    Paul, hello.

    You did notice that I was +/- absent on your site, sorry.

    I have been some busy as a W-10 Insider and other things in life, specifically,
    my spouse who is quite affected by this dreaded Alzheimer.

    I wish in parting to thank all here who suffered my typing along all these years of fine fun and learning. I could not just disappear without saying goodbye, there are too many to mention all by name.

    Godspeed to all. Jean.

    I have an OCD problem, besides my medical shortcomings.

    I have been some busy as a W-10 Insider and other things in life, specifically, my spouse who is quite affected by this dreaded Alzheimer.

    Ah, a real life! Where can I download one of those? ;-)

    You are a lucky man with a fine missus, Jean. The plot line for a movie "50 First Dates" comes to mind, and represents a positive wish on my behalf. BTW, there have been wonderful outcomes with sufferers of that old folks ailment, when treated with familiar music & singing.

    I wish in parting to thank all here who suffered my typing along all

    The pleasure is all mine. Thank you for being a good mate, mate.

    Godspeed to all. Jean.

    Bon voyage, mon ami!

    Cheers,
    Paul.

    Hello Jean,

    Long time no read.

    specifically, my spouse who is quite affected by this dreaded
    Alzheimer.

    Now I know why.

    I wish in parting to thank all here who suffered my typing along all
    these years of fine fun and learning. I could not just disappear
    without saying goodbye, there are too many to mention all by name.

    Oh no, that is really sad reading, but you know what they say about
    radio amateurs, "They always come back".

    I think (hope) that you'll also come back.

    Until then, I'll always remember you.

    Take good care of Her.
    Good Ones are hard to find.

    Hopefully M$ will accept Your suggestions on WINTEN, what I read at www.askwoody.com doesn't make me want to buy a newer computer with a
    Windows GUI on it.
    Do You read what Woody Leonhard writes and the good Comments others
    make on his articles?

    I wish in parting to thank all here who suffered my typing along all

    Sorry to see Your BBS Time going QRT, but She Is Important!

    Godspeed to all. Jean.

    Have a Wonderful Easter Sunday. God Bless.

    Yes it was automatically installed on the laptop, but to get it to the stationary 10pro machine, I had to manually check for the updates.

    According to info I have it should be automatically installed on a Pro
    machine, unless it's connected to a metered system.

    I have in vain tried to find the setting for metered connection in the stationary machine, but nil. On the laptop I have stumbled over it, and apparently set it to NO (metered).

    Another item:

    As you may remember, I lost my spouse in 2012. What has kept me sane,
    are the Fidonet and amateur radio hobbies, and the daily outdoor 1 hour+ exercises.

    There's no question that I don't miss her, but I have not let it take
    over my mind..
