Network PC's in Win 10 (1803)

Sounds like a plan. I picked up some good tips from your "unofficial guide" which must have taken you a good while to write...thanks for taking the time to write it.

 

I've found that people just dismiss any OS that aren't used to. I know it's a pain to start learning again but it does open up new, or different ways of doing things.

Thanks for the positive response. A neighbour asked me to help with his Notebook which had Vista on it and could not connect to the Router - was looking to try to get upgrade to Windows 10. I showed him Zorin 12.3 which:

1. Picked up network instantly in live mode.

2. Picked up his Canon printer as soon as selected 'add printer'

Case closed!

[Well I started a new topic as promised but Moderators did not approve it - perhaps it is something to do with algorithms? https://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11871877&postcount=1

Mention Vista again and you'll be sent to stand in the corner

Mind you, the jury is still out between Vista and Win 8. Both utter nails IMO.

Vista is one showboat I missed. 8.1 was OK, but then you had to have been using something like Pear Linux (http://linux.softpedia.com/get/System/Operating-Systems/Linux-Distributions/Pear-Linux-76309.shtml) to understand it (a former moderator on Zorin reliably informed me that two ex-Canonical employees designed the DE - and the 'overview' function of the Windows key in Win 10 has also come from Ubuntu/Gnome Shell as the exact same function is available under Zorin (but you will have read that anyway in the manual. )
