A friend asked for some computer help and when I asked him to replicate the problem, he closed the error window before I could read it. I think that was when I gave up helping people with their computer problems.
That’s when I tell them “Do it all over again, and this time don’t close the error message. I’ll be playing sudoku on my phone, call me when you have the error message for me.”
That time had passed by then. If I remember correctly, it ended up being a simple problem they could have solved themselves if they had read the message and understood the words.
