How to remove watermark from a Windows 7 PC? It appears after installing SP1 for Windows 7.

 

The Watermark could indicate that you are running a Beta version of SP1. If that’s the case, You’ll need to uninstall it and then install the final version of SP1.

If you have the most recent version of SP1, that could also indicate that you are running a bootleg version of Windows. If you’ve got a bootleg version of Windows, get a genuine one.

If you know that your version of Windows is genuine, this might be caused by the test signaling mode being activated on your computer.

This could be the result of an application whose drivers are not digitally signed by Microsoft.

Microsoft offers two possible solutions in their support forum:

Method 1

 

 

1. Click Start, and then type cmd in the Search box.
2. Right-click cmd.exe under Programs, and then click Run as administrator.
3. At the command prompt, type the following text, and then press ENTER:
   bcdedit /set TESTSIGNING OFF
4. Close the Command Prompt window, and then restart your computer.

Note If this method does not resolve the issue, go to Method 2.

Method 2

1. Click Start, and then type cmd in the Search box.
2. Right-click cmd.exe under Programs, and then click Run as administrator.
3. At the command prompt, type the following commands, and press ENTER after each command:
   bcdedit.exe -set loadoptions ENABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
   bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING OFF
4. Close the Command Prompt window, and then restart your computer.

Hopefully one of these solutions will help you out.

In Windows 7, how to delete icons and notifications from the list (under customize) in the personalize section and How do these get entered here.

This is a common misconception about how the notification area in Windows 7 works, and unfortunately Microsoft’s terminology doesn’t make it any clearer. Icons actually only show up in this area if that program is currently running, so the only sure-fire way to prevent an icon from appearing in the notification area is to turn it off and then prevent it from opening again on startup.

If there are programs that you don’t want to appear in this area, such as “noisy” software that is constantly giving you pop-up notifications, you may have already tried to hide the icon by clicking the “customize” link.

In this window is an option to change any program’s setting to “hide icon and notifications.” Unfortunately this setting isn’t what it appears to be at first. Rather than stopping the icon from appearing in the notification area, it “hides” the icon by moving it off the Start bar directly and into the pop-up window that only appears when you click the arrow icon. Obviously this doesn’t actually prevent the icon from appearing in the notification area.

If you don’t want an icon to show up, and don’t want to see its various pop-up notifications, your only remaining option is to completely shut it down. Click the arrow icon in the notification area to bring up the full list of “hidden” icons. Right-click the icon you want to remove and choose “exit” to close down the program.

In some cases the icon may not give you the ability to shut down the program by right-clicking. In this instance, you’ll need to press “Ctrl,” “Alt,” and “Delete” at the same time and then click “Start Task Manager.” Navigate to the “Processes” tab and locate the name of the program. Click the program’s name and then click the “End Process” button at the bottom of the window.

The program will likely just start up again automatically when you restart your computer, however. To keep this from happening, navigate to the Start bar and type the word “msconfig” into the search box.

Navigate to the “Startup” tab positioned at the top of the window between the “Services” and “Tools” tab. Scroll through the list of programs and locate the program you just shut down. Remove the check mark in the box positioned to the left of the program’s name, and then click the “Apply” button at the bottom of the window.

Restart your operating system to save the change and prevent the icon form appearing in the notification area.
