According to the notice on his Web site he's dealing with a computer failure. I hope it gets fixed soon.

Thank you!

Yeah, the OS apparently got corrupted somehow, so I left the machine at the repair shop literally minutes before we took off to spend a few days with family in Richmond. I’ll pick it up Monday morning and then rush to reinstall software - and of course I have a Zoom presentation Tuesday evening.

Now may be a good time to consider a backup machine, loaded with all the software, but unused unless it is needed. Just a thought.

For the most part, the operating system has its own drive and all data files are on a separate one, so with luck, I didn’t lose too much.

I have a NAS, but with recent changes in security requirements, I cannot use it for any First Rays stuff.
