Hello. I was a computer programmer pre PC programming (ie mainframe) and saw the dangers of what people can do when they think they know it all. They manipulate data or bypass procedure to "fix" a problem and propagate other problems. So, I believe "a little knowledge is a dangerous thing" and can wreak havoc when you tweak this or that, and then it shows what you really know (eg messing with the registry when you have insufficient knowledge). I don't have sufficeient knowledge to do what I had hope and therefore am here to obtain resolutions to any computer issues I might. Thank you in advance.

You will find plenty here willing to share their knowledge, and a very comprehensive tutorial section.

Hi, I'm a 70 year old pastor/evangelist's gtm.org wife with one adult son. I've been computing seriously since 1985 when I found a Coco II for $50 at a local mall's sidewalk sale. I learned that language then and HTML starting around 1992, when I started to go crazy making web sites about horses... mainly their color genetics. hippo-logistics.com
Then I lost interest, and now mainly use my HP laptop running Windows 11 to keep in touch with friends and family around the country and globe, and work as our church's financial secretary and assistant pastor. Thanks for providing this forum!

Hello! Older PC gaming enthusiast here, due to being busy at work and other life stuff I kinda dropped out of the loop of tech and others some years back and am slowly trying to climb back in. Hope you guys have had a good start to the year!
