If I could swear this whole title would be dirty words is how angry I am!
SO! My dear mother is pretty much retarded when it comes to technology. One day she was checking her e-mail and doing things for her friend John (let it be known that I hate the guy due to the fact that he is RUINING our family.)
So some Trend Micro thing pops up asking if she would like to block a program. Not even reading what that program is she blocks it. Well that program was internet explorer. Luckily for me I prefer firefox so I downloaded it when we got the computer, so now everyone is using firefox. No problem right we can all get on the internet right?
Well that's not good enough for my mom. She HAS to get internet explorer because of her Favorites. So I tried a few things and I'm like "Sorry mom, can't get it back, maybe you should read before you block something!"
So she's talking to her friend who thinks she's all up on the internet and tells her to restore our computer. My mom does it. So I get up and go online and my mom is like "Angela I restored the computer. But it didn't get internet explorer"
I COULD HAVE TOLD HER THAT! Some things can't be restored!!!!! So now I'm stuck redownloading/installing everything she undid! But that's not at all the reason why I'm EXTREMELY upset.
So while I'm doing this I go to Microsoft Word, and I go to open my story up "The Ultimate Fairy Tale" and I can't find it. Then it dawns on me my mom restored the computer so it's GONE! All because she couldn't just deal with freaking firefox! UGH!
I can of course just copy and paste it from my story but everything for the new chapter I wrote isn't there. It bothers me because my mom has to mess the whole freaking computer up just because she can't deal with firefox.
FML.
