Windows 10 Installation Issues

Gjmontll, I never did analog computers, and thankfully I didn't have to mess with fire control when I served. I fixed the speed problem. It's a good thing too since the retreat feature can't find the files it supposedly saved. The problem was in firefox. I refreshed it and everything sped up. As I understand their explanation of refresh, it mostly throws away all your extensions and add ons. Something wasn't playing well with Win-10. Of course that doesn't explain why it waited a couple of weeks to become a problem. The jury is still out on the supposedly free operating system. I don't trust any company, especially big ones, to be truthful with their customers. There is a gotcha hiding out there.

I upgraded to 10 last night, so far I hate it marginally less than 8.1. Favorites is retarded.

Dump Mcafe, Norton, etc. They are utter garbage.

The best PC cleaners I've used: HerdProtect, JRT, Rkill, KVRT, adwcleaner, rootkit scan, and ESET.

I have had Norton since Day 1. I have no complaints with it. They have been there every time I needed them.

Windows 10 moved my Hobby Machinist link to the bottom of my favorites, I have filed a complaint with Microsoft support.

After resolving the issue with my video card, I have not had any more issues... happy with Windows 10 so far... and yes... had to organize the order of my bookmarks again...

Its official I HATE the MS Edge browser and have returned to Internet Explorer. I don't know what the hell they were thinking. You can't sort/organize your favorites without dragging them one by one and the stupid import couldn't even get them in the correct order and shoved all the folders to the bottom of the list. You can only see half as many favorites on the screen since each now occupies 2 lines. The dark color theme which is one of only what 3 is so lame you can't tell which tab you have selected because the color is almost the exact same color of tabs that are not selected. Its slow, even to close a window. The thing has bugs. Windows or tabs refuse to close. I right clicked a favorite and tried to remove it and it persisted, no error msg no nothing it just didn't work yet I was able to delete other links. You can't open a new browser window you have to open a new tab in the existing window then convert that to a new window? Good grief. Edge is possibly the stupidest browser design ever. I have designed and built software for over 25 years, I have been around since DOS and I just can't imagine how something this utterly lame gets built and released.

Ahahah but Coolidge how do you really feel about MS Edge? lol

There's a dark theme? I mostly dislike all web browsers so I guess I am willing to deal with them just long enough to do what I need. FF and chrome crash a lot, IE has rendering issues, Edge is just annoying. just realized that all my printers were missing after the upgrade. We do a lot of graphic printing from time to time so there are several printers installed for different purposes. That took a couple hours to correct.

Have you tried Opera? I've used it for 10 years & still like it.
