The very last thing I need in life is a third world war. After that come cars and/or computer operating systems with any sort of a tendency to rat me out to Big Brother....

I'm still searching for stuff that got relocated.
Just found my "favorites".
Why is every new release a scavenger hunt?

I did modify my privacy settings and decided what I want to keep.

Windows 10 is now working nicely on one of my computers.

@Region Philbis,

8.1
I was using IE, but now am confronted by "Edge".
I had to mess around with dots, lines and other iconography in the upper
left hand corner before I found what I was looking for.
And what's up with trying to jam Bing down everybody's throat?

Microsoft had "open" access to their customer bit-lockers encrypted hard drives to anyone with a court order, as the passwords/keys are now backup to Microsoft, in case you are so dumb you to had forgotten your top secret passwords/keys.

Never did trust Microsoft not to placed a backdoor into bit-locker in any case and use open source and recently audit truecrypt, however now there is no question that Microsoft is bending over for the the government when it come to bit-locker.

@ehBeth,

It will get slower as updates are added. That's one of the drawbacks of updating Windows. It gets slower with each update. Enjoy the speed while it lasts.

@Butrflynet,

One of the options in the security area had to do with removing background apps - which they note will slow things down. I pulled about 10 -things are faster than they were an hour ago. I'm going to make a mental note to keep checking that particular drop-down to look for apps to delete.

There was something in the security area about connections with phones. I shut mine off.

@George,

I did.

there was a default to ON - I clicked - it went to OFF

I started at settings ... went to security and then poked around - it was somewhere after turning off access to the webcam and microphone

___

I'm sure there are instructions, but I'm one of those guys (disguised as a woman) who doesn't like to follow instructions
