For a browser, you have anything but Firefox. It lets you put in Thunderbird for mail but you have to recreate the account. I used Dashlane for password management but it disappeared with all my passwords! Then it forces "Cortina" down your throat and I would prefer to have the look and feel I had. Any way to undo this? Hopefully I'll get email back. william41ross@gmail.com. I'm 77 and don't need this. Wow, I'm impressed with the data gathered.

Please download this : https://www.oo-software.com/en/shutup10 Suggest make a Folder on the Desktop called TOOLS and place the file in there. Open and run it, can take suggested or go extreme (may lose some functions and updates harder to get. ) It creates 1 .ini file only and this is the program. Now when Win10 updates you will have to go pack to the site and download a newer version that has been designed for the update. Just over write the file and run it again. (Rinse and Repeat when needed).

Hope this was what you were looking for.
