Joann can\u2019t get rid of Bing in Firefox<\/strong><\/span>
\nSomehow, unfortunately, I now have Bing mixed up all over my opening Firefox page. I wanted to view Bing wallpaper & somewhere along the way I must have missed unchecking something & so everything has changed to BING Bing, Bing\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

I would like to get back to my normal W\/10 opening page when opening Firefox. I have not been successful in doing that for about 2 days now & I waste a lot of time trying.<\/span><\/p>\n

So I would appreciate your help.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you so much, Joann<\/span><\/p>\n

Our answer<\/strong><\/span>
\nHi Joann. All you need to do is reset Firefox to its defaults.<\/span><\/p>\n

1 Type About:Support in the Firefox address bar<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Troubleshooting Information will open<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/span><\/p>\n

This popup will appear:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Reset<\/span><\/p>\n

Click \u201dRefresh Firefox\u201d and Firefox will be reset to its defaults.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Refreshing Firefox saves your bookmarks and saved passwords and removes any customizations you made, as well as installed add-ons and extensions. It will also delete browser history and cache.<\/span><\/p>\n

This will quickly fix your Firefox problems as this resets Firefox to its default state but saves your bookmarks and saved passwords (if any). <\/span>

Leslie says the taskbar search bar has disappeared (Windows 11)<\/strong><\/span>
\nHi, TC & Darcy, My search bar has disappeared. How do I get the search box back on the taskbar? Thanks so much once again. Leslie<\/span><\/p>\n

Our answer<\/strong><\/span>
\nHi Leslie. Windows 11 doesn\u2019t have a search bar but it does have a search icon that serves the same purpose. To show the search icon, do this:<\/span><\/p>\n

Right-click on your taskbar and click on \u201cTaskbar settings\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Settings >Personalization >Taskbar dialog will open. Turn the switch next to \u201cSearch\u201d to the \u201cOn\u201d position.<\/span><\/p>\n

Danielle has too many Gmail contacts<\/span><\/strong><\/span>
\nMy contact list in Gmail is overflowing with contacts I don’t need anymore. How can I get rid of the Gmail contacts I don’t need or want any longer? Thanks!<\/span><\/p>\n

Our answer<\/span><\/strong><\/span>
\nHi Danielle. It’s easy to delete any contacts in Gmail you don’t want. You can select many contacts at one time, just a few at a time – or one at a time.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Login to Gmail<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Open Contacts<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Tick the boxes next to the contacts you want to delete. Note… you may have to hover over the contact names to see the checkbox appear.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Once you have made your selection, click the 3 vertical dots icon (shown in the screenshot below) to expand a drop-down menu with “Delete” in it. (Menu shown in the screenshot directly above).<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/span><\/p>\n

We hope this helps you, Danielle.<\/span><\/p>\n

Aria has a failing hard drive<\/strong><\/span>
\nMy PC does not boot. When I turn it on, I get an error: AHCI Port0 Device error press F2 to set up when I press F2 I get CMOS set up utility. several options there but have no idea what to do. Can you help? I had Windows 10 version 1703. Please let me know my options. Thanks!<\/span><\/p>\n

Our answer<\/strong><\/span>
\nHi Aria. The AHCI device error you\u2019re getting is generated from the BIOS\u2019 S.M.A.R.T. hard drive detection. Hard drives can fail at any time. We\u2019ve had them fail when they were less than a year old and we\u2019ve seen hard drives last for 10-12 years. The S.M.A.R.T. feature is a warning system that hard drive failure is imminent.<\/span><\/p>\n

The error you\u2019re getting has nothing to do with Windows \u2013 it occurs before Windows starts.\u00a0The error means that the S.M.A.R.T. hard drive system has detected that your hard drive at port 0 (main hard drive) is failing and the drive\u00a0may not be accessible. It indicates also that your hard drive may fail at any time.\u00a0 You can try pressing F1 to try to boot into Windows.\u00a0 If you do get lucky and boot into Windows, you should back up your files and replace the hard drive (or have someone replace it). A new 1 TB hard drive is not that expensive, you can get a brand name for around $50\u2026 or less. And these days they are very easy to install.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you have access to another computer, you can use our Windows 10 page to download an ISO file and make a Windows 10 DVD<\/a>. You can use that DVD to boot your computer.\u00a0 Then you can try using the disk repair tools and\/or other troubleshooting tools on the Windows 10 DVD. But even if you get Windows started, if your hard drive is failing, you\u2019re going to need to replace it \u2013 in which case having that Windows 10 DVD will be very handy.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you must get a new hard drive, you can use the DVD to install Windows 10. You will not need a new product key if you install Windows 10 on the same computer. Microsoft hard codes the Windows product key to your hardware (motherboard), so if you put a new hard drive in and reinstall Windows, you\u2019ll not need a Windows product key.<\/span><\/p>\n

