My Windows 7 machine finally crapped out which has resulted in a “10” machine. The program I used to insert text boxes (in JPEGs) on my “7” won’t load. Will any of the programs included with “10” allow me to insert text boxes on JPEGs?

Are you talking about paintbrush?

Good old Paint should still be there - under “Windows Accessories” in the program list.

I could do without the “always on” Microsoft NeuroLink™. Although Microsoft _is_ the kindest, warmest, most wonderful corporation I’ve ever known in my life. And hey, at least they still include Solitaire!

Tsk, tsk, Mr./Ms. Buckner … is Microsoft not also the _bravest_ corporation you’ve ever known?

No matter; your .Net Essentials [del]Re-Education[/del] Proficiency Training will correct that.

Please come with the gentleman about to enter your room …

I was hoping this would be a Windows 2.0 thread. I had that running on an old 8086 Toshiba laptop not all that long ago. Real Mode rocks!

This is true, but keep the installation program since I have had to reinstall it several times after Win-10 upgrades. Not always but several times.
