2 questions - where to post for windows 7 and about slow performance of windows 7.

[LD5SZRA]

Hi Sheana,

I have been using alt.windows7.general for my Windows7 newsgroup. As far
as i know, Microsoft has not created a Windows newsgroup on their server
and have made no announcements about an intention to do so.

You can use forums for Windows 7. Try this link:

<alt.windows7.general > is not ideal for anybody looking for real help
because there is lots of swearing and bullying going on. I am one of them
there too!!!

Hi,
I need help in finding where to post for windows 7. Kindly advise as to
which newsgroup I should be addressing.

Secondly, I was trying to uninstall a 3rd party program using "Programs
and Features" in the Control Panel. It used to be called "Add/Remove
Programs" in WinXP. I highlighted the program I wished to uninstall, and
clicked "uninstall". That little progress circle that goes around and
around drove me crazy and I waited for about 10 minutes for the OS to
gather "configuration information" about the program to be uninstalled.
In disgust, I finally clicked "cancel" to abort the operation. Is this
typical performance for Windows 7? If it is, what is Microsoft thinking
about - this is outrageous! If I am doing something wrong or
incorrectly, PLEASE enlighten me. This can't be right.


Thanks in advance.
