I'm creating a windows 8 app and i need to update it to windows 8.1.
I have a tablet PC which i don't want to install windows 8.1. Is it possible to run an app for windows 8.1 on windows 8?
Btw, the Windows 8 app will run just fine on Windows 8.1 also. But if you want to update your app for Windows 8.1, then you can create it specifically for Windows 8.1. Then the Windows 8 machines will get the Windows 8 version and Windows 8.1 machines will get the Windows 8.1 version.

I am trying since 2 days. I was able to Install but I Cant see my all services in 'SQL Server Configuration Manager and I cannot access sql server management studio.
It works fine on my windows 7 laptop and it have all the services.
Xp have only 'SQL Server(SQLEXPRESS)' running and 'SQL SERVER AGENT(SQLEXPRESS)' and 'SQL SERVER Browser' stopped. I right clicked and tried to start but start is disabled. I am not sure whether this is installation issue or because of windows xp.
You can find a list of supported operating systems and requirments here.
I checked for you and XP Professional service pack 3 is in the list.
You can try if updating your service pack works?

I have some devices with Windows CE 5, CE 6, Windows Mobile 6.1 and 6.5.
Synchronizing with ActiveSycn 4.5 on XP and Windows 7 I have no problems.
Now I'm facing the new Windows 8 and I cannot connect. Does anyone know how to connect?
Done! First I connected the device, windows 8 detected it, but it could not install it.
Then I executed Windows update on Windows 8, there were like 20 updates pending. This installed Compact framework 2 and 3.5 among other packages. Reboot, and now everything is working fine.
Download
http://download.microsoft.com/download/0/4/3/0432540e-2d1a-415d-9c9d-a9963e43503e/drvupdate-amd64.exe for win8 64bit and reconnect your device.
There are few errors during installation - just ignore it.

I installed win 8 rtm on my laptop and today decided i wanted to RDP to it. I went to the remote table of the 'system properties' dialog and theres no option to enable it. There's a useless 'remote assistance' fieldgroup that microsoft apparently want to force me to use.
What I want is the magic checkbox that lets anyone RDP in. I've seen (http://blogs.technet.com/b/digital_musketeer/archive/2011/09/14/how-to-enable-remote-desktop-on-the-windows-8-ctp.aspx) other people have the option but I don't. Mine looks like the screenshot in the link except the remote access field group isn't there. I am an admin. Anyone know the reg key to turn this on?
According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_8_editions#Comparison_chart only the Pro and Enterprise versions of Windows 8 can host RDP. So if you don't have any of those versions you will not be able to connect to you laptop using RDP. Also confirmed on the offical Windows team blog at http://blogs.windows.com/windows/b/bloggingwindows/archive/2012/04/16/announcing-the-windows-8-editions.aspx.
I'm running the Windows 8 Enterprise RTM and I can get the same dialog as in your linked blog post. There are slightly different choices but the options are there, see http://www.guidingtech.com/13469/how-to-enable-remote-desktop-in-windows-8/ for screenshots of the dialog in Win8 RTM.

How can i install Sharepoint 2010 in Windows 8 64 bit enterprise evaluation version?
I have the follwing Software IDEs
1)SharePoint 2010 Server edition
2)SQL Server 2008 R2 Express edition
3)Windows 8 enterprise evaluation edition
Installing Sharepoint on Windows 8 is identical to that on Windows 7 installation.
Here's a link that I followed but for consumer preview though,

I would like to install a web server on my Window 7. I found instructions for installation of Apache on Windows 7. But as far as I understood I need to have the administrator permission to do so. Am I right?
I also though that it is probably a good idea to install another web server (like a native one) on my Windows 7. I thought it should be easier to do + apache is not designed for Window 7. Driven by these ideas I found some information about Microsoft IIS server. But than it is written that I need to have the Professional edition or the Ultimate edition of Windows 7. Does anybody know how can I check my edition? I do not know which edition I have.
You can Start -> Right Click Computer and then select Properties. In the Window you will see the version of the windows.
Apache will work for Windows 7. I use easyphp in my Windows 7 Ultimate Machine. yes you need Admin access to install software.
Also Check out
Installing IIS 7.5 on Windows 7 Home Premium, Home Basic, or Home Starter
Some Editions come installed with iis (I think). To check just Do the following
Run -> inetmgr
or. Control Panel -? Administrative Tools -> Internet Information Services.
