I can't answer the question concerning if it is the way FS or 8.x storing files, but Londa Peterson's directions finally helped me locate the HJ pad. I think someone, can't remember who on this list, suggested helps for saving HJ pad to the desktop. The exact directions for saving to desktop didn't work, but I was able to successfully save HJ pad to the desktop. I feel that I am beginning to get this 8.1 computer similar to my older pc. If I could just get my email program to stop freezing or whatever it's lagging is, things would be great. I did delete cookies, but am still having that problem.
I appreciate all of you on this list so much. This has been such a tremendous help to me, considering my intermediate computer skills. Have a wonderful day.

Why not name that folder something more meaningful such as ... I don't know. Let's have a contest to come up with a more meaningful folder name and suggest it to FS?
