Never show a firefox user the average mom's web browser or theyll start screaming and weeping and theyll never recover. Anyway me mam asked me to look at her onedrive and pop quiz where does this hellhole laptop save its files
All on disk space with occasional cloud back-ups
Some on disk space with dedicated cloud folders for pictures
Half-and-half split
ALL ON THE FUCKING ONEDRIVE. IF I DELETE THE DESKTOP FOLDER ON ONEDRIVE, THE LAPTOP DESKTOP GOES FUCKING EMPTY. I HAD TO TRACK DOWN THE ACTUAL DESKTOP IN THE C:PC/WINDOWS/USERS/NAME/DESKTOP PATH LIKE A FUCKING ANIMAL SO I COULD MANYALLY MOVE THE FUCKING FILES THERE. MICROSOFT SUCK MY BALLLLLLLSSSSSS
Because I tell you something. The answer for sure isnt 1.

#Uninstall mcafee internet security suite in 8.1 full version
Microsoft® Windows® Defender is bundled with the Windows® 8 and 8.1 operating systems, but many computers have a trial or full version of other third-party anti virus protection program installed, which disables Windows Defender. You should turn off and uninstall this app before running Windows Defender to avoid any software clashes.

i am trying to uninstall McAfee Security Scan Plus. but I cannot. I have installed McAfee's "uninstaller" and it still didn't do anything. I have seen some people talk about "pressing tab" on the uninstall screen in order to select a hidden button to properly uninstall... but I cannot find this button no matter how many times I press tab
How do I get rid of it? 😭

So, quick update on the laptop situation:
The good news is that I was able to take the laptop in to Office Max and they got some of the information off of it. I had them do the primary documents folder, which has all my FUCKIT files on it, which means that once I get Adobe installed on this laptop because apparently it doesn't have it, I can finally get contributor copies printed out and mailed. (Fun fact: I was trying to do that when the old laptop died, but I wanted to restart that computer first so adobe would print in a relatively prompt fashion, and... yeah. Ended poorly.) This is particularly excellent news because I actually attempted to photocopy the zine while I was at Office Max and without going into details, that ended poorly.
I'm also re-installing Scribus, and I'll try to get at least some of my fonts recovered in that process, but at least I have my PDFs of everything again, and when I have Adobe downloaded, I can print in the proper booklet format, which is a huge relief. So it's coming along.
The bad news is that Adobe comes with McAfee for some godforsaken reason, so now I get to uninstall McAfee again. Which I literally just did less than a week ago.
But. Progress.
(Also, this upcoming FUCKIT will be on the theme of Serious Fun. In case anything else blows up before I manage to move.)
