How do i find subdirectory %windir%\System32 in Vista? - has to do with custom screensavers? yeah so i found a cool screensaver online which i had previously downloaded for my old computer which had the XP operating system on it, so i just right-clicked on the desktop, went down to properties and did it in a snap, easily. but i don't know how to do it for Vista, so i found a site, here it is: http://www.vistaheads.com/forums/microsoft-public-windows-vista-general/102439-install-custom-screensaver.html the person said i need to copy my .scr file to the %windir%\System32 directory. i tried searching for it in the search bar located in the start menu but i didn't know what to do after that because there were like thousnads of file folders and i didn't want to mess anything up, like was i supposed to drop the .scr file into one of those or...? i tried looking for a filder that was called %windir%\System32 but did not see one, nor did one show up when i searched yet again in that window. if anyone knows and wouldn't mindhelping me out that would greatly be appreciated. :D thanks!!
Need to figure out how to add a folder to the registry for a screen saver..to edit it, how? Not much to add...There are some other reasons... but anyway, I want to add the folder HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Screensavers\Aurora Aurora being the folder being added. Thanks guys. Thank you ryan for that very insightful comment.. I would give you a frowny-face, but they dont have that on here, so i'll give you a thumbs DOWN :(
my husband and I share a computor his site is slow and my seems to be alright.? we may have a pirated version of windows xp installed at my husbands former employer we are not sure but my hubby allowed Microsoft updates to be installed. Now he says Microsoft gets in and has screwed up his site. It won,t let our computer have screensavers and won,t let him into his email. What can we do we are both seniors and can't afford a new systym. Please help.
