No problem. Just remember that you are in a new operating system and
that users who are able to help you are most likely well established Linux
users and set in our ways. :) Some Linux users have never used Windows at
all which may surprise some people. I have used Windows, but nothing later
than XP and that is but a distant memory. While we may be smart about some
things we are not familiar with everything. Some of us are thin skinned when
it comes to Windows and Windows users who flocking to Linux in droves ( a
good thing), but bringing Windows habits (not a good thing) to the Linux
world.
I know that you did not mean to cause offence. I see many such comments and
they invariably rub me the wrong way which is my problem and not yours.
Don't hesitate to ask for help. Just remember to provide as much information
as possible. In this case, tell us what the applications is. I see that you
have now done this and hope that someone can help you.
