Windows End Of Life Os List

[Joke Grinman]

SorryI'm new to T-bird, and am not a geek. I have tried all kinds of instructions about how to copy windows live mail contact list to import into T-bird. They are not working. I get two error messages.

Thanks for your reply, but your solution did not work. I have downloaded T-bird version 78.5.1 on Dec 9, 2020. I am using Windows 10, with the most recent updates. I did an export of the contact list from my Windows Live Mail and saved it as a VCF file (as you suggested )onto a thumb drive, which I then removed from my desk top and plugged into my note book. When I then click on T-bird Tools, I get the Import box. When I select Address Book then Next, the next Import box allows me to select vCard file (.vcf). I then get a "Select address book file" with the name of the file I saved on the thumb drive (it's actually a folder titled "VCF Address Book"). The blank field box at the bottom asks for a file name, which I oblige by filling in "VCF Address Book". The only next option is to click on the "Open" button which results in presenting my whole list of each contact. There are no more option buttons to click on but another "Open" button. When I click on that, nothing happens. Period. I seem to run into stone walls. Exporting and Importing all sounds very straight forward but for some reason does not seem to be working for me. I really want to get this to work so I can switch over to T-bird. Again I like what I'm seeing and am hopeful I can use T-bird without having to manually build my contact list. Hopefully all this info helps you. Thanks.

You can't import a folder of vcf files in one step. TB will only import a single vcf file, but you have to select one in the Open window. Instead of doing this for each file that represents a single contact, it's recommended to merge the vcf files into one vcf file and then import it.

Well, thank you to everyone who tried to help me solve my problem about transferring my contact list from Windows Live Mail to TB. As it turned out, being not a geek (with ALL respect) I wound up building my TB contact list by the old school method, that being copy and paste, copy and paste..... The effort took time, but the result works just fine. So now I can move along and get comfortable using TB as my default email. Thanks to all for making this such a very nice email client.

I recently got a computer from school. It came with Windows 8.1 installed. I then installed another copy of Windows 8.1 (so it would use the built-in Windows Pro license) and upgraded it to Windows 10. I then installed Ubuntu alongside both Windows 8 and 10.

Now, when I boot the computer, I first see a GRUB prompt (I already un-hid the grub prompt 'cuz I like it that way) with Windows 8 and Ubuntu options. However, there is no Windows 10 option. If I select Ubuntu, the computer boots into Ubuntu. However, if I select the Windows 8 option, I then get sent to the Windows bootloader, where it then gives me options to boot either Windows 8 or Windows 10. (However, by this point, the computer has already loaded the kernel and all. Apparently Microsoft misunderstood the concept of a bootloader and decided that that meant "boot practically the entire system before actually showing the bootloader". Typical Microsoft.)

EDIT 2: After removing Windows 10 from the Windows bootloader with EasyBCD, it seemed that, after a few reboots, it would continually unhide itself and Windows 10 would reappear. However, I then later deleted Windows 10 from the list of OSes in msconfig, and it seems to have stayed deleted.

This solution provides a proper entry in the grub2 menu and chainloads directly into Windows 10 without reference to the BIOS. It comes from this webpage so I claim no credit. It was such a relief to find a working solution.

To find the UUID for the --set=root line (CC66-4B02 in the example) you use sudo fdisk -l to identify the EFI partition then sudo blkid /dev/sda1 (or whatever) to find the UUID of the EFI partition. Note it's not the Windows partition but the EFI one you need. Once you've saved the edit, run sudo update-grub to generate the /boot/grub/menu.cfg file and then restart to test.

As far as I understood your question you have two different Windows installations on one or more harddrives and you don't want the Windows loader to get in the way or managing both Windows installations. I remember that it was possible on legacy setups to directly boot the Windows kernel from Grub (I may be wrong here) but I haven't been able to do this on UEFI setups. Having two independent Windows bootloader configurations that can be called from Grub independently should be very close to what you are looking for.

