Greetings, oh Wise Ones. I installed software for my Sigma lens yesterday, and the forum has frozen twice today.

For a very long time, the computer also has a nasty habit of making the screen go...

post deleted, found how to fix the problem.

Just add "Wait 1/2 an hour," and you've got a GU. :P

Well well well. Treesize let me in as an administrator and I got into temp files then logs and just sent a heap of stuff to the recycle bin. I took a punt and deleted a whole bunch of files that...

I have done that and it actually used up a bit space. Have no idea why.

Well Treesize works and shows that windows take 136 GB. Now I can see what is using all the storage, what can I do about it?

How reliable is Treesize? Will they try and add some other unwanted software at all?

G'day, all. My computer is now as full as a public drop dunny after a long weekend.

I had to do a disc clean up and I have copied all of my pics onto removable storage and uninstalled a whole...

Hello, and welcome to the forum. Slip over to the intro section and tell us a bit about yourself and your patrol.

As this is a computer thread, have you tried to turn it off and back on again?
...

Yep. Doesn't mean she'll let me get one if I find a good unit one though.

Probably right. I'm looking for a camper, similar to Kallen's to build up.

Have signed in to fleabay hoping that it would allow me to browse, without the waiting for 20seconds to nearly a minute or so for each page to load. No success. Also Gumtree and the like are getting...

Ha ha. Shoulda let Plassy suffer for a couple of hours. Although I had to look for the narrator in the windows menu and turn it off. The windows enter doesn't work for me.

I have just noticed I have ads at the bottom of the page now. Is that the norm or what?

OK, Cool. It says I've had 9 cookies from here and 29 from other sites. Can't be bloody right, 'cause I'm still hungry.

This ! symbol has started turning up on this site. Does it mean something bad?

Do I want to give in and let Microsoft install Windows 10 or is it not a good idea?

Yay!! Adobe is installed without mcafee. It works too. Thanks blokes for your time and patience.

It only comes up with WMC or wordpad, which reads all the files in computer language.

mudnutette reckons I need Adobe reader, but that comes with %#^$# mcafee.

Yeah, not gunna fly:( I tried typing file explorer into the search function and got nothing.. It was definitely a pfd. It is trying to open all pdfs in windows media. Something is wrong somewhere....

I am not using windows 10, as I've read that you get stooged and end up having to pay for it.

I am using Chrome. Ha! I tried to read a pdf for young muddy nut's camera on the wordpad and it read it as computer language. When downloaded it, I saved it to the desktop and it saved as a windows...

I tried to open the GU manual I saved on a USB stick, and Windows Media Centre opened. It is happening everytime I try and read a pdf.

What do setting do I change to read pdfs as normal?

Thanks, Blokes. Phew! Last time a supposed "Anti-Malware" company wriggled its way onto the computer, we had to wipe it and start again. Cheers.
