So my computer is sick.
It's been sick for quite a while, if I'm honest. A few years back, it got a few Windows updates stuck in its craw As far as I could tell, some updates made it through, but it kept going back to these other updates like old friends, always asking, but never succeeding in getting them done.
I did what any other run-of-the-mill slob would do in such situations: I would occasionally and half-heartedly try to fix things, going to the Internet to see what could be done to make things better. I tried several things, from the idiot (trying and trying again to get the updates to install, neglecting to remember that doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result is a sign of insanity. I also tried recovery points, reinstalling Windows completely, etc. But nothing worked.
So now my computer's in the hands of a friend who has promised to try his best. I hope he can figure out what's going on, because I'd like my computer back. It's taken me a week to finally get this post done via my laptop, because I had to sort through all of my kids' Google accounts in order to get signed in.
I did manage to get everything saved on my desktop to an external hard drive, in case the nuclear option has to be taken. Hoping to her from him soon.
