I haven't gone through the setup procedure when you first run a new computer. I doubt you can install anything until you go through it. We don't know why you had the problems you had before, but

Hi, Thank you for this, as this is good to know. I will just use System Defender as my security, and I should be fine with that. Janet

Gene, Ok this makes sense. I do know the information from my Router to enter it, matter of fact, now that I finally thought about it, I can probably connect the Laptop to my Wi-FI just like I do

Windows 10 comes with its own antivirus and security software. I've been using this win10 machine for about a year. I have not set up any antivirus or security. I just use what came with

No, but when you connect your laptop to the WIFI, you will have to enter information on your laptop to allow it to connect. The laptop will see your router but when you tell it to connect, it will

HI Gene, System Defender sounds like it will be enough for me. Now though, speaking about Wi-Fi, my current PC is connected to my modem and Router, but I do know or so I've been told by ATT back in

As far as I know, you won't have to set up security if all you want to do is use the program Mivcrosoft provides with Windows. As I recall, its system Defender. You may want to use something in

Hi All, I'm just curious if Windows Ten is already installed on my Laptop, what might be left that I would need to do? I know I will need to set up an email program, install my screen reader, set up

I agree with you on that. It would be just like me to spill something in it before I could catch it. So, the best way to do it is just to not do it. Pam.

Hello All, I never have any liquid or food around my PC, so I will never have any of that around my Laptop either. That is not a smart thing to do in my opinion, unless I'm asking for trouble!

I don't, either. I figure it this way. I can't really be that lazy that I can't walk a few feet to have something to eat or drink. I spilled coffee on my keyboard at work, and somebody got up and

So, My file association window doesn't appear to be exactly the same as yours is, I don't get a combo box or selection that I need to use the arrow down to open. I just press the enter key on the

It downloads files where most programs do, in the downloads folder specified by Microsoft. If you checked in that folder, I don't know why you can't find the file. Gene

Hve you tried going to codecs and downloading the wav / wave codecs. This seems to be what Microsoft says you may be missing.

I am pretty green when it comes to Firefox. I downloaded a file from the CVS web site, and now I can't find it. Where does Firefox place its downloads if you haven't set a preference? Andy

It wasn't about what you typed. I'm saying that what you saw was for wab files in the list, not wave files. That's why when you pressed enter, you saw Windows contacts. My point is not to assume

Answering a couple of messages: If I typed wab, it was an accident. I tried VLC and it didn't play wave files either. Joe G.

I should have added that wab is a Windows address book file. Gene

It isn't wav. Its wab with a b. If something incongrous happens like that, check spelling. Gene

Why not try installing the VLC media player and see if that'll work better for you. http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html Stay safe and take care. Mike.
