My situation is this. I have an 11 year old laptop. This is now ONLY used as a display for a weather station, using a proprietary Windows XP application, so I am not interested in any new Windows features that 1803 might bring. Nevertheless up until now I have let all upgrades proceed.

I have used Windows as long as it has been available. Windows up to XP was very useful. So far as I am concerned, XP was the best and most useful. I have now used Win 10 for about 2 years. Most of the time, when I turn the computer on to do some meaningful work, I am interrupted by upgrades...

If I remember correctly, XP's EOL had a HUGE reaction because of all the people's fond memories of it. So Win7's will be that, but bigger in my personal opinion.

Hello
OK, bad news first. I'm a near 74 year old engineer, and have very little experience with modern operating systems, though I have quite a bit with older systems.
For many years I've used a machine running Win XP Pro with SP3. Mainly this machine is used for technical work - engineering...
(Admin: If this really belongs in the XP forum, please move it; but there have been other changes made to this feature in Win10, and it’s something we’d like to see fixed in Win10)
I know it’s a bit late for this, but we didn’t know that the one thing we’ve been looking for has been there since...

I have searched for two days and downloaded 15 windows video players in search for what I want.
The thing is that I remember this feature was available in 2005 during the Windows XP Era. I don't remember the name of the player that could do it. I found the backup software CD I had since that...

After restoring an old XP Home machine to initial state, I can't seem to connect to the internet. The machine is working fine with my workgroup (Win 7, 8.1 & 10 systems on that group), but TCP/IP doesn't show up in the LAN Properties.
I am using an ARRIS gateway (cable modem, router & switch)...

Hi all
I'm in the need of some out of the box thinking with an upgrade dilemma -- I'm really struggling to find a solution.
So, the background: We have Windows XP on a Windows Server 2003 setup... stop laughing and rolling your eyes. I know, it's shocking.
We're trying to upgrade to the...
