Listen you dumb fuck, the World runs on MS OS's and Windows 7 is the

 

very best OS available today.

 

That you can't figure that out or that you can afford 7 is no reason

 

for you to keep posting your FUD in this ng.

 

Get lost and don't bother to come back.

Well that would depend on how you write email. Do you use a email

 

program or a web interface (Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo, etc...)? Which one

 

you use is going to determine how easy or hard it may be.

 

 

 

Now if you just downloaded a file and didn't pay attention to where it

 

was downloaded, then that's a whole different ballgame as there are

 

several places it may have been saved to.

You've already gotten some answers to your question as you asked it,

 

but I have a different point of view for you. Don't send it as an

 

attachment. You have two much easier choices:

 

 

 

1. Forward the message you already sent.

 

 

 

2. Copy and paste the text of the message you already sent into a new

 

message.

 

 

 

 

 

Not only are those choices easier for you, but you don't have to worry

 

about how the recipient would treat an attachment. For example, if you

 

sent me a message with an attachment, I wouldn't open the attachment.

 

Attachments can contain malware and can be dangerous. For that reason

 

I don't open them.

Actually they did mean the PC Power Button. For PCs that are ACPI

 

compliant and properly configured, Windows controls the response. Of

 

course if you set the BIOS to shut the PC off immediately if you press

 

the Power Switch instead of holding for 4 seconds then Windows doesn't

 

have a chance to intervene. Microsoft didn't make the mistake. -)

The majority is usually wrong and your sentence structure sucks big

 

time. Majorities have believe things like the world is flat, blood

In *any* case "best" is an adjective and because you wrote the post,

 

YOUR opinion.

Um, "wonder" was used as a verb, speaking of not being very bright.

 

"Wonder" is never used as an adjective. It can only be a noun or a verb.

Yes it works, but then the whole point of a GUI is that you shouldn't

 

have to type the name of what you want, it also doesn't give you any

 

clue where it is for future, so you just have to type it again next time.

Eh? So how does the OS KNOW what you are searching for? Of COURSE you have to TELL it what you want to find...

 

 

 

 

 

it also doesn't give you any

If you right-click on the found search item you get an "open File location" option......

I guess you haven't tried right clicking on the file and selecting "Open

 

File Location". There you can see the full path to where the file is on

 

the hard drive.

"The belief that the Earth was flat was typical of ancient

 

cosmologies until about the 4th century BC[6], when the

 

Ancient Greek philosophers proposed the idea that the Earth

 

was a sphere, or at least rounded in shape. Aristotle was one

 

of the first thinkers to propose a spherical Earth in 330 BC.

 

By the early Middle Ages, it was widespread knowledge

 

throughout Europe that the Earth was a sphere."

The verb definition you posted above is correct in describing

 

the way 'wonder' was used. See the #1 verb definition.

I snipped the rest.. They did not mean the PC Power Button as you said,

 

when they wrote 'press the power button' they did not mean press they meant

 

left-click etc. etc. However I said that it is easy to get hold of the

claiming that the word 'power' in that context has nothing to do with

 

electricity? Or were you referring to a different part of the help system

 

where they put initial capitals on Power and Button in which case you've got

 

the wrong bit? You might be of the same mindset as the help writer and the

 

queen of hearts thinking that words can mean precisely what she says they

 

mean without bothering to give any definitions. Lewis Carroll was well

 

aware that this renders language unintelligible. Or perhaps the word power

 

has acquired a different meaning in the USA and India.

 

 

 

My message was intended to be a mild protest against people being nastily

You are live on Usenet. Please do not swear. I tried your first

 

suggestion. It did not work. (I started an email message, clicked attach

 

file, clicked Start, typed part of a file name in the search box with an

 

asterisk on the end, right clicked a word document file which was listed,

 

and paused because there was no such option as sending to mail recipient -

 

so I double clicked on it instead and it opened in Word. That was no good

 

of course.

 

 

 

I tried your second suggestion. All the things I could easily find about

 

mail after opening the document file in Word, as you suggested, were of

 

course to do with what I, being a bit old fashioned, would term snail mail,

 

there was no obvious option to set it as an attachment to an email. So that

 

didn't work either.

 

 

 

So it was a serious question, deliberately designed to show the difficulty

 

of finding things and demonstrating exactly what difficulty a user will have

 

because of this shortcoming. I chose attaching a document file to an email

 

because it is something many users will need to do and because it is a

 

function that users will think that they need to know the file's location.

 

 

 

I assume that you told me your two easiest and best methods so I won't ask

 

for the other two. (I know of course exactly how to do it because it is

 

obvious within a few minutes of beginning Win7 that file locations will be a

 

problem so I needed to solve it).

 

 

 

I am afraid that the original poster was quite correct, Windows 7 is not

 

great at making it simple and straightforward to find a file when you don't

 

know where it is, and it is very good at making sure that the user does not

 

actually know where files are. Even the Search facility is dodgy at telling

 

you where the things are when it has found them.

There you are then. If the document file was easy to find (i.e. if the user

 

knew where they were kept, or it was easy to find them (surely not by

 

displaying full pathnames at the screen top like they used to - that would

 

make it far too easy for the idiot users), it would not make a jot of

 

difference what one was using. Of course I assume that many users are like

 

me and use web mail and email software.

 

 

 

The point of my question was to show that needing to know where a file is

 

matters to users, and Win7 is bad at it.

I guess you haven't tried right clicking on the file and selecting "Open

 

File Location". There you can see the full path to where the file is on

 

the hard drive. >

 

 

 

That is an excellent method. However I see a snag. You can't right click

 

on it until you know where it is already.

 

 

 

Somebody else wrote a sarky message about using search. Firstly that

 

facility is not good at telling you where the file(s) are. Secondly, and I

 

really don't know why this is, it is not good at finding them.

 

I discovered this because I bought a game, named Napoleon Total War, and

 

installed it on my new PC the day it was delivered. It didn't work, so I

 

immediately tried to find it by typing napoleon into the search facility

 

after starting 'computer' and double clicking the C drive icon. After many

 

minutes, it didn't find it - I am fairly sure it had stopped searching.

 

After a think, I decided that the search facility might be lacking, so I

 

started again and browsed down to the Program files directory and repeated

 

the search and it found it.

 

 

 

I tentatively decided that one needs to know approximately where a thing is

 

before searching. I reckon the guy who wrote the search might be your twin

 

brother. Only joking of course.

Well that's not MY experience or many others - and I've used every version of Windows since 3.11, and also Unix, AIX and Linux.

 

Windows 7 is pretty GOOD at finding files AND showing the location of them.
