You're not serious?? I can't count how many times an update of Windows
or a windows program didn't go as expected or planned, but this has
absolutely nothing to do with the fact that your question was posted to
this list because you were too lazy to even make a half-hearted attempt
to figure out the problem yourself.

Irrelevant. Sure, I'd love for it to just work like magic every time,
but reality is very different, and if you are going to be too lazy to
try to fix something yourself, you should expect the kind of responses
you have gotten.
