Kewl beans, Kenny.
 
I wasn't asking so that I got any credit for suggesting the SFC /scannow utility - I was just hoping to help any future folks with the same sort of issue find out that running that utility might be able to fix issues for them, and seeing your solved or having an Answered flag on it. :)
 
I am VERY happy for you that you were able to get past your earlier frustrating issues.  Now, quit reading these threads and go make some music!  WOOHOO! :)

Hi Bob ,
 
It's all cool .  I honestly do appreciate all the help 
 
I was locked out of the forum for a couple of days due to something. I don't know what ..a couple of other guys this also happened too.
As crazy as this may sound I'm so happy to be back up and running on my little beater Win 10  lap top ...
It has only just the basic install of SPlat w out all the extra 3rd party dodads ...
 
I love because it forces me to learn how to use what I already have effectively ....
 
Yes, I have gotten back to doing music ....
I'm recording and working on some new music with my 8 string guitar ...(3 months of playing it under my belt )
People have asked me how it sounds in my thread on it , so I created this little clip today to give them an idea .
 
Warning Warning  , this clip may not totally ready for prime time ..but hey , when did that ever stop me

all the best,

Kenny - I took a listen, and liked both the tone and music itself.  Nicely done, Sir.
