USB drives are typically FAT, and you have to reformat them to make them NTFS, which few people ever do. FAT doesn't support the built-in file encryption, so unless they used something else, or you reformatted the drive to NTFS, then its probably just an access permission problem -- try taking ownership of the files and directories on the new system.
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

Once again a major update to Windows 10 has completely failed to break, complicate, or in any way affect my computing experience negatively. Have you no heart? How long must we endure this unrelenting torrent of seamless improvement? I mean, sure, I'll learn to carry on but ...

Because every once in a while, even Microsoft can get it right. Remember Windows 7?
They do try not to do it often though, so that you don't start to expect it...

Arg, I hate them. What was the point of learning how to troubleshoot and fix computers if it aint gonna break?!

Yeah, I mean, at this rate, I'll be out of a job fixing other people's computers in 3,500 years or so.

If you don't use cortana, most recent updates are unlikely to affect you -- unless the updates to cortana break other things, of course.

This week I had a cold calling saleman representing a major US security company. They wanted to send an email with a program to install on our domain, to tell us how good their products are.
Hmmm. Failed at the first step. Told him I'm not installing anything anybody sends me.

Unfortunately I get a lot of them as my name is on the company website as the executive of IT. I have one that rings two or three times a week which comes up as No Caller ID. I refuse to answer it under the premise that if your hiding your number, I don't want to know you. This has been going on for months and the prick still trying to ring me, He has yet to get the message and never leave a message.

Can you or your company block the phone number (phone number range)? I would look into that if you haven't already.
|
|
|
|
|
No. It's caller who has blocked the displaying of the number. There may be valid cases to other staff.
|
|
|
|
|
Not to keep the thread going for too long but the "display" issue is only on your side. The number is still internal to the phone company that you use for your phone(s). They would be able to trace the number(s) for you for a call on a particular date/time. Just give them the call that came in on particular date/time and they will block that number, even if you can't see the number on your phone.
Hope this makes sense.

Blocked Name; Blocked Number; exactly how do you know it isn't dozens of these pond-scum calling you and think it's the same one over and over?

The depressing part is the number of people that will click on it.
I had to sanitize the missus's computer twice in one month because she'll click anything; which is when I changed the admin account password and didn't tell it to her.
