QUOTE: programs at same time or inadvertently shuts down not knowing updating is taking place in the back-ground. Easy to do on systems with slower CPU's or less memory.
"Notify me" is best and the updates should be done at a secure site as soon as possible, and don't run other programs or mess with the computer until the installations have finished. Pay attention and follow the instructions.
YUP... that's what we try to do because we depend on help with these kinds of issues. Not everyone can become tech savvy as fast as this stuff changes ... especially if we start of non-tech savvy to begin with. We'd have to learn all the obsolete stuff as well as the new stuff that replaces it -- pretty near impossible.
Most of the time, we're pretty satisfied with how the laptop runs - but then, someone in the tech world makes a change, which forces us to make a change we'd rather not make. And that's when the 'fun' starts.
As an example: The issue with Wdw8 -- and not only us tech-stupids either, as MS is releasing another OS because Wdw8 WAS/IS such a mess for a lot of folks.
We spent quite a few buck returning to the Wdw7 systems on three computers, and are very happy with the results - our electronics systems work fine again ... and that's the real issue. It's obviously (with us at least) not about saving a few bucks, it's getting the system to operate as we want it to operate.
We expect sometime in the future, we'll have to adjust again to another system, but for now, we're pleased we got this done and are back on track. RV.net is always a great help - everyone contributes a variety of knowledge to assist other RV.net members with issues ... a great forum.
