I don't stay logged in on this website. However, I sometimes find that other websites have logged me out after a Microsoft update. I don't know whether people's problems on this site might have something to do with updates?

I reactivated a laptop I had replaced by a newer one, it took several hours until all Windows updates were installed. It seems it's doing its purpose though it was intended for.

Sorry, but I'm a bit confused as I replied (or so I thought) on "What are you doing now" to Katharine's posts, but they are on "Computer Upgrades...".

The conversation began in 'What Are You Doing Now?' but I moved it to 'Computer Upgrades, Issues and Conventions' on 23rd January. Sorry to have confused you!
