Dnk Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 (edited) So I have windows 8.1 and use google chrome Over the weekend i've had problems logging onto my email and now its totally stopped After speaking to BT and them doing line checks and also a line refresh they tell me I need to upgrade to at least windows 10 to be able to use my BT email Not impressed with this and you'd think you'd at least get a warning message before hand Edited October 16, 2023 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guigsy Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 yeah thats probably bs... but windows 8 is fkin ancient i work in IT and if someoene called me and said they are windows 8, id probably tell them to upgrade too just to get them off the phone. i wouldnt even know where stuff is in the menus its been so long 10 is great. and once you turn 11 back into something more like 10 its fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mc92 Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 I put all my emails into Thunderbird, that way I don't have to go on the websites to check them. The Hotmail website especially has become a pile of trash and almost freezes my PC when I visit it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 Everyone should be on a Mac. Even my ancient iMac works flawlessly. I have a windows laptop for work and I hate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
