In a message on Saturday 02-26-16 Tom Walker said to Holger Granholm:   
      
   GM Tom,   
      
   Thank you very much for your reply.   
   I knew that you have used various tool programs for many years, and that   
   you prefer free programs as they work for you. So you have the experience   
   to advice us "new" (since XP) Windows users.   
      
   HG>I have installed the Easeus todo-Backup, and note that it can clone   
   HG>disks.   
      
   TW> I did have soem problems with Easus todo Backup Free. the biggest   
   TW> one is that to make a CD for use with my ohter computers it needs   
   TW> the pay edition.   
      
   OK, thanks for the hint. That one I recalled, but wasn't sure where it   
   came from, and what program it was.   
      
   TW> There are several other free Image/cloning programs but since I have   
   TW> had very good sucess with True Image by Acronis I have settled on   
   TW> that one   
      
   Yes, I have also used it in my XP laptop, but it didn't accept Win10 as   
   a working environment.   
      
   HG>Also I did install the Easeus Partition Manager, and made new partitions   
   HG>in the free part of the HD. That worked OK.   
      
   TW> Great Program and the one i use   
      
   Thanks for your experience.   
      
   HG>I did also install the Paragon Partition Master but deleted that one,   
      
   TW> Many years ago I started with Partition Magic but dropped it when   
   TW> Norton bought it   
      
   Many moons ago I too used Partition Magic, but I don't think the Paragon   
   Partition Master is the same program.   
      
   There also is an extremely useful tool program that really covers all   
   bases, discussed above, and more. It's named DFsee and is available for   
   all known operating and HD filing systems, but I don't know if it in my   
   case would cover both OS/2 and Windows with the same registration fee.   
      
   TW> After so many uears of the Win 95, 98, Me and XP Start I jsut could   
   TW> not get used to the Win 7 and later one so went using Classic Start   
      
   That was also my first reaction to it in the beginning.   
      
   The Win10 GUI was, if not frightening, at least very odd as compared to   
   the OS/2 and XP GUI's, but Im slowly getting the hang of it.   
      
   You know, "teaching an old dog, new tricks", hi.   
      
   HG>I did also find that the e-mail program PMMail that I have used in OS/2,   
   HG>is now available also for Windows, .....   
      
   I had to abandon that, because it refused to connect to my Mobile   
   Internet provider, so I had to succumb to Thunderbird that connected OK,   
   to the tune of 1784 mails that had gathered there, since they ceased the   
   POTS support.   
      
   TW> I am quite satisfied with Thunderbird, but then there is this "Old   
   TW> Dogs and New Tricks" thing in my case   
      
   Yes, I'm now in the same situation. I have probably lost two of the   
   latest messages, because I thought that "Archive" did mean to save the   
   messages for later reading/replying. Now I can't find them along with   
   some other messages that I thought I'd save, while deleting most of   
   those amassed 1784 messages.   
      
   I have found the messages in the "Junk" folder, but so far I have not   
   been able to get any text from them.   
      
   Neither do I find any manual for Thunderbird, among the files downloaded   
   at the installation. I hate to have to hang on the net to read manuals.   
      
   TNX VY much for letting us lesser beings become a part of your long-term   
   experience.