We hope this helps you.<\/span>
\n\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/span>
\nAria wrote back and she replaced the hard drive and reinstalled Windows from the DVD and she\u2019s now in the process of getting her computer set up. Good job, Aria!<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

CJ wants to stop Bing from being his default search engine<\/strong><\/span>
\nDear Darcy and TC. Bing wants to be my default search engine and I don\u2019t want it or at least have the choice. When I go into Chrome and Firefox Bing is there so how do I rid myself of this troublesome priest? I am waiting for our exchange rate to pick up and will make a donation as I love your work. CJ<\/span><\/p>\n

Our answer<\/strong><\/span>
\nHi CJ. Thanks!<\/span><\/p>\n

First, ensure you have no Bing extensions in your browser. Read our article here<\/a> on how to check your browser\u2019s extensions. If you have a Bing search extension or an extension that hijacks your search engine, any changes you make will be overridden by that extension.<\/span><\/p>\n

CHROME<\/span><\/p>\n

Type (or copy & paste) the following in Chrome\u2019s address bar:<\/span><\/p>\n

chrome:\/\/settings\/search<\/span><\/p>\n

Then press Enter.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/span><\/p>\n

Then scroll down to the \u201cSearch engines\u201d section. Look to the right of the search engine you want to use, click on the 3-vertical dots, and select \u201cSet as default\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/span><\/p>\n

FIREFOX<\/span><\/p>\n

Type (exactly) or copy & paste the following in the Firefox address bar<\/span><\/p>\n

about:preferences#search<\/span><\/p>\n

Then press Enter.<\/span><\/p>\n

Under \u201cDefault Search Engine,\u201d click on the down arrow next to the displayed default search engine to open the drop-down menu. Select the search engine you want to use from the list by clicking on it.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kevin is having major problems with Chrome, and he even uninstalled and reinstalled it<\/strong><\/span>
\nJust recently this started happening on my laptop only, the other computers work fine with Chrome. When I try to log in with Chrome on my laptop to my bank it tells me that the page I am looking for is not available, and to try later. But on my desktops (2) it works just fine with Chrome. I have disabled all security features and ad blockers, I even deleted Chrome and reinstalled it, but still, it gives me the same message\u2026\u201d the page you\u2019re looking for is not available. Try again later\u201d. But on the same laptop using Firefox or Edge I can log in. Would you have any Ideas? Thanks, Kevin<\/span><\/p>\n

Our answer<\/strong><\/span>
\nHi Kevin. Uninstalling Chrome is not quite as easy as it sounds. If you uninstalled Chrome and didn\u2019t remove the Google folder at C:\\Users\\Your Username\\AppData\\Local\\Google, then everything that was in Chrome before you uninstalled it (Bookmarks, extensions, cache, history, settings) is still there. So, if you didn\u2019t delete the Google folder in AppData\/Local then all you did when you reinstalled it was replace the Chrome executable.<\/span><\/p>\n

Before you go back and uninstall Chrome again, I suggest you remove any questionable Chrome extensions, clear your browsing history & cache<\/a> and then try your bank\u2019s site again.<\/span><\/p>\n

If that doesn\u2019t work, you\u2019re going to need to uninstall Chrome completely, including the Google folder in C:\\Users\\your username\\AppData\\Local then reboot your computer before reinstalling Chrome. If you don\u2019t back up your bookmarks you\u2019re going to lose them so be sure to back up your Chrome bookmarks before you completely remove Chrome & its data folder. See our article here<\/a> showing the correct way to uninstall Chrome and its folder(s).<\/span><\/p>\n

We hope this helps you, Kevin. If you need more help or have more questions, just let us know.<\/span>

John is looking for an easy way to find all our tips and tricks<\/strong><\/span>
\nHello Everyone at Cloudeight. I have been reading your awesome letters for years and have a question I should know but am drawing a blank.<\/span><\/p>\n

I save all of your newsletters but am beginning to crowd the PC. How can I go search for any problem I have seen discussed in a newsletter, maybe even a couple of years ago? I am sure it is possible, but again, my feeble old mind is drawing a blank. I could then delete the saved letters, freeing up valuable space.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you so much for all the excellent help you provide. A customer for life \ud83d\ude42 John<\/span><\/p>\n

