  2. How to stop Office 2010 install pop up.

    My Office 2010 Pro is still functioning as it did the day it was installed. However I often see the attached pop up so I don't want to risk installing it again. My wife sometimes uses my PC as she networks in to Money 2005 on my PC through her PC. She would not know what to do if this pops up...

  4. Lost connection to file on this PC from my Wife's PC, used to now not.

    My wife had access to a specific file on my PC, for some reason she can no longer do that. Her PC used to be seen on the Network from my PC now it's not there. I Have no idea why and I cannot remember how I set it up. The File is 'shared' on my PC.
  5. Solved Where have the nice startup photos and info gone? Replaced with a boring blue squiggle.

    Today I got a nice photo on the lock screen again, so maybe the problem was the bug. I don't think I changed any settings in personalization when I looked through the options but hey, it's back (y):-)
  6. Solved Where have the nice startup photos and info gone? Replaced with a boring blue squiggle.

    Thank you for the link, however I do not have a clue as to what I should do. Why on earth do I have to go through all these instructions (Which I will probably mess up) when I didn't ask for the photos to be removed? An old phrase it is but here it is very appropriate; 'If it aint busted don't...

    All of a sudden my startup screen has started showing the boring blue screen instead of the nice photos it did before. I have looked at this forum and the Personalization section of the settings. but have not found how to get this back. Any suggestions?
  8. Solved How to save login credentials for a network PC.

    Hello Bree. Thank you. Sorted in 2 mins, what threw us was the credentials box kept advising the username or password was incorrect :oops: And of course not being able to see the wood for the trees!!
  9. Solved How to save login credentials for a network PC.

    Didn't find anything for RDP that looked remotely computer-ish and I didn't really understand SMB about using the Control Panel (I assume that is the older Control Panel that's been around for decade's?) In Win11 it looks like Microsoft has split many parts of the old Control Panel which makes...
  10. Solved How to save login credentials for a network PC.

    Thank you for the reply, being a non tech OAP I will need to find my 'protocol' and what RDP and SMB are short for. Nothing untoward but there are some confidential files that I need to keep confidential.
  11. Solved How to save login credentials for a network PC.

    There is a file on my PC that my wife needs access to, I had this setup on my Win10 and had no problems. I have managed to access the file but only by clicking on the Network icon of her PC then I have to enter all the credentials again of my PC before she can access it. Is there a Save...

  15. Updated to 11 but need a new Pro License, where from?

    Basically my current PC was too old to update to Win11, so with lots of help on the 10 Forum I have now loaded Win11 Pro on my new build. I would like to keep my current old PC going for the time being. Why? I have no idea but it could come in handy sometime. It's working fine so little reward...
