No, I did not.
I questioned it as it "appears" to be mine but it's not.
I was reviewing my Posts, looking for ones, I needed to reply to or indicate Solved.
This one is NOT mine and I do not know where it came from.

It depends upon where you looked. It would automatically show up as a subscribed thread if you set that up since you posted in it. That would cause it to show up under settings in the box that says "Subscribed Threads with New Posts." If you selected the option to show your posts it will show up but it shouldn't if you selected to show under your threads. If you opened your profile and then activity it'll show up there since you replied to it.

Pros and cons of 7 vs 10

To all, I apologize for not responding. I committed the flaw of crating login credentials and then didn't document my PW and forgot it. I just now was able to reset it.

I GREATLY appreciate all the great advice and suggestions. As it is, I have started using r#dfox browser and it has resolved the problems with sites refusing to allow my system to interact with them, specifically banking.
I'm considering an alternative to windows, but I have several software which I suspect only work in a windows environment. IE MS Project as one.
Another alternative I may implement is setting up the Thinkpad as a dual boot machine, so as to try other systems.

I'm currently on Win10. I am considering returning to Windows 7. I'm looking for opinions about this.

I pray it doesn't hurt too badly!
Looking at your system specifications, it won't hurt at all.
