The bottom bar is the task bar. all progamms running will be there.



Clicking on a programme there will toggle between min window size and maximise window size.


Your Blue cicle was probally a minimised window for help and support.

Which you sucsesfully ended in task manager.


Not sure about your green arrow, dont have one on my keyboard.


Save your work. Close down/restart PC and check all is ok.

HA HA HA HA HA


GONE GONE GONE GONE GONE - just like that - as Tommy Cooper would have said...


oh my goodness,


OOOH SO RELIEVED - HUBBY NEED NEVER KNOW WHAT A NIT-WIT I'VE BEEN LOL!!


A BIG THANK YOU TO EVERYONE FOR HELPING OUT - ABSOLUTELY BLOOMIN MARVELLOUS...GOSH, I'M STARVING...


Do forgive the shouting...am just SO, so relieved.


Moral of story: don't bother cleaning your keyboard...let the grime accumulate!



MWAH xxxxxx

You are very kind b_s, but frankly, I didn't do anything...apart from work myself up into a frenzy and get my knickers in a twist! It was everyone coming together that did it...I can always rely on this forum when in a panic - whether it be while on the computer, while baking bread, or making chocolate brownies...yep, each time, forumites have come to the rescue. It's lovely.


Apologies for not latching on to your ctrl+alt+del instructions earlier - I was in a bit of a state LOL! Anyway, everything is wonderful now, hubby has not long returned, my belly is full and I am a happy bunny. And hubby knows nothing! Though he did comment on how clean the keyboard looked:)).


BTW, have a great day on Sat. Love to you and M xx

Affirmative, HAL9000 Computer, I trust you are able to read me.


However, before I disconnect you, I would like to know whether you have anything to do with the fact that this thread has lost some 10+ posts? I.e. the thread has shrunk since yesterday. I am aware that you have made some very poor decisions lately, or can this latest incident really only be attributable to human error?;-)

LOL - right on cue!


I know, no 9000 computer has ever made a mistake or distorted information...you are, by any practical definition of the words, foolproof and incapable of error...yada yada yada...heard it all before...blardy blah blah...


*commences disconnection of HAL9000 Computer*

Too funny LOL! But Narnia, you have it arse over tit!


Part 1 of the moral of the story is never to clean the keyboard (ever - i.e. with/without toothbrush) - especially while the computer remains on!


Part 2, which only applies where Admin should fall off his seat, is as per that (now disconnected) computer: never to levitate under the desk with a mouse.


Any advancement(s)?

    • We have had a few cat flaps over the years but none have been electronic. They just have a small clip that you turn to lock or open.  Some come with a magnet and a matching magnet that the cat wears on its collar  This prevents other cats entering.  I've not used these as I don't like the idea of a cat wearing a collar. Cats do like to be out at night and you need to encourage yours to return after a late evening sortie. Calling,rustling treat wrappers worked for ours but he seems to have now got into the habit of coming back about 9pm. without this.        
    • Having had several cats over the past 40 years - mainly rescue, we have a tried and tested routine, Initially confined to one room with litter tray/food/water - we take it in turns to stay for a few minutes several times a day so they become familiar with our scent. They are gradually introduced to the rest of the house. We have a wire cat basket and we place cat in basket and take them outside, over a few days we place basket in different areas of the garden - grass area/gravel area, patio area etc - different flowers/plants. Some of the more nervous cats we walk around the garden on a lead. They get use to the scent of the garden. We have a cat flap in the back door so they have full access - If we need to keep cat in - just block off the cat flap so they cannot escape! We are now down to one elderly cat - who during the summer just laid on the garden chairs and came in for food, but as weather getting colder prefers to sit on a worktop in the kitchen looking out into the garden. So we are back to the cat litter as she is reluctant to go out in the rain/cold.  
    • With fibre you are paying for the speed, which is the number, yours is 300 so if you did a lot of gaming, for example, you would want the fastest possible.  If it's just office work or maybe streaming on Netflix you likely won't need as fast, but, if there are a lot of people in your house all doing their own thing on different devices, then faster speeds are better.  I don't rely on my Wi-Fi much other than when I am using my mobile.  I use Ethernet cables to connect up everything, I Have one cable running from my router, along the skirtings and through a hole I drilled in the wall to another room.  I have attached the plusnet speed guide which gives you an idea of how it works.   
    • I'd reread what you posted and try to summarise.  It just comes across as a rant.