Nick says one of his email addresses has been breached<\/strong><\/span>
\nThanks for the article on Phishing is the Internet\u2019s Most Successful Con. I read it through and in one part it suggests a site called \u201cHave I Been Pwned\u201d. I tried it and it says that one of my email addresses was breached. It asks me to \u201csubscribe\u201d. I need your advice on this. Thanks, Nick<\/span><\/p>\n

Our answer<\/strong><\/span>
\nHi Nick. We featured \u201cHave I Been PWNED\u201d in our newsletters and on our InfoAve website before. See this article<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Just because your email address was found on the dark web, or anywhere else, doesn\u2019t mean it was breached or compromised. \u201cHave I Been PWNED\u201d is a legitimate site, but we don\u2019t see any advantages of subscribing unless you want to receive mail from them.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you suspect one of your email accounts has been compromised, the best thing to do is change your password and make sure it\u2019s a strong password. We offer password advice in many tips, here is one<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Strong passwords are the key to your security. They are just as important as your security software\u2026 maybe even more. If your passwords are weak \u2013 or worse \u2013 if your passwords are weak and you use any of your passwords on more than one site, you\u2019re just asking for trouble.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our advice: Change your password right away on the account you think might have been compromised\u2026 and make sure you use a strong password. And then even if it were breached the hackers\/criminals would no longer be able to access it.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rich wants to know the best way to copy files from his old PC to his new PC and also how to print a list of installed programs<\/span><\/strong><\/span>
\nFirst of all, I want to thank you both for ALL you do for us \u201cOlder Folks\u201d (86+ yrs.) and for ALL the helpful \u201cTips and Tricks\u201d you give us through your Home Page, emails, etc., etc., I have been a \u201clong time\u201d member and supporter (I think from your \u201cbirth\u201d as Thundercloud.net). Like you, I started on computers (circa 1970) with DOS 1.0. and my first computer was one with 2 5 1\/4\u2033 floppy disk drives with the entire OS on one side of one of those floppy disks (long before HDs were even thought of. I cannot count how many computers (desktops and laptops) I have had. I and my wife each have purchased a Computer Direct Care, which I initially purchased for my new Dell laptop, but since then I have purchased a new HP Desktop computer with much more RAM than my current HP Desktop. Before I \u201ccall up\u201d my Computer Direct Care purchase, I would ask you to send me the correct instructions on:<\/span><\/p>\n

1) How to correctly copy my Documents; Pictures; Videos; Downloads etc. from my old HP Desktop.<\/span><\/p>\n

2) How to get a \u201clist\u201d of all the programs I have on this old HP Desktop so I can download and install the newer versions of the programs I would like to keep on the new HP Desktop?<\/span><\/p>\n

God Bless you both and may He give you continued health and financing to continue your \u201cMission\u201d for many more years in His Service. Rich<\/span><\/p>\n

Our answer<\/span><\/strong><\/span>
\nHi Rich. Thanks for your nice comments and good wishes.<\/span><\/p>\n

First, you\u2019re going to need an external hard drive. I suggest you buy a 1 TB external. They cost around $50-$60. You can buy them at Walmart, BestBuy, Staples, Amazon, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n

Once you have the external drive and you\u2019re ready to go, plug the external drive into the old PC\u2026 DO NOT INSTALL THE SOFTWARE THAT CAME WITH THE EXTERNAL, it\u2019s not needed.<\/span><\/p>\n

First, you\u2019ll need to copy the files from the old PC to the external drive.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are the instructions for copying the files from the old PC to the external drive.<\/span><\/p>\n

Before you do anything else go to this page<\/a> and follow the instructions to add \u201cCopy to & Move to\u201d to your right-click context menu if it\u2019s not there already.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, open File Explorer and browse to the folder at This PC > C:\\Users\\ <your username>. Right-click on your user folder, select \u201cCopy to folder\u201d from the right-click menu, and copy the entire User folder to the external drive. That folder contains all your personal files (Pictures, Music, Documents, Favorites, etc.) If you\u2019re not sure of your username, type CMD in the taskbar search and press Enter when you see Command Prompt in the search results. Type WHOAMI at the prompt and press Enter.<\/span><\/p>\n

Next, unplug the external drive from the old PC and plug it into the new PC. Before you do anything else go to this page<\/a> and follow the instructions to add \u201cCopy to & Move to\u201d to your right-click context menu.<\/span><\/p>\n

Important\u2026 never copy the entire folder from your old computer on the external drive to your new PC. Always open the folder on the external drive, select all the files in it, and move those files to the corresponding folder on your new PC.<\/span><\/p>\n

