It is, but it is something you need to be able to do. Hard drives just stop, sometimes, or the cat pees in the power supply (bad for both, that was!) and you need to have a plan of where all your docs are backed up and where all your apps can be reinstalled from. If not, who is it you should blame for your nightmare? I upgraded an ancient machine (it has a genuine Windows XP sticker on it) from 32-bit W8 to 64-bit W10, and it was a process, and it tooks some planning and preparation, but I've got a spiffy and speedy clean install. Now using ALL its RAM, it's a much more fun machine. Dan Freeman, A Prince Among Men, spent some time as a traveling trainer, and had to install piles of stuff on a regular basis. He said that Freemanizing (tm) -- erasing everything and starting from scratch -- was the best way to eliminate whole classes of problems with performance, un-installable software, irreproducible bugs, and DLL Hell. I agree. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/cacw6n4txryb3mzbny5xu6chdxag3o5yp+1rgr89godohzuj...@mail.gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
