Mike, I  was wondering if that Flex utility that saves and restores DAX and CAT setings, does that utility also do the same thing with VSP? or only DAX and CAT?

Hi Bob WK2Y

Could you recommend a concise reference to follow on Windows updates that would be useful for hams?

On this last update I was foxed that some of the information I could have used was behind paywalls, and I was working remote without the credentials handy.  Fortunately I was able to search until I found several university websites where they had rolled out recovery advice to their large scale user bases, which then scaled down to my organization's experience very quickly.

Strange to say that as not all updates hose systems, we tend to put away our tools and back-burner techniques long enough that I ended up creating a set of notes and a bookmark folder so I can come back to what worked to repair things again.

My go to source is www.askwoody.com   Great detailed information.  I pay for their newsletter.  It's on all things Windows.   I also have a Google news search set up for Forbes + Windows.  Forbes gets the latest about Windows problems and gets it out fast.  There are more Windows focused newsletter but I can always read the Forbes articles.  It's always a bit disconcerting to see the issues, but fortunately, I haven't been impacted by 99% of what they report. 

Hope that helps.  If you need more info, let me know.

Mike- You Da man! I was having problems and luckily had a backup of my CAT.settings file. I kept copying it over but CAT was barfing silently and if/when it would come up I got a Failed FlexVSP port error. I tried the repair step and recopied my CAT.settings file and all is good.

Thanks!
