Short cuts
« on: Thursday 18 February 16 00:33 GMT (UK) »
I have lost the ability to find them and maybe the contents of my "Favorites" I have them as a shortcut which up to yesterday I could select and click and up would come "OPEN" but today when I click on the icon it states "Restore Previous Version" I then select the Previous Version page on the same site and it states "There are no previous versions"  I am using Windows 10 (I wish I had not changed from Vista now!!) and Fire Fox as my browser (I think) Any answers please do not exceed words longer than one syllable as I am antique and get baffled when I get technical answers using computer speak.
Thank You Dennis

Hi, I know what it's like!
when I went on window 10 I copied everything to a separate drive, mine pc kept updating and wiping off all my stuff.
Try this.....
on the bottom left where the window box is with 4 windows inside....
click on it and look down the boxes and find ....
THIS PC
click into it. on the left is the list of files and places.
look into each one of the list until you find what you are looking for.
I couldn't find any saved docs. from web sites until I came across this and woweee there they were.
I hope this helps you, it helped me!
Good luck.
