I and the wife both like the Vista era gadgets.
We have the Clock, Weather, and the Calendar running on all of our Windows 10 machines.

As I tried to explain above, I can see having the “Recent Topics” but not both Recent Replies and Recent Topics!

This makes for a lot extra page scrolling!

I agree with DriffyDonN,

Once a thread id entered to the “Recent” list any other post in that thread, that comes along, it is NOT listed and/or is added in a closed listing within the first one that is there.

A true shut Down will turn disconnect all attached devices, while a restart may keep some devices still connected.

Then you have to scroll back to the top to jump to another thread or group!

It took a while to find these buttons as they are nothing but text to the eye ball.

1, Now all we need is a “READ ALL” button.

2, When going to a thread with a new post, one has to scroll to the new one. Some threads are several pages long!

HiFlyer

Have you tried getting to the safe mode and using the Administrator account?

Unless you set up an password for the Administrator account all you need to do is hit the enter key when in the Password field. Then you should be able to change your account to the Amin group and/or do the install of 10 using this account.

I only do a complete backup each time.

I feel the ‘incremental’ are a waste of time.

If you have ever had to rebuild a system from this type of backup, you will know what I mean.

First the last full backup must be restored and then each incremental will need to be done in the order that they were made. I like doing just the full restore and be done with it.

Also note, that all of the files that were deleted during of the time of incremental, they will be restored, if they are on any of the backups.

I have asked about this during the change over and was told that this Forum does not have that function.

BUT, it does need it and should be at near the top of the list to be added!

 

Woody, can we get this function?

I have been going through the different threads of Tips for using the lounge and they seem to jump around a lot.

I have looked to see what Word Press addins are being use to define the forum, but there is not any clear information as to which are being use. It may help us help you in putting together a Help area that was really useful, if a list of this addins and links to information about was provided.

 

One of the Tips stated something about that the BCCode under line is not being used. Things like this needs to made available with out have to really dig into the depths of the threads.

Check the size of this PST file, if I remember right I think 2010 was sill at the 2GB limit. Then at 2013 it became unlimited.

If it is getting to be that size, the be sure to empty the “Deleted”, “Junk” and as much of the “Sent” that you can.

If you use any other OEM or retail DVD, you will wipe out the program to use “System Recover”.
Then you will HAVE to get a DVD from the HP for this machine, which I would do any way..
