Agreed. You can almost find an answer with a Google search. However,
the "official" help from Microsoft in these groups is sometimes
terrible,
with the helper offering trivial solutions that the questioner has
almost always tried.


Who uses Google? Why?
Try duckduckgo.com


I just tried it with my recent printer problem. It was even worse than
Google.



I was speaking "in general". My Linux uses the same printer system as
Apple, CUPS. I have never had to fish for a printer driver, just agree
with the software.

duckduckgo doesn't save your browsing history or push certain names.


Man, this is developing into an "advocacy" ****ing contest. Leave him to
his Windows or Mac, you are only poking a bear. I, myself, use PCLinuxOS,
have since 2008. Before that, OS/2, never Windows. You're ****ing in
the wind with this guy.
