I have three daughters who are all Zoomers (Gen Z) and they all love Win 7. They all multi-boot their OS but they keep returning to Win 7. None of them understands why Windows couldn't come up with a better OS since then and they ask me about this as though it's my fault that they didn't.

Cuts me off at 5. Did you know that if you run a network you can scan your PC for viruses via other PCs using several different virus scanners? No virus scanner gets it all. This is narrows down the window for contracting a virus. By using multiple operating systems you can use different virus scanners with no risk of conflict.

Did you mean to say "May 2024" instead of "July 2023"?
Well, I stand corrected. I just realized that I had confused the date Microsoft finally pulled the plug on the free upgrade to Windows 10, and the last Simplix update. Thanks for correcting me, flavalle. I hate to give out false information! I really need to be more careful, as I'm in my seventies now, and well, these things happen....

You're welcome.
I'm also a member of "The 70's Club".
I'll be upgrading to "The 80's Club" in about 17 months.
So far, the brain cells are still working fine.
