That is pretty interesting reading. It named a tool or two I was not aware of and a couple that UVK can actually replace.

It is not "Can it be done?" but rather, "How can we do it?"

Heck, I can’t even seem to get people to run a simple virus scan. I can’t see many going thru this. :lol:

haha love the Format response Jim! Yes, we had a time when it first came out working as a remote tech so many customers completely lost... had one man 95 years old lol and using it. I was shocked :) 8.1 is better little improvement. However Windows 8-10 will not reconnect to the wifi when booted to smwn (safe mode with networkin) so always had to contact them back and ask them to please reconnect to their wifi . So was always happy to get a customer with 7. Glad the links are useful and happy to found a good forum. Thanks Guys!