OK let\u2019s continue\u2026 Use File Explorer to browse the external drive. Open the Users folder you copied to the external drive, find the Documents folder, and open it. Select any one of the files in that folder and press CTRL + A to select all the files in that folder. Right-click on the selected files and choose \u201cCopy to folder\u201d and choose the Documents folder on the new PC. It may take a while for all the files to be copied.<\/span><\/p>\n

Next, open the Pictures folder in the Users folder on the external drive. Select any one of the files in that folder and press CTRL+A to select all the files and folders in the Pictures folder. Now right-click on any of the selected files and choose \u201cCopy to folder\u201d and then choose the Pictures folder on the new PC. Again it may take a while to copy the files.<\/span><\/p>\n

Do the same with the Music folder and the Videos (if you have Videos), Downloads folder, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n

Once you do that all of your files will be on your new PC in exactly the same locations they were in on your old PC. It doesn\u2019t matter whether you were using Windows 10 or Windows 11 on the old PC \u2013 the two operating systems have the same basic folder structure.<\/span><\/p>\n

In my opinion, you might be better off not making a list of all your programs on your old PC. A lot of the programs we install, we don\u2019t use. But if you want to make a list of programs that are installed on your old PC along with other info about them, download and install HiBit Uninstaller on the old PC. You can get it free from here<\/a>. Install it and then open it.<\/span><\/p>\n

You\u2019ll see a list of all programs installed on your computer. Right-click on any one of them and choose \u201cSelect all\u201d..<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/span><\/p>\n

With all programs now selected, right-click on any one of them and choose \u201cExport List to\u201d\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/span><\/p>\n

From the \u201cExport List to\u201d dialog, choose HTML file (web page), click on Page color (choose white so it\u2019s easier to print) then click on \u201cExport\u201d. You can name the file anything you want, but by default, it\u2019s called \u201cReport\u201d and it\u2019s saved to your Document folder when you click on the Export button.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/span><\/p>\n

Go to your documents folder and click on the file you just created. It will open in your browser. Once it\u2019s open, press CTRL+P to print it. The list shows the program name, size, date installed, and publisher.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/span><\/p>\n

Whew! That\u2019s a lot of information. We hope this helps you, Richard.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Carolyn\u2019s Windows 10 computer updated, and a user account turned up missing <\/strong><\/span>
\nMy husband has a laptop that he does not use regularly. He turned it on today and Windows did an update. We were both users of that laptop. NOW the only user that appears is me. How do we get it back the way it was with both users?<\/span><\/p>\n

Our answer<\/strong><\/span>
\nHi Carolyn. What kind of Update? Version update? If it was a version update you can roll back to the previous version of Windows 10 by going to Settings > Update & Security > Recovery > Go back to the previous version of Windows.<\/span><\/p>\n

What happens if you press Windows Key + L. How many accounts do you see on that screen?<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve heard a lot of things happening when Windows updates, but I\u2019ve never heard of it wiping out a user account. If this was not a version update, you won\u2019t have the option to roll back to the previous version. And if a user account was wiped out, you\u2019re not going to get it back. But you can create a new user account and import files from the old user account (assuming the old account is still in C:\\Users\\Name of lost account. However, this will not bring back the programs that were installed \u2013 all programs would have to be reinstalled if you created a new user account and imported data.<\/span><\/p>\n

But before you do anything, try Windows Key + L to bring up the login screen. Let us know what you find out.<\/span><\/p>\n

Luana has trouble reading some articles because the text is too small<\/strong><\/span>
\nHi TC. In many of the articles I am receiving the text is too small to read. My eyes are not as good as when I was younger. I remember there was a way to use the mouse to make the text larger and I had forgotten that. Can you please tell me how to do that?<\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks so much for your help. Blessings, Luana.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our answer<\/strong><\/span>
\nHi Luana. Sure thing. See our article here\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.thundercloud.net\/infoave\/new\/zooming-back-to-zoom-zoom-zoom\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Cindy wants to know what we think of IObit Advanced Computer Care<\/strong><\/span>
\nWhat do you think about a program called Advanced System Care by IObit?<\/span><\/p>\n

Our answer<\/strong><\/span>
\nHi Cindy. Our opinion of IObit products is not very good. We think IOBit software programs border on being PUPs. Advanced System Care is particularly bad since it also includes a very poor antivirus and claims to be a one-click computer fix. In our option, Advanced System Care is almost as bad as some of the one-click-fix scams we\u2019ve covered in the past.<\/span><\/p>\n

The advanced malware scanners we use, find and remove Advanced System Care as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program).<\/span><\/p>\n

Hope this answers your question, Cindy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