You need to create a new EFI Partition for the later installed windows. Because the one first installed had its own EFI but the later one seeing another windows just added its own entry to the bootloader now creating its own EFI in /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi so fire up CMD as admin on your Windows 10 and enter the following commands (From here on TenForums):

After looking for a solution for a while, and also being lazy for not trying to spend another hour finding out what and where should I edit and update (as it was futile) I eventually installed Grub Customizer. Works wonders!

For my specific setup I wanted to completely hide grub menu and automatically boot windows unless a hotkey was pressed to boot Ubuntu. So in my specific case os-prober isn't an option because the most important step in hiding the grub menu, which most answers I found neglect to mention, is to set the disable os-prober flag or the menu WILL be shown until os-prober completes.

It took considerably longer than I had anticipated to get right because there are so many partial answers out there but most are version dependant and can lead you astray. I spent a lot of time trying write my own grub menu entry trying use grub commands that didn't exist like ntdlr. Another caveat is that the chainloader functions on my grub try to boot bios not efi and will not work.(Im sure I was doing something wrong?)

In the end the solution was actually simple as the scripts that make your /boot/grub/grub.cfg do most of the work for you in finding UUIDS for your boot partitions. So you can skip the fdisk and blkid steps most people mention.

Every Microsoft product has a lifecycle. The lifecycle begins when a product is released and ends when it's no longer supported. Knowing key dates in this lifecycle helps you make informed decisions about when to upgrade or make other changes to your software. This product is governed by Microsoft's Modern Lifecycle Policy.

Customers can choose Long Term Support (LTS) releases or Standard Term Support (STS) releases. The quality of all releases is the same. The only difference is the length of support. LTS releases get free support and patches for 3 years. STS releases get free support and patches for 18 months.

A new major release of .NET is published every year in November, enabling developers, the community, and businesses to plan their roadmaps. Even numbered releases are LTS releases that get free support and patches for three years.

Customers choosing LTS need the latest patch update installed to qualify for support. If a system is running 6.0 and 6.0.x has been released, 6.0.x needs to be installed as a first step. Once a patch update has been installed, applications begin using the update by default. LTS releases are supported for three years after general availability.

Customers choosing STS need the latest patch update installed to qualify for support. If a system is running 7.0 and 7.0.x has been released, 7.0.x needs to be installed as a first step. Once a patch update has been installed, applications begin using the update by default. STS releases are supported for 18 months after general availability.

Updates are cumulative and released as patches, with each update built upon all of the updates that preceded it. A device needs to install the latest update to remain supported. Updates may include new features, fixes (security and/or non-security), or a combination of both.

Updates are released on the Microsoft "Patch Tuesday" (second Tuesday of each month), however there is no guarantee that there will be a .NET release on any given Patch Tuesday. Patches are announced on the .NET blog. A digest of monthly releases is published to dotnet/announcements. For more details about .NET servicing and patching, see the .NET releases, patches, and support article.

As the end of life nears for a given .NET version, we recommend that you move to a newer .NET version, and reduce/remove your use of the given .NET version. After support ends, we recommend that you uninstall a given .NET version if you are no longer using it, or install the latest patch, and accelerate your plans to remove your use of that .NET version. Your use of out-of-support .NET versions may put your applications, application data, and computing environment at risk. You are strongly recommended to not use out-of-support software.

Starting with .NET Core 3.1, end of life dates align with Microsoft Patch Tuesday (second Tuesday of each month). For example, .NET 6 was originally released on November 8, 2021 and is supported for three years. But the actual end of support day is the closest Patch Tuesday starting that date, which is November 12, 2024.

Support for ASP.NET Core 2.1 on .NET Framework matches the ASP.NET Support policy for other package-based ASP.NET frameworks. The complete list of packages covered by this policy can be seen in ASP.NET Core 2.1 Supported Packages.

Applications using the Framework Dependent Deployment model benefit from .NET updates delivered by Microsoft update. There is no change to apps that use the Self-Contained Deployment model, so these apps are still responsible for keeping the runtime updated.
