Please Scroll down to view my new Windows 11 Info & Desktop:
WINDOWS 11, NOW REQUIRED, WINDOWS 10 NOT SUPPORTED;
Please note; your Windows 10 computer will still work OK for at least another year.
You DO NOT HAVE to upgrade or buy another Laptop or Desktop Computer.
IF uou can upgrade, here is some advice:
1. Windows 11 boots up to the desktop much faster, in just mere seconds. (Win 10 can take 3 minutes)
>>> {Unfortunately, with all the "Security Updates" the boot time is now a bit longer, but still is faster than Windows 10. {They have damaged another good Opering System once again.}
2. Updates still take only one or two minutes. (Gone are the one hour updates) {Still OK}
3. The included Start Menu includes a convenient Search Box. (Windows 7 had this)
4. They have finally made operation much more simple. (I am very pleased with Windows 11)
5. Newer Dell and other Computers will upgrade from W-10 to W-11 for free.
Using my experience with computers over many years, may I respectfully suggest you eventually purchase a Dell or HP system only. Customer Service on other brands is dismal. Also, please ask for a minimum of 8 Gigabytes Memory. A 4 Gigabyte Memory unit will work somewhat slower but is OK for light duty. The system I use has 16 Gigabytes Memory and 4 cores, giving me 8 logical processors. It is therefore a fast system. However if you shop carefully you can find many such computers with these strong features.
OK to phone me if you have any questions, please. This is a hobby/passtime and I still welcome calls.

OFFI CE 365?
I suggest older versions, as this program is only on the Cloud, and I find 365 hard to use. Use Office 2024 or older instead, for trusted local use.

ETERNITY
DO YOU HAVE ANY COPIED CD's or DVD's?
These "burned" disk copies will go BAD in as little as 5 years,
and you can count on these copies will be unreadable in 10 years.
FIX: Copy CD's and DVD's to a USB FLASHDRIVE.
They will last forever.

WARNING SCAM ALERT
For those who are somewhat technical, there is a
serious problem of Windows 11 booting to another
account, or even a deleted account.
Websites offer solutions that DO NOT FIX THIS.
Here is a FIX THAT WORKS.
If you know how to edit the Registry, great.
Here is what works:
Change the following registry entries to remove the "ghost" profile logon.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\DefaultUserName = blank (no = sign)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\AutoAdminLogon = 0 (Zero)
Reboot.

Want to buy a powerful
Windows 11 Computer at a
great price?
DO NOT HAVE $1,000 + TO SPEND?
You can purchase a DELL Windows 11
computer that is refurbished and comes
with a warranty for less than $350. This is
with Windows 11 Professional and 16/64
gigabytes memory. WOW!

FAKE WEB pages disguised as a

Simple FIX: Just HOLD down the power button for seven seconds or unplug the computer. Restart the computer and the webpage is GONE!
