hehe.

 

That's alright, one of my good friends just bought their mother a $3k imac because their just so "user friendly!" and easier to use than any other computer.

Then again... this is someone who has had to have been taught how to drag and drop files multiple times.

I am not a computer expert however I can tell you things from my experience and from things I've heard on this site.

I'll try to help you as much as possible and suggest other things if needed.

Don't take this for granted and always do your own research!

Oh, sorry to hear that.  I would reinstall Windows and recover all my data from backups.

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.
