Q&A: What’s the best way to save and organize your newsletter emails?

Posted on March 16, 2021

Question from Miranda:  I absolutely love your emails, Rick.

Thanks so much for sending them!

I learn something from them almost every day and they’ve answered several questions that had been nagging me for a really long time.

The problem I’m having is finding your emails in the sea of other emails in my Inbox.

Because of my work I receive dozens of important emails every day and your one daily email always seems to get “lost” in the stack.

It’s there, but really hard to find when I need to refer to something you had written about before.

What I need is an easy way to “file” your emails in one place so I won’t have to go scrolling through a list of thousands of other unrelated emails to find the one I’m looking for.

Q&A: How can I keep the WiFi from disconnecting in Windows 10?

Posted on March 11, 2021

Question from Aaron S:  Hi Rick. I really like your blog and appreciate all the help you give to so many people.

I hope you can help me with an issue I’m having with my HP laptop.

Ever since I updated it to Windows 10 the WiFi automatically disconnects after about 30 minutes and I have to reboot the computer to get it turned back on.

How can I keep the WiFi working until I actually shut the laptop down?

Posted on March 10, 2021

Question from Oliver P.: I need some advice for choosing an antivirus app for an older computer.

I have a Dell desktop PC with Windows 7 on it. This machine came with a pair of 2GB RAM sticks installed for a total of 4GB of RAM.

One of the RAM sticks went bad so I removed it.

I not going to replace the bad RAM stick because I’m planning to just use this computer offline for various things since Microsoft has stopped supporting Windows 7.

Question from Carlos:  I have an older laptop that’s still running Windows XP and I have question about it.

I read your post about replacing Windows with Linux, and since XP has been orphaned by Microsoft I’d like to do that so I can keep using this machine.

My laptop is a Dell Latitude D620 that has been upgraded to 4GB of RAM and 320GB hard drive. I’m not sure about the video card if that matters.

Can you recommend the best version of Linux to install on this computer? There are so many Linux versions to choose from and I have no idea which one to pick.

Q&A: What’s the best SSD to replace a 1TB hard drive with?

Posted on February 27, 2021

Question from Brad:  The 1TB hard drive in my desktop computer has started making odd noises and I’m afraid it’s about to break.

I have already copied all my files onto an external hard drive so I’m prepared if it does go belly up on me.

I’m wanting to replace the failing hard drive with an SSD that has at least the same amount of storage space. I’d like to keep the cost as close to $100 as possible.

Can you could recommend the best SSD for me to get in that price range?
