QUOTE(plumberly @ Oct 12 2016, 09:36 AM) Very good. Thanks! it's not exactly a problem. ie is just part of operating system, even in w10, eg. edge still use the same cache location as ie.As I have suspected. As I am not that IT literate, I will stay in the do nothing camp on this IE problem.   |

QUOTE(plumberly @ Oct 12 2016, 09:49 AM) Saw some youtube videos on Win 10 auto update thing and allowing data to be sent back to MS for them to improve things. Really? Maybe data for them to build for their marketing bridge as less money now in OS. telemetry is everywhere for quite some times, eg. in web browsers, phones, etc. the only difference is that ms admitted it, and for some reasons they get all the blames for being honest (sort of) heheWith Malware anti-beacon, I have disabled most of their telemetry loops. I still want my privacy etc etc. Don't mind giving the data I want to give but not behind my back without me knowing. Ha. Cheerio. i turn this telemetry thing off as much as i can too. my favorite alternative is still Linux if i wanna get rid of it completely. This post has been edited by horns: Oct 12 2016, 10:24 AM |

QUOTE(plumberly @ Oct 12 2016, 11:50 AM) I see. libreoffice is preinstalled with some distros. photoshop alternative in linux is called gimp. you can also check out wine which let you run some software for windows. Planning to set up linux on my old PC. I guess softwares like spreadsheet, word, powerpoint, email, etc for linux are free and easily available? Is Linux so popular now that giant softwares can also run on Linux like Photoshop, etc? Thanks. basically for my usage i just need the usual: firefox for web browsing, thunderbird for emails, transmission for torrents, keepassx for password storage, filezilla for ftp sessions, vlc for movies, to name a few. 
you can always test a live usb version of linux distro (created with tools like the ones at pendrivelinux.com) to see if you like it or not. This post has been edited by horns: Oct 12 2016, 08:09 PM |
