There is not enough memory so files are being swapped in/out of the hard disk. (For both of the above you can look at the performance monitor to check this.) 3. As far as I know Office 2007 does have a greater overhead than 2010 , 2013 or 2016 - my guess is that Win-10 is optimised for 2016 Chris Broomfield Broomfield, Bromfield & Brumfield One Name Study -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of John P Laws via Sent: 21 March 2016 22:01 To: 'Ken Toll'; [email protected] Subject: Re: [G] (no subject) Hi One-Namers everywhere I use Microsoft Outlook 2007 with Business Contact Manager, which picks up all my mail including my Gmail, sadly since upgrading to Win-10 Office is misbehaving, deleting more that the indicated mail refusing to move mail into various distribution boxes. Excel is misbehaving as well and when editing work in Word or on my Google Blog It may take up to a dozen attempts to highlight a word or sentence or even to get buttons to illuminate Bold Italic etc My Norton Anti-Virus 365 is up to date So what is my problem John P Laws Registrar Laws Family Register Putting Flesh on the Bones of History www.lawsandlawes.blogspot.co.uk -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ken Toll via Sent: 21 March, 2016 11:55 AM To: Corinne Curtis; Goons mailing list Cc: Celia Dodd Subject: Re: [G] (no subject) I took the same decision as Corrine.

It makes sense to change to a cloud-based system - I don't possess an iPhone or tablet but that could change. I have thousands of old emails that I wish to be able to access somehow and I have exported them to a folder on the new laptop. >> >> I am not impressed with the little I have seen of 'Mail' in Windows >> 10.
