   Sorry.  Too busy trying to deal with:

      One of the installers for this device cannot perform
      the installation at this time.

which stemmed from: VIDEO DXGKRNL FATAL ERROR

which stemmed from some kind of Windows Update problem which
replaced the AMD (ATI) driver for my old Radeon HD 2400 XT
card with a generic Microsoft Basic Display Adapter driver,
whose 60Hz refresh rate caused unpleasant flicker on my (old)
CRT display.  I replaced the old card with a new card, but
now Windows Update apparently can't install any device driver
for any device.


   As for Windows Explorer, this week it's called File
Explorer, and if you can't find it (or "This PC", or "My
Computer", ...) on your desktop, the I'd try Trapezoid (in
the lower-left corner) > Windows System > File Explorer, and,
when you get there, "This PC".

   It is pretty entertaining that anyone who does any
significant computer work these days can stay so ignorant of
the most commonly used OS on the planet.  It may be painful
to use/maintain, but some knowledge of it can be useful from
time to time.
