of the older operating systems that was made by Microsoft. Since the release of Windows Vista, there has been a series of other versions and they have better features than Windows Vista. The latest of this OS is Windows 10 and with its release, all the maintenance and updates received by Windows Vista users stopped in April 2017. This has made a lot of Windows Vista user to start upgrading to Windows 10. If you also want to upgrade but do not know how, do not worry as this article contains the full details of how to upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 10. There are several ways to go about upgrading your Windows Vista to Windows 10, but not every one of these methods works. You may even upgrade to some Windows 10 available on several sites on the Internet and it ends up messing up your file or making your system crash. With this article, however, you will be directed on how to legitimately upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 10 without any harm been done to your computer. Before you upgrade Vista to Windows 10, one of the things you need to know is that Windows 10 has some basic requirements, which your computer should meet before you begin the installation process. These requirements include:
Processor Speed: 1GHz or faster processor or SoC
Memory Capacity: 1GB for 32-bit OS or 2GB for 64-bit OS
Storage Space: 16GB for 32-bit OS or 20GB for 64-bit OS
Graphics Card: DirectX 9 or WDDM 1.0 driver
Display: 800 x 600
These features are the minimum requirements for any computer to upgrade to Windows 10, which means your PC must either have them or have features better than the ones listed above. Another thing to do is to back up your files. This is because during the installation of Windows 10, all your programs and files will be wiped off. So, you can either use Google Cloud, OneDrive, Dropbox, or any other cloud storage. You can also move your files to another computer or use external drives. Once these conditions are satisfied, you can proceed to follow the steps below.
Step 1: Go to the Microsoft Store on your computer and download Windows 10 ISO from support. It would be preferable if you use Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox for the downloading of the file. The file will help you create a bootable installation media which should be a USB drive. Step 2: Make sure that your computer is connected to the Internet before creating the media creation tool. Once your laptop is connected, click on "Download" and select "Run". This will require administrator permission. Step 3: You will see the Terms and Conditions page being displayed—agree and move to the "What do you want to do?" page. Choose "Create installation media for another PC" and click on "Next". Step 4: The next page will ask you to "Select your language" and provide you with a range of options to choose from. Select one and confirm. Step 5: Select Windows 10 as your choice of the edition and click on "Confirm". Step 6: After selecting the edition, the next page will show you two options, which are the "32-bit download button" and the "64-bit download button". To know the one that your system uses, press the Windows key + R on your keyboard to open the run command. Now, type msinfo32 and click on "Enter". The next page will show you the features of your PC and help you know which of the two options to select. Step 7: Choose the USB flash you want to use and connect it to your computer. Step 8: Restart the computer and press any key to boot for the USB drive. If you experience a case where the system doesn"t boot from the USB drive, then change your system BIOS settings. Power up the system and press the ESC key or any of the function to access the BIOS Setup Utility. Step 9: When your computer boots from the installation USB drive, you will be able to configure language, time, date and keyboard settings. All these will be on the install Windows screen. Step 10: After all that has been done, select "Install Windows' and you will be guided through the remaining installation process. All you need to do is just follow the instructions on the screen.

If you're still running Windows Vista, you can (and probably should) upgrade to Windows 10. Here's how to do it.
Microsoft is retiring Windows Vista on April 11, which means that if you're using a computer with the decade-old version of the OS, the time has come to upgrade. However, this is not to say that Windows Vista will stop working after its life support cycle ends. After April 11, 2017, your device will no longer receive any more maintenance, including security and performance updates, and Microsoft won't provide any kind of support. If you want to avoid your computer quickly becoming vulnerable to viruses and other security risks, you should start planning to upgrade. Unfortunately, Microsoft doesn't provide a direct path to upgrade to Windows 10, but you can still make the jump and leave behind Windows Vista for good. However, it's a process that requires that you do a full backup of your data and perform a clean installation of Windows 10. We've got you covered with all the steps.
Before you begin
If you're still using Windows Vista, it's likely that your computer has low hardware specifications, considering today's standards. Before going through the upgrade process, you have to make sure your device meets the minimum hardware requirements to install Windows 10.
These are the official minimum system requirements to run Windows 10:
Processor: 1GHz or faster processor or SoC.
Memory: 1GB for 32-bit OS or 2GB for 64-bit OS.
Storage: 16GB for 32-bit OS 20GB for 64-bit OS.
Graphics card: DirectX 9 or later with WDDM 1.0 driver.
