Well... I'll be damned. Microsoft changed the GUI in some spots on this update, particularly if you use Cortana.

Did they change it back to the way 7 was? (Yeah, I know. But a guy can hope.)

Some of it, yes. The start menu now shows you who is logged in, where in previous versions of 10 all you had was an icon. You also get an actual history of Apps, Docs, etc.... which has been MIA since Windows 7.

BTW, I also get a message that the snipping tool is changing. So those of us that are in love with that tool are about to experience a change. The new one is called "Snip and Sketch".

I would guess a 2 amp filter would suit your needs rather well if you are going off of one output. My garage has LED lighting as well, but I would have to have 2 filters due to how it is wired (if that makes sense).

Here's their 2 amp filter, just so you kind of know what I am talking about.... These were effective for fluorescent lighting as well.

Thank you for this. I should have been more specific. I have 2 fluorescent fixtures, 4 bulb and a 2 bulb, I put LED bulbs in to, an LED drop cord and a couple LED spot lights similar to the older halogen lights. Anytime I turn any of them on the radio go nuts. Tuning on the dial changes and there's a lot of static. Then there are also some tools\machines that when run when the lights are on you can hear in the static also but they don't effect the radio when the lights are off. A lot of times I have to choose between the radio or lighting.

I should have realized you would think I was referring to installed lighting. Installing lighting is probably something you do between pouring concrete and painting the house on a Sunday morning.

Yes, I knew what you meant. That link is a filter for that type of interference.

Google/Youtube in their "spying" ways actually threw this video into my Youtube feed after I types that today.... or maybe it was from my search for the Schurter filter?

Orrrr.... Maybe it's the Russians because I used the Old Face App?

Hey White that 1903 update came out in May. It was supposed to be out in March as in third month of 2019 (1903) but after 1809 was such a disaster they pushed it back it bit. I have been running it for a while now and have not had any issue with it. I keep seeing random reports of it being bad but I have installed it on many client PCs without issue. I usually try to test and then push out the bigger half yearly updates to my clients before they get stuck in update hell unexpectedly. If you have a CEO, CFO or someone else on Win 10 in your company you might want to push it out on your terms instead of having them experience the random hour + of not being able to use their machine. This update will usually decide to install itself right before the PowerPoint presentation of the big meeting in the conference room with the out of town investors who only have 2 hours before their plane takes off for another country.

Fantastic. Thank you.

Speaking of Google, I was looking for some Bumper mounting parts yesterday and searched with quotations, Ford and the part numbers. More than half of the first 5 pages was for Chevy and GM plus the obligatory Chrysler and Jeep products thrown in the results. And then there were the sites that searched and listed from E-Bay all the bumpers currently listed. It wasn't the Russians that robbed us of our once trusty search parameters and operators.
