Hi All - This is my 1st post on this Forum. Apologies if I get things wrong.
I just bought this computer from a friend who has emigrated. My previous one suffered 'electrical strike' to the MB.
So I am getting used to a load of new stuff. (Windows 7, 64 bit)
These problems are giving me a lot of grief & I would be most grateful if anyone could advise on how to fix them:
(1) The 'Remember Password' keeps turning off - I have to re-tick the boxes on bank accounts etc every time I start a new session.
(2) 'Windows Sounds' keep turning on - I have to cancel them for each new session.
(3) My Desktop Shortcuts keep disappearing. I replace the vanished ones & when I boot up the next time - another bunch have disappeared!
Maybe all this stuff is related. Anyway, I'd be really grateful for any help. Many thanks in advance.
