computers
I have notice how many people, not necessarily on here, who can't fix the basic computer problems that occur.I am no expert,far from it, but willing to have a go at sorting them out. Many problems can be answered by typing on the internet what it is, but very few even think of looking there, or that is what I found.

Re: computers
The internet is definitely the best way to solve problems as the 'help' programmes on computers are completely useless. Even so, some problems are unsolvable unless you are prepared to change your system or download programmes and updates something that really annoys me as invariably it mucks up something else.

It is extremely rare that an up date causes more problems - operating systems updates are tested extensively by a large posse of brave computer users before they are released. Occasionally a flaw does sneak through but it is usually one that only affects a very limited number of users.
The OP is quite right, most problems can be solved by a judicious search on Google. If you need to be shown how to fix it try the same search on Youtube.

Re: computers
Since my computer updated to windows 10 I can do nothing with it all.Every time my iPad updates it wipes various passwords that I have to give one time numbers for they are never one time so I have to ring up the people to reset everything again .
I hate computers..
I.cant do anything with my sodding TV because it tells me to consult the internet .
That comes over the internet too .
I am lost .

I'm very good at keeping all of our own computers working smoothly (Linux and Windows 10), mainly because I've never been worried about messing up software installations. I've learned a lot over the years by making mistakes and digging myself out of trouble.
Our computers rarely give any bother these days but if it happens to any great degree, it's nothing to for me to reinstall the operating systems and programs, or use a disk image to overwrite a faulty system with a good one.
