In July, longtime members Tom Sweet and Linda Eakle step in for SIG Leader Chuck Stark to address a myriad of topics, including:

  • Linda & Tom’s recommended MS Edge settings to increase usefulness and decrease annoyances.
  • Linda’s expanded discussion of Edge Collections
  • Sound control panel adjustments for better conferences
  • Diagnosing cause of repeated Blue Screen crashes with help from CoPilot

    There will be open Q&A, time permitting.

    Also, if you have a ‘troubled’ system (or your system has a troubled user!) please contact Chuck via email to arrange for a ‘Live, No Net’ troubleshooting session in front of the group.

    In July, Judy Taylour of APCUG will be doing a presentation on Digital Detox.

    Excessive use of electronic devices without breaks can impact our mental and physical health. Being aware of the time we spend in front of screens and making an effort to unplug from them is a great way to remain connected to the ‘real’ world and recharge our batteries.
