I bought a new laptop which came with Windows 10. I started to transfer all my files over from my old laptop using a remote hard drive.
I finished up locked out of both laptops and with all three of my external hard drives saying they were encrypted which meant I could not read them.
Despite spending considerable amounts of time money and skull sweat I was unable to get back in.
Even my last resort bootable thumb drive could not get me in. Not even using the hackers back door into the command prompt. If I had known how long it would take me to find a way to spoof my old laptop into letting me in I am not sure I would have kept going.
Microsoft help was of no use at all. Possibly my fault because I have stalwartly refused to register with the evil empire.
French 'experts' are of little use.
Youtube/Facebook experts are better but they failed da after day.
But I persevered and the old laptop is working.
GOD BLESS LINUX.
Dizzy has been a very clingy little cat since Y came back from skiing and I wonder if he somehow knew that I was ill. But maybe it was just that I was late with the cat food.
Speaking of food I am blaming my weight gain since I came back from skiing on the Bacon Cheeseburger with Roast potatoes served by the cafe on the dockside. It was just to convenient.
Sometimes I had to share with the locals though.
