Computer Help and Support

as well as the "safety" features. I had to argue with it quite a bit to get it to go back into the background so I could use my tried and true safety programs. I use IObit software exclusively for safety. I have had a virus, malware, or anything else on my computers since I started using them. I swear by this software. MS hates it, of course.

Also, I'm a techie and I want my computer "just so"... and MS hates the way I want to use it (LOL)

I have one computer in house using 11; I have using 10. I prefer using 10 to using 11. Once I got 11 tamed, there really isn't much difference. It'll just take time and patience to get 11 to the point where you feel comfortable with it. If you don't have the time, put off the upgrade.

And please heed the warning on your peripherals! Make sure your printer, scanner, etc, will work under the upgrade!!! If they work under 10, they should. But it never hurts to be certain. I had one printer in house that didn't pass muster, and it was only a few years old AND it was an HP. By all rights, I felt it should have worked just fine. If I'd had patience, I probably could have found drivers to work with it. I just ran out of patience. But this is the kind of thing you could run into.

We keep around 4-6 working computers in the house (counting laptops), if you have an extra one laying around that'll handle the upgrade, I'd suggest doing it as a sandbox first and see if you like it; then apply the upgrade to your office system. We're electronic freaks around here, tho. Not everyone is the same as us, I know. But to be honest, it's not all top rated equipment. Most of it is 5 years old or older. Although I did just buy my latest (and probably my last) system 2 weeks ago. But it's only an I5. Had a little money saved up and thought I was looking at picking up some work on the side (that fell thru, natch... still looking). I do a lot of cannibalism around here with parts (gryn). Built my grandsons two good working systems out of nothing for their little games!
