Sorting and emerging contents
Trying to escape files being automatically (even in not wanted) to One Drive. Faced with many files handed from one computer to another I know there are many duplicates spread over two external hard drives as well as main drive. SO …. purchased 5T drive and patiently ensuring I have […]
