If you are getting too many replies and you are all sorted (good news) mark it as solved and give the person / people who helped you a like or a helpful so they know their comments helped solve the issue

The Hive: I've seen posts about closing threads, but can't find any button, menu, help, etc that says how to do that. With all the buttons above this line like Preview none say close thread. Can you enlighten me?

bottom left of your post is the like button, click it and select correct icon.

to close thread, go to top of first page on left click mark as solved

The Hive: Bright Green, I don't know why I didn't see it before. Maybe I didn't scroll up far enough thinking marking the end would be at the end. Thank You.

If you have tried marking the thread as solved and this post shows up, that does not work. It does not close the thread. I may be wrong but I think only admins can do that.

Glad it's working out. Being OCD I would have done a reset and started again with the out of box experience and adding username :) Then transfer files from external drive onto the new computer.
