Hello All!

I have been using these forums under the sevenforums for sometime but I am now using these great forums for Win10. I still work with Computers and software. I still have older Dos & Windows systems at home so I can run older programs and not forget how some things work. (DOS, Windows 3.11, Win98se, WinXP, Win7 and now Win10)

I like to get nostalgic and play older DOS games. (Starflight, Wasteland, SimCity 2000, Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, X-Com, Lemmings, Dark Forces, etc ) The classic's I played when I lived on my own.

Thanks for making such a great resource with real fixes!
I'm happy there is a resource here for figuring out why Microsoft is doing what they do under Windows 10.

I am 'old school' computer person (80 years old!) I started 'tinkering' with computers with early 8 bit IBM desktop with two Shubert 5 1/4 " floppies. One held the OS and the other the programs. I spent a while as Computer System Analyst for Pharmaceutical Co. and later a Bank. Now I just 'fiddle'.

Welcome to Ten Forums

nothing wrong in 'fiddling', it's what keeps the brain active And you'll find that you are not the oldest member here either.
