What he means is that Microsoft dropped the ball by eliminating the faxing
capabilities from vista home, I miss it too, since symanted stop providing
support for winfax. it would be an excellent added value to vista home
premium if they put it back. hopefully somebody at microsoft includes this
topic for the upcoming SP1.
 
Amen to that. Come on Mr. Gates, we really need this fax back. I lived by the
fax utility in windows XP. I'm considering installing xp on my new computers
instead of vista just for the fax capability. I've hesitated upgrading any of
my old computers to vista because there is no fax. Do you know how many trees
and how much time I waste on a daily basis by not having this fax function?

.... to have to buy the business version just to send faxes is ridiculous.
Try finding a computer on the shelves pre-loaded with the business version.
My laptop runs vista basic and my desktop runs home premium.

I just want a fax!
 
Microsoft redeem yourself and the trust people place in you. Return fax to
windows now! I have just spent a whole morning looking for my fax capability
on Home premium! I was sure it was me and not Microsoft; I mean how could
they do it? I upgraded to Vista (against advice from others) from XP not
knowing I was downgrading and losing my fax capability! This bit of info on
fax capability would have definitely changed my decision for a Vista upgrade!
 
Yes, I too would not have go for the Vista if I have known that I will be
downgraded to not having the fax facility. Mind you Microsoft, Home Premium
is not the basic package, and not only business people would send fax. Use
your head.
 
KeyBrd,
I just got done doing the same thing. My old computer died and I upgraded to
a laptop with Vista Home Premium. I've been trying for hours to fax a my
resume to a potential employeer just to find out it's not me... it's
Microsoft! This stinks!
BRING FAX BACK!!! We more than paid for the option.

They call it "Home Premium" version. You'd think the word premium might
mean more, or enhanced features from that of a "basic" or early version? Fax
capabilities have been available since Win95. MS errored not including fax
on all Vista versions. Perhaps I look at that Mac...
 
I totally agree with everybody else here. Please please please return the
faxing app to windows. it is such a necessary app for me since i send quite a
few of them daily. the other thing is that there arent many third party fax
apps around especially from trustworthy companies.

thank you
 
I agree with you i use a fax every day and why or how would ever remove it
from there opperating system got to be crazy. Put it back so we have a faxing
program.
 
I am just discovering what the rest of you know - fax capability needs to be
added to Home Premium. Its omission is rediculous!
 
I am sometimes amazed by how arrogant and irritating Microsoft can be in
making changes. This is one example, one that has already cost me an hour
because I falsely assumed that no sane developer would remove native FAX
capabilities. Either I was wrong or the developer's sanity should be
checked.
 
Development is like artwork. When one creates something, one wishes
everyone to view and see the creation. The same is true with the developers
of the Fax service on Vista.

Marketing group made the call on where to place this feature.
