Firefox Quantam

The Windows 10 Update has some enormous bugs.

Especially for Chrome Users but there is also an Issue with the Win Explorer.

MS will release a Patch soon, so you better switch off the Automatc Update Function

I refused my own Advice and downloaded the Update

Still chugging along with Windows 8 - did they make a Windows 9 do you know? I've always liked that number

Firefox made an Update again (It's Version 64.0 now)

If you have used any kind of RSS Feed/Live Bookmarks , they won't work anymore.

After the Update, Firefox exports your existing Feeds/Bookmaks into this File "firefox feeds backup.opml"
The File shows up on your Desktop.

If you still wan't to use your RSS Feeds, you can Import them into another Feed Reader

Here is a List of Readers.

If your Hardware, especially the RAM, (at least 4 GGB DDR3) isn't to old, you can Update to Win 10 for free

My systems can handle it ok, I just haven't wanted to do it. I like to have the same operating system at home as I do at work because I do work stuff at home and it's a lot easier if I move stuff between computers. At work, I have some equipment that will require new software when I change operating systems and the software is expensive plus there are always bugs and a learning curve that I hate dealing with when I'm trying to be productive. That's why I drag my feet when it comes to changing operating systems.
