As Zig Ziglar used to say, &#8220;We all need a daily check-up from the neck up to avoid stinkin&#8217; thinkin&#8217; which can ultimately lead to hardening of the attitudes.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-great-news\">Great News<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">I&#8217;ve used a lot of programs and apps in my computer lifetime.  I have to tell you that the Microsoft PowerToys app has one of the best features I&#8217;ve seen.  Once you install the program, each of the toys has a clear explanation of how to use it.  When you open the app, on the left side is a list of each toy.  When you click or tap a toy, clear instructions appear on the right side of the window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-where-do-you-get-powertoys\">Where Do You Get PowerToys?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Although at the seminar, I showed a complicated method of getting PowerToys there&#8217;s a much easier way!  Just open the Microsoft Store in Windows 10 or 11 and search &#8220;PowerToys.&#8221; (With or without quotation marks.)  When you choose the app, it will download and install and you&#8217;re ready to go!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Microsoft PowerToys &#8211; have you ever heard of it?
