Windows 10

I updated to Windows 10 yesterday. I expected I might need 2 days to do the job, but except for some minor glitches, everything went OK. I am still learning how to navigate and to find things, but mostly it isn’t hard.

Edge browser though is quite different from Internet Explorer. My AVG Free antivirus sent me a message that it can’t protect me thoroughly because Edge does not use extensions which I guess AVG needs to totally identify threats. I thought I might change to Avast, but it looks like most of the anti-virus programs do not feel Edge is a good browser currently. Hmmm.

I have a few books I want to review for you, but I have been busy making some household changes and helping my sister-in-law with her new laptop computer. So much work to transfer files, set up programs, etc. especially because her old computer shuts down every 10 minutes. We found the Windows 10 email app woefully underwhelming so I still need to help her download an email client. I stuck with Windows Live and everything was loaded in at the time of my upgrade. It works like it did on Windows 7.

I also have been spending some gift money donated to the retirement library. I bought 20 books and have been processing them. One delightful aspect of this shopping was meeting a sweet older lady in Half Price Books who shared with me another source of Christian fiction books at half of Half Price Books charges. I visited there, and she was right. I never would have looked in this bargain outlet store for those kinds of books. Mostly remaindered books so in very good condition. Not as many books as Half Price Books, and certainly not as many non-inspirational books, but a good fit for my library users. God put that lady in my path so I could stretch my funds. PTL!
