Question: is there a way to run the XP version of Windows Explorer using this technique. I do not see it on the list, but can I put it there. This integration features disabled problem has plagued me for months. I tried all the other suggestions that I had run across to no avail. I, too, have an integrated card reader hooked up internally. Disabling the drives associated with it causes XP mode to work properly albeit without those drives.
This is the first mention that I have seen that indicates card readers are a problem. It would have been nice just to have XP mode automatically not map those drives when it encountered an error as opposed to totally abandoning ship Bob, I'm having a similar problems to Meghan23 above. Unfortunately, I don't quite understand your reply to her:. What is the name of the file to delete? What is the path to find this file I couldn't find it? Bob, I have read as much as I can find on this problem Enabling Integration Features and having it remain enabled , and your responses are the most straight forward, complete and seem to have helped a number of others.
While the installation went without an error, getting to use it was a major, and long problem. I have one very old planner software app that I've been using since the mid s. Being somewhat stubborn, I refused to change to a newer app. I followed the Microsoft instructions and suggestions I found in forums.
I finally gave up and called and paid for Microsoft tech support. Many weeks and we finally got it working - was able to print to my wireless printer from XP Mode and was able to backup my data to the Host PCs USB drives I make three copies of the data on a daily basis, so I actually have 21 copies of the data after a week. When we got it working I never had a problem with Enabling Integration Features, before it would disable Integration Features after I enabled them, repeatedly.
Then a Windows 7 upgrade hung - 8 hours and the PC hadn't shut down. I powered off the PC and then powered back up. It was no hotter than usual. Powered up again and all seemed fine, until I went to start XP Mode and my planner.
XP Mode was trashed, wouldn't start. Tried to reinstall and still had the same problem. So, another call to Microsoft Tech support and another fee. Interestingly, the fellow that I worked with this time as a level higher and knew the first tech I worked with. A few days and XP Mode was back running and the environment was actually as it had been when the PC crashed the VHD file was still there and had my original environment - settings, programs, printer and drive mappings - all in place, this file is in the same location as the VSV file.
Long winded background to my current, repeated problem. Integration Features will no longer stay enabled. Reinstalled my planner app, configured and tested my printer and host drives didn't map them, just access them from My Computer.
Suddenly as I said, I can't recall anything going wrong to trigger the repeat of this problem Integration Features will not enable. I've deleted the VSV file and the problem still exists. Then installed 48 updates. It worked for one afternoon and evening. Booting the laptop this morning and Integration Features again is unstable. One more Windows update was installed. Then I followed your suggested steps:. Delete the" Windows XP Mode.
That should then allow XP Mode to start correctly. Have you uninstalled, rebooted XP, and reinstalled the Integration Components? All of this occurs in XP Mode not on Win7. I created folders in both with the backed up data and programs from my planner app and would like to have access to them from the Host PC. I'm just about at the point of abandoning XP Mode and looking for an alternative Virtual Machine app, just using Outlook, or getting the Outlook app from the original software provider of my planner app.
All of these options are less than ideal, but Microsoft's XP Mode has also become less than ideal. Or say differently? I use four of them to backup the data I use in XP Mode. The system crashed during a Windows upgrade and then I had problems, contacted Microsoft Tech Support and paid to have it fixed.
Since then it has only worked occasionally. Keep in mind that integrating audio adds one more component that can go wrong. If you really have no need for sound while using XP Mode, leave this option unchecked. This is one of the most useful integration features. Printer — If you plan to print from within XP Mode, check this option. Using printer integration, XP Mode will treat your printer as if it were connected directly to it rather than to your physical PC.
Most people find that integrating the printer is essential to get the most from XP Mode. If you have no smart cards, leave this one unchecked. Drives — This option lets you specify whether all drives or only the ones you choose are integrated with XP Mode. Thanks for your feedback. Thank you for your suggestion to download vmguest.
After I sent you previous reply. I still don't get Integration service. Can you suggest any pointer? I know you have helped me a lot. I got integration service installation in VM XP. I installed it. It did not say that there was problem. But upon restarting I could not find integration working. I looked at my control panel and in Microsoft Hyper-v I found following Three sys files with yellow!
