Difficulty post from Win10 Computer
« on: October 09, 2016, 05:43:51 PM »
Hi folks
I've tried a couple of times to post from my desktop comp but for some reason it doesn't want to play nicely.
It won't allow me to use the OzSToc emoticons either. Any suggestions?

Are you using internet explorer, if so you will need to into its settings.

Or download and use firefox.

I've been using chrome for several years across win7,8,10 and never had any difficulty. The only time I ever use internet explorer is for cross checking when a web site doesnt behave properly but its very rare these days to find any problems of that nature.
Its a popular game to blame windows 10 upgrades for everything that goes wrong with your computer, but it has proven to be a very stable and fast OS compared to most previous windows versions.

A lot of issues come from not upgrading third party software.

The only issue I found with WIN10 (on the laptop) was trying to remove Heather as a second user. Though I could remover her "log in" details it still left her user files etc. there. Eventually all fixed by just doing a factory restore back to WIN8.1.

As for stability my current WIN8.1 PC (the one I'm using) has been rock solid. I did do the WIN10 upgrade which slowed the start/shut down times dramatically which I put up with for about a week before returning it back to WIN8.1.

In my opinion Win10 is the best version to date.

I've been happy with Win 10 and I've purchased 2 copies of Win 10 Pro (at AS299 each).
However, Chrome started playing up today and I've swapped across to Edge until I can work out what is going on.

Been using Win 10 since beta and Chrome with it. Very happy, very stable.
