Back in December I mused:
I've yet to try the W7 laptop to see if it has the same challenge waiting for me.
Well I found out yesterday that it is cursed with the same issue. I don't know if I can really be bothered faffing around (again) to get to catch up.
This all came about because of the Windows 10 update thread elsewhere in this august group. I ran my W 10 laptop yesterday and away it went. Took about 90 minutes to download the update(s) and about another 90 minutes to install it. I wondered whether I would ever get it back. However it seemed happy enough at the end of the ordeal, Classic Shell was still there as the user interface, and there were no unwanted "extras".
Now to start the W7 laptop and see how simple this mightn't be....
