Re: UPS my choice help needed
Gerald Levy
Troy, even if you specify instructions on UPS My Choice that the driver knock on your door whenever a package is delivered or send you a text message to confirm delivery, there is no guarantee that these instructions will be followed. The best you can do is to track the progress of your package on the day it is supposed to be delivered. Enter the UPS tracking number into the Google search field and visit the tracking results page, and refresh it frequently, like every 15 minutes or so, and as soon as you see that your package has been delivered, go outside yourself and fetch it if the driver does not deliver it to the front door and knock. What really bothers me about this new UPS policy of not delivering to the front door is that the driver is supposed to obtain a signature from the customer to confirm delivery, but instead, some lazy drivers will simply dropthe the package outside the residence, scrawl a signature themselves, and bolt off, and there is really nothing you can do about it because UPS customer service will give you a run around even if you demand to speak to a supervisor. Good luck.

Re: reading a Microsoft excel sheet letter by letter
Gene
I never use NVDA up arrow; I find it much more convenient to use numpad
8. So I had forgotten that command. As far as NVDA up arrow is
concerned, it is much better to be in object review if you are going to use
it. It is more reliable because by default, NVDA will always move to the
object you move to.

NVDA+up arrow in laptop keyboard layout is the command to move to the
previous line with the review cursor.
Up arrow on the number pad is numpad 8, which reads the current line in
review which, if the review cursor hasn't moved from the current location,
should work similar to NVDA+up arrow in desktop layout or NVDA+L in laptop
layout.

Ok, I can find command prompt, but it has been a long while since I have used it. You said to type: chkdsk /f /r e: I totally get the chkdsk, which is to check disk but now to understand the rest.since my drive is the E drive, I assume that I change the /f to, /e? Then what is the /r e: for? And lastly, do I leave all the spaces in there as you have them? Thanks for any help.

Hi,

I've never seen a text alert like that I just find text alerts for all movement for a package. Admittedly I haven't played with account settings in a while. Have you tried signing in via the UPS app on an iDevice perhaps it'll be friendlier. Have you tried different browsers? Sorry I can't be of more help. I do know there's an area under your profile to specify location for where to leave packages as to whether they always comply with that is still up in the air but at least it's notated. Sorry I can't be of more help. Their site isn't the easiest or most intuitive but then neither is the US post office so there's that. Now that you have a my choice account perhaps calling into UPS might yield more help? Robin

Re: How to dlete pre-installed software on a windows 10 computer

I have had many computers of most brands, and have always removed the brand named software, it’s the first thing I do, and have never experienced any issues.

My understanding is that some computer manufacturers use their software for certain functions and that the Windows software may not support the functions or may not be available or may have to be configured. We'll see what others say. I don't know enough about the subject to do other than say that I don't think it is a good idea to just delete things without knowing what they do, if the computer is currently using any of them for any function you want, such as your wireless connections, and how you get Windows to take over any functions you might lose.
Just in general, some, perhaps many people, delete things just because they don't want them. I very strongly believe that things shouldn't be deleted unless you know what they are and that you will never need or want them.
