I am famous for having an incredible memory - but not for having an incredibly good memory. But my recollection is that for a long time if I left-clicked on any part of a window which did not have focus, the only thing that happened was that that the window was given focus. Nothing else. But...

When MS first tried to update me to 22H2 it broke my laptop. Thanks to kind help from members of this great forum in another thread I finally got my laptop working again. But now I have read that MS is going to give it another try. Apparently what broke my machine was not enough scratch space...

Thanks much to everyone who has responded to this thread. I now have a functioning Win 11 system. But I don't have 22H2. (Actually I don't recall ever seeing what update it was trying to install but I am guessing 22H2.) Whatever it was trying to install I'd guess it will try again someday. I...

FreeBooter: The menu no longer contains "Command Prompt" -

FreeBooter, What is the software which you are starting with? I.E. the app/software which displays this menu? Thanks, Bob

Thanks VERY MUCH FreeBooter! Unfortunately, I can't get back to this today. But I will certainly be working on it tomorrow. And again, thanks very much for your response. Bob

Booted my Lenovo laptop this morning to find that it was in the middle of an update. Had a lot on my mind and didn't pay much attention. But I saw it go from 11% complete to over 20% complete - it was going VERY slowly. Then it evidently needed a reboot. Now I have been looking at this...

Hi, I've just installed a new Lenovo Legion Tower and ran thru the setup process. I did not import anything from an existing system. The desktop has a number of icons on the left side of the desktop: The first four I understand. But the last four I do not. I've done nothing with WhatsApp...

Thanks very much dbartenstein. Any idea why the width varies? Or will the blue/active always be longer? Bob

I've just noticed recently that some icons in the taskbar have colored bars beneath them. What are the bars and colors telling me? Image of taskbar attached. Thanks, Bob

I plead confusion! I was confused first by the experience with Adobe Reader DC which was downloaded from the Adobe site and which installed without a problem. In fact that still confuses me. But I was also confused by the fact that the first three choices in Advanced app settings are all...

I was able to get it installed but had to change this setting: My thanks to the several responders. Bob
