My laptop came with windows 8. My son helped me switch it over to GOOGLE as the search of choice from BING. Now I think a week or two ago it took it upon itself to switch to windows 10. Now I am stuck with the BING thing again. I can't get it to use GOOGLE. When was the last time you thought I'll just BING it. What a piece of sh!t. If you BING a address half the time it can't find it and if it does there is no street view,no 3D view. It's just useless. So how do I get the GOOGLE back?? My skills are a little lacking.
First I would get rid of Windows 10.. and go back to 8.1 for me windows 10 has way to many bugs and killed your privacy .. to many ways installed and hidden in windows 10 that Microsoft can spy on you and they sell that information.. I personally will not use windows 10.. because of the security breeches..I feel the same about Chrome.. I use 8.1 with out Chrome and at this point I have no plans to switch .. I get that stupid notice every day from Microsoft wanting me to upgrade for fee.. They are pushing windows 10 because of the poor security for users and for their own reasons not because it is a better operating system.. you will lose much privacy with 10 in my opinion..They are spying on you for marketing and research pretty soon we will loose all our privacy.. I use a PIA ..private internet sever access to protect my identity anytime I am online.. and it's well worth the little extra money..to hide my IP address from trolls..anyway that is just my personal opinion on being online We need to protect our self . It's a very wicked world out there and we all need to protect you personal information ,banking and credit cards. and personal information..Windows 10 is a bad system and I will never use it..
I would tell you google windows 10 for bug and spyware and breech or privacy.. But now you already know and have lost google.. I guess you could Bing google and create a shortcut on your desk top to install it on your laptop..also try fire fox for a browser ..windows 10 sucks for privacy.. Bing google and create a shortcut on your desk top to install it, then go into your add remove programs and delete or uninstall Chrome and Bing

I think which version of Microsoft U use is probably dependant on your level of skill and knowledge with computers .. Me I just know enough to make me dangerous..I am not too good with a computer I learned everything I know from ,Google, u-tube, and reading and reading and sweating my butt off when I messed up my stuff..and even when I get the problem fixed, most times I have no idea what I did.. I am going to keep my 8.1 but I run it in classic shell so it looks and works like 7 .. I really don't like change...I am way to darn old to learn anymore.. My hard drive is full and I have no USB ports to stick in my ear..I have reached my level of wisdom.. I just never got my fair share, that's probably because of living in the country and we only had dialup for the first few years of the internet.. I now have Fibre and its way to fast for me anymore .. I can't learn as fast as it comes into my head.. Seems like My delete key in my nose is stuck on delete.. like several of my other body parts.. but I still like looking at the pictures I don't like 10 at all.. I have read and heard bad thing regarding spyware and privacy issues and in reality I am too computer illiterate to know whats true and what's not.. I have a couple friends and they tell to take a pass on 10...They are well dressed and have clean jobs and don't smoke So I am going to take their word for now...

I made the mistake of installing 10 on my computer. That was a huge mistake. It freezes, blinks at me, is slow, and the ads drive me crazy. you are right about it spying on you . I searched something at Home Depot one day and the next day the ads were home Depot promoting what I had searched. If I had a Windows 7 disc I would delete 10 and install it.

Larry what brand of computer do you have?
I can get a Windows 7 CD for an HP laptop or a Dell PC.
Just a quick update. I haven't done a thing with mine yet. Too busy with outside stuff and working on my 302. God I hate Fords

Hey, watch your mouth there young fellow, or I'll get Wayne (Cheyenne) after you.
HAHA You know I have one of everything here and the ford has to be IMO the worst to work on. Everything is difficult on it from points to lift it,, to getting the torque converter separated from the huge flex plate. I even have a BBD in a B body dodge with 2"X3 1/2" headers on it and it's easier to work on. I can hardly wait to put it back in.
I'm not too worried about Wayne. Well,,,,,unless someone told him I moved since he was at my place..

Yes you are correct I should have said I'm a little frustrated with this Ford right now. That post wasn't as "harsh" as the Email JEGS got last night when I found out my new rocker arms aren't the right ones. I must say though 7 hours later they have already contacted me.
