I recently upgraded my main workstation from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. The initial upgrade had a number of issues; one of which was my monitors would never shut off and go into power saving mode/screen saver and the computer would no longer go to sleep. This had been working 100% prior to the Windows […]
For the past 2 months I have had issues with my GotoMeeting not sharing my screen or applications correctly. I would share either a screen or application and there would often be a 2-5 minute delay until it started showing up for other participants in the meeting.

I ran into an issue with a recent Outlook 2013 upgrade where a new calendar labeled with “this computer only” appeared and all of my new appointments started going to it instead of to my usual default calendar.
