Best replacement for USB 300Mbps Wifi Antenna Wireless LAN Internet Adapter 802.11 n/g/b Network

LOL! We must be related! I had a 1967 911S back in the day. I think I'll try the higher speed 1300 . . . any improvement at all here will be worth the extra $$$.

Best replacement for USB 300Mbps Wifi Antenna Wireless LAN Internet Adapter 802.11 n/g/b Network

Was looking at your suggestion of the N300, and noticed the AC1900 and AC1300 both have higher speed capability. Would either of these be better to help me out here with my low speed WiFi connection?

Help with Acronis 2020, my PC no longer boots to USB first

Still beating my brains out trying to get the Asus to boot from USB . . . For the life of me I cannot understand why Acronis would sell a product that does not automatically do this for us dummies. I even bought their Universal Restore USB when I purchased the software. It does nothing when...

Thoughts on Software Tools/Utilities for Windows 10?

So you suggest I remove iola System Mechanic? What about these claims to remove system clutter such as old internet and windows files? Are these claims just B.S.? Do these old files bog the system down?

Thoughts on Software Tools/Utilities for Windows 10?

I've always used these type tools way back since Norton Utilities and DOS days. Since Windows I've been using ASC by Iobit and System Mechanic and/or similar programs. Now with Windows 10 I understand one does not need such tools. I'd like some input as to your thoughts about this. BTW...

Help with Acronis 2020, my PC no longer boots to USB first

I just made two of them because I'm not sure of what I'm doing or how to use Acronis. I made a USB one "for this PC" and one for "any PC." Is that what you are talking about?

It installed Win 10 Home version. I thought all Win 10 were the same? Anyway, everything seems to be fine and running smooth. Should I run SFC to double check?