Display: 800 x 600.
Once you know that your device can handle the new OS, you'll need to purchase a genuine copy of Windows 10. You can get a copy of Windows 10 Home or Windows 10 Pro at the Microsoft store.
Additionally, you'll need a USB flash drive with 8GB of storage to create a bootable media.
How to create a full backup on Windows Vista
Upgrading Windows Vista to Windows 10 requires a clean installation, which means that everything on your computer will be erased. As such, it's a good idea to make a full backup of your data and the entire computer.
To make a backup of your personal files, you can simply connect a removable storage and copy the files over. Once you complete backing up your files, make sure you have the installation files and product keys to reinstall any applications you're currently using.
You can also connect an external hard drive with enough free space and use the Windows Vista backup utility to create and restore a system image, which is a form of backup that includes a copy of everything on your computer. If you want to use this tool, do the following:
Open Control Panel.
Under "System and Maintenance," click the Back up your computer link.
Click the Back up computer button.
If prompted for permission, click the Continue button.
Select the hard drive you want to use to make the backup, and click Next.
Click the Start backup button to begin the process.
Click Close.
Once the full backup is complete, disconnect the removable storage, and you can proceed with the upgrade process. In case you need to restore the previous version, remember that you'll need a bootable media with the Windows Vista files to use the recovery option.
How to upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 10
While there is not a direct path to upgrade a decade-old OS, it's possible to upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 7, and then to Windows 10. But that's not an ideal approach, as you'll be wasting time and additional licenses.
The best way to upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 10 is to start fresh with a clean installation, which you can do with the following steps:
Download the Windows 10 ISO from the Microsoft support site. Note that if you're using an older version of Internet Explorer, you'll probably need to use Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox to load the download page.
Under "Select edition," choose Windows 10 and click Confirm.
Select your product language from the drop-down menu and click Confirm.
Click the 64-bit Download or 32-bit Download button depending on your hardware.
In order to burn the ISO file to a USB flash drive,
Under "Devices," select the USB flash drive you want to use.
Under "Format Options," click the disk drive icon next to "Create a bootable disk using ISO image" option.
Select the Windows 10 ISO file you want to use, and click Open.
Click the Start button to continue.
Click the OK button to confirm that all the data on the flash drive will be erased and to start the process.
Restart your computer with the newly created bootable media.
Click Next on the first screen of the Windows Setup wizard.
Click the Install Now button. 14. Enter the product key for your copy of Windows 10.
Click Next.
Select the edition of Windows 10 you want to install (if applicable). This selection must match the edition for which you bought the product key.
Click Next.
Accept the licensing agreement.
Click Next.Click on the Custom: Install Windows only (Advanced) option to start a clean installation of Windows 10.
Select any partition on the hard drive (usually "Drive 0") and make sure to click the Delete button to remove the partitions.
Select the hard drive (Drive 0 Unallocated Space). 20b. Click Next to begin the installation process. Once you complete these steps, the setup will take over and finish installing Windows 10 on your Windows Vista machine. After the installation, simply follow the on-screen directions to complete the out-of-box-experience (OOBE) with the settings you want. During the OOBE, you'll be asked to set up an account with a Microsoft account. As such, you should make sure to have this information handy. Alternatively, you could use a local account, but you'll miss out on many advanced features, including the ability to sync settings between devices. After you finish configuring Windows 10, you'll be presented with the new experience, and the only thing left to do is to restore your files from backup, and reinstall any app you were using on Windows Vista. It's also recommended to go to Settings > Update & security > Windows Update, and click the Check for updates button to make sure your device has the latest security and performance updates. Additionally, you may want to use Device Manager to double-check that all your hardware and peripherals are correctly installed on your machine. If something didn't install correctly, make sure to use your manufacturer's support website to download and install the latest drivers. If you can't find a driver compatible with Windows 10, sometimes drivers designed for the previous version of the OS will still work. But only try this as a last resort.
Quick Tip: Use the Windows key + R keyboard shortcut to open the Run command, type the msinfo32 command and press Enter. If your system type is x64-based PC and the amount of RAM is higher than 4GB, you can install the 64-bit version of Windows 10. Otherwise, select the 32-bit version.
If your device isn't booting from the USB flash drive, you'll need to change your system's BIOS settings to make sure it can boot from USB. Usually, you power up your computer and hit one of the functions or ESC keys to access the BIOS, but make sure to check your manufacturer's support website for more information.
