Upgrade to Windows 10

I stand corrected. If I upgrade it will be on another machine, not on my finely tuned WIN 7 desktop.

I really liked W/7, and think that it was a good step up from XP, both very good.
And, I did a lot of homework on W/10 before upgrading, and W/7 is all there so anyone can revert back to it should they want to.

So far, I think W/10 is the wave of the immediate future, with ease of access to all programs and files and many more bells and whistles, and Fast, to boot...

My thank you button is missing. Any ideas to get it back?

This was mentioned a while back by webmaster

The downtime was necessary to migrate the site to a new 64 bit SSD server (VPS) and then upgrade the forum and other software to be compatible with the new server.

The only feature that I am unable to get working so far is the "Thank You" feature. That is a 3rd party module that hasn't been updated in 6 years and is not compatible with the new server. I'm going to try to find a replacement that will let me keep all the existing "thanks" but we will have to live without that feature until I find a solution.

I haven't completely tested the other site features (Photopost, Classifieds, etc.) so some may remain disabled for a little longer.

Thanks for your patience.

Thought it was Windows.

BTW I have been happy with the 2cnd anniversary Windows. I had a number of folks had trouble after any Windows 10 upgrade, found 90% of the problems had to do with outdated driveware and firmware. Downloading the computer manufacturer's support assist and running the software makes a huge difference.

The other 9% is the original manufacturers partition table for Windows 7 and 8.1. Best to do a clean install when updating is futile.

Am I missing anything?
