General Discussion / Ed Bott: Win10 Spring Creators Update (1803) Coming in April.
« on: March 21, 2018, 08:03:15 PM »
Ed Bott's advice: "Windows 10 Spring Creators Update 1803: Act fast to delay this big upgrade."

Evidently, the Home Edition cannot delay the upgrade. The best idea is to be sure that you have backed up your operating system drive c:\ in case there are serious flaws and you need to recover and try to install it again after the upgrade is corrected and finalized.

8 Alternative Search Engines To Find What Google Can’t:

Make Use Of: https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/pause-google-8-alternative-search-engines-to-find-what-google-cant/


Update: 3/10/2018

One of my most utilized search engines is DuckDuckGoog (not DuckDuckGo). "Goog" does a much more thorough search than "Go", and includes photos, which "Go" seems to overlook. Give DuckDuckGoog a try and I think you might prefer it to the more commonly used DuckDuckGo.  http://www.duckduckgoog.com/

General Discussion / Suggestions for a free Windows 10 photoviewer? UD 2-25-18 (WIN10 Viewer back).
« on: February 19, 2018, 10:31:19 PM »
The latest "upgrade" for Windows 10 does not offer a basic photo viewer as has been the case up to this point. >>>> (As of 2-24-18, the Windows 10 photo viewer has been restored by a subsequent update.) Does anyone feel that they know of a worthy free photo viewer program to install in the new Windows 10?
