Re: [Framers] Windows 10 "hijacked" my computer

2016-04-30 Thread Syed Zaeem Hosain
If you stick with the automatic upgrade, just make sure to install Belarc 
Advisor (free) and record the Windows 10 set of installation keys somewhere 
safe - I sent an e-mail to my personal Gmail account with that info. 

This way, if the system ever crashes on you like it did to me, you have a set 
of Windows 10 license keys available to do a clean install from, using an ISO 
download from Microsoft's web site.

Re: [Framers] Windows 10 "hijacked" my computer

2016-04-30 Thread Ken Poshedly
Just a follow-up to let all know that I re-installed Windows 10 this morning 
(Saturday) and so far, all _seems_ to be ok (or even good).
I made sure to check that my Adobe stuff, Mozilla Firefox and Eudora all work 
as expected -- and they do (at least right now).
More news as it happens . . . 

And now back our regularly scheduled techie questions.

 Hi Carol,
I assume that you are also on that list but perhaps my name (Ken in Atlanta) 
got by you. I've been using Eudora since I got it when I transferred from 
Mindspring as a dial-up customer to Bellsouth to begin the long, painful 
process of getting DSL (15 years ago or more) and never looked back. 

I never could get Bellsouth or its new owner (AT) to get DSL to me, but 
instead got ADSL (asynchronous DSL, at 1.5 mbps) instead. Ugh! It was only 
a month ago that U-verse was FINALLY made available in my neighborhood. SO I'm 
in and now have both upload and download speeds of 35-40 mbps. 

I've been on the Eudora email list for years and am one of the MANY who can't 
get over the wealth of knowledge that Katrina passes down to us from on high.
I'm also one of those who just in the past week got past that nasty problem 
with security certificates.
Perhaps "curmudgeonly" is a bit strong, though "sometimes exasperated" really 
comes to mind. So far, nobody's actually torn into her for being so . . . 
"direct".
But, yeah, Eudora, Katrina and the list are just tops!
KEN IN ATLANTA!

Win 10 is okay in most respects, but some software won't run as 
expected. I used for instance WSftp, a nice ftp software, but it will 
not work properly unless updated. That said, I am in the same situation 
as you and curses each day Microsoft for their bossy approach to the
