Good point, one of my CC's has been "burglarized on-line" three times. Oh joy. The other just once. Over a period of ten years or so. Best of luck with this, it's sure a good idea!

Alrighty then, after entering my password and "Entering" I see: "WARNING: GPT (GUID Partition Table) detected on 'dev/sda' ! The util fdisk doesn't support GPT. Use GNU Parted." Disk /dev/sda: 512.1 GB 512110190592 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track followed by a lot more normal looking HDD...

Peace, health and wealth be upon your households ThunderRd, booman, Daniel~ and Gizmo. Thank you oh so much! Copied and pasted your command, here is the return: [sudo] password for my-name: I sure hope it's what we want to see.

Thank you for the information allenskd. They're new, so who knows what shadow lurks?

After waiting four minutes to shutdown, plus eleven more minutes for M$ to ram components of Win10 down my throat unasked for...wait a minute... I was hallukinating from the horrible past. Eek! Praise Linux!! Shutdown and cold boot produced no password prompts. Me so happy! Except for the fact...

Thank you, ThunderRd! Ref ThunderRd post # 104 Rebooted, no prompts whatsoever were seen. Whew! Just for laughs I'm gonna do a complete shutdown and boot from "cold." Hoping no prompts are seen!

Ref Gizmo post # 91 Ref Daniel~ post # 98 Ref ThunderRd post # 97 Gizmo, the link you gave me about cutting - pasting text to the Terminal worked like a charm. Thank you very much! Thank you for the nudge Daniel, I needed that! Thank you Sir ThunderRd! I followed your instruction for Option A...

Re: ThunderRd's post #97 Because of Terminal's own weirdness it looks like there's a space between "login.keyring" as well as "user.keystore." Taking its foibles into account there is most, most likely no "Space" between them. Yes, Daniel~, Terminal can induce many errors because that's what...

Hope you sleep well and thank you very much ThunderRd!

It works as you expected this time, no problems. Just for accuracy, let me write what came after entering ls -la at the /.local/share/keyrings $ prompt: total 16 drwx------ 2 my-name my-name 4096 Mar 20 18:32 . drwxr-xr-x 13 my-name my-name 4096 Mar 22 17:42 .. -rw------- 1 my-name my-name...

Thank you very much, Gizmo! I will use your link and hopefully digest and remember the directions in the how-to copy and paste text into... Referencing ThunderRd #89 All the commands you listed in this post worked exactly as you said they would. Mirabile Dictu!! Thank you! Because all of...

Thank you a bunch, ThunderRd! Referencing your post #88 Hey, that's a LOT of posts on my behalf! "Thank you" seems smaller than the thanks I owe you by a lot. Thanks guy! Re: #88 by Thunder Rd I downloaded the diagram of Linux File Structure, it's important for future reference. Thanks! the...

Thank you ThunderRd! Referencing post # 87 by ThunderRd Selecting "select all" then "paste" either inside the Terminal window or from its title bar doesn't let me copy and paste the contents of the Terminal window. I'm taking special care to follow your directions exactly. Entering "ls" as...

cd /home/ returns: /home $ This is so embarrassing, are we going backwards here?

I can not cut and paste your directed lines to Terminal . OK, maybe this is the strange part coming up??? Sone a beetch. The first time I typed " ls /home/my-name/.gnome2:" I got: ls: cannot access /home/my-name/.gnome2: No such file or directory" Then I typed " ls...

ThunderRd, I don't know why I didn't supply the info you asked for when you asked for it. Please forgive me. Please tell me if I completed what you asked for. If not, I'll try again. Thank you very, very much for your patience!

What a great and encouraging post, Daniel~. Thank you VERY much!

I may be a bit bassackwords with this, but I thought it may be important. In Terminal, typing: ls /home/my-name/.gnome2 returns: accels gedit. A miracle, Terminal and Nemo agree on something. Yaay! Typing in Terminal ls /home/my-name/.gnome2/keyrings returns: cannot access/...

Thank you very much for your patience ThunderRd! Typing /home/my-name/ .gnome2 (inTerminal) gets me: Is a directory. Typing ls /home/my-name/.gnome2/keyrings (in Terminal) gets me: No such file or directory. Typing /home/my-name/.local/share/keyrings/login.keyring (in Terminal) gets me...

I always use Firefox here. New Problem: I can't update that motherfreakin' pos called "Flash" for this browser. WHY is it not obsolete, it's a security disaster?! For now, please don't try to help me with this, I have too many problems already. By gum, there is a "Passwords and Keys" entry in...
