zim,

Oh, right, Cortana. I got some messages and turned it off. Don't ask me how, I've been running this awhile.

When I hear your issues, I can only say thank goodness I didn't run into too many problems, as Win XP was killing me, correction, the last one was Win 8. I really do believe they sabotage systems to get you to move on, because every single time they came out with a new release, I had trouble with the old one. Update: I really liked XP, but it went south.

The thing I like best with Win 10 is it manages memory better. I currently have 79 tabs open on 6 open Chrome windows. I just counted and it shocked me!

Now that you mention it, my few songs (est 10) disappeared except in one ancient backup file. I don't even try to find them anymore. I thought someone hacked me and deleted them, so I'm happy that didn't happen.

I find itunes user interface to be absolutely horrific, I have problems every time I try and use it. I do iphone backups and have no clue if my contacts are being backed up or anything else except apps. Apple's behind the curve. That said, I wouldn't mind having an ipad to read books on and backup the iphone. But that's not happening, can't afford it.

Lkorrow> What is that dog magical assistant thing? I never heard of that. . . .

Dear Linda,
Was it called Cortana? Some sort of electronic computer
assistant and it kept trying to 'help' me. It wanted
more and more personal type information . . . It wanted
to keep all my passwords for me . . .

I found it to be more of an irritant than anything else.
Also, I don't like that windoze wants me to put everything
under 'my documents' . . . I prefer to set up multiple
sub-directories (sometimes on separate drives) for
filing all my stuff. I never really want to store my
files in 'my documents'.

And I really like to have my computer play the music I
like as background noise while working (playing?) on
my computer.

And then win-10 defaulted to running sound out some
non-existent head phones - instead of out the computer
speakers I use. So, no noise till I googled and found
out what the dingbats did . . . And let us not forget
that windoze wants to hide music files so I can't find
and make archive copies (backups in case a hard drive
goes to that bit bucket in the sky on me).

The Guru at work thinks win-10 is the greatest thing
since sliced bread . . .

I still like my old XP machine.

Zim.
