Hi.
Well we all heard about inaccessible antivirus and sadly this seems to be spreading.
Its spreading to things we use like skype app, and cloud storage.
I use dropbox a lot, it mostly works then again I don’t need to share right now or set anything right at the current moment.
What got me started on this is that I have icloud for a system and its totally inaccessible now, I can use it and get things to run ok but there is some image or window covering it and this with the v7 upgrade.
That is not fully to bad, but google has bundled the photos and drive app together.
While all in all thats fine some of the options could be a lot better.
Things like the my computer, desktop and photos buttons do not press or read statuses if pressed or not.
There is also an invisible window appearing all the time when the thing runs.
Intel has a new updater to which sadly is not accessible till you click it then the internal web app which is online is quite accessible, better than the older app but still.
On upgrading automatically to the new drive app backup sync, it would crash randomly.
To fix things I had to uninstall and then restart else you get issues all over the place.
Then you need to hope it doesn’t upload your computer to itself and choose the right drive to store it all.
I managed with some trial and error to turn all that off.
This took most of the morning.
I really hope this trend doesn’t continue, at least with security software there is a sort of way out, but with this stuff, dropbox, google and icloud not to mention modern skype.
Its a bit of a problem.
Some things go up others down.
