If I had page by page directions, I think I would want to install Firefox. There was a time when I could figure out things for myself on a computer, but not any more.

I’m just so stinking tired of MS and it’s arbitrary mandatory replacing one OS for another.

I want something that is reliable and relatively easy to navigate.

WinTen has that new Edge browser. I haven''t played with it other than to launch it for a lookiesee.. Also it seems that if you get to WinTen via the upgrade it brings along tired old Internut Exploder from the old Windows version. Assuming you load your favorites into IE, you could always then start up the Edge thing and import them into it and see if you can figure it out, or at least live with it. Somewhere along the line MS will give IE the final guillotine..

And another thing I note. They say that WinTen doesn't have Windows Media Player, but I see it on the machine here. Possibly due to the upgrade from Win7. But I downloaded and installed VLC media player anyway.

As to Firefox there are some online tutorials, like this one: Free Firefox Tutorial

Or this one from Bleeping Computer.. Switching from Internet Explorer to Firefox (A word of caution on this one - it is dated and while good for general overview, the screen shots are not at all like the latest version. Good for general reading though.)

And then there's the Firefox Support web page with a bunch of relevant topics: How to install Firefox and keep it up to date
