I'm still clarting around but haven't found anything, other than the 'Auto Sign in' & 'Check Passwords', in Settings that I could suggest updating. Roll on next time I go into a room and think - why did I come in here - I might get a light bulb moment.- North Terrace from Eva Abdin.jpg

@John Fox (foxy) - would you add your photos of the demolition of the rows to the entry for Doctor Terrace. @James - are there any images of Telephone Row, New South Row and Cross row in the books you have? I have searched on the local Facebook groups but can't find any photos showing the houses or back lanes.- How do I remember all these PIN codes?
@Andy Millne :- is there something saved on this site when a machine + the operating system connects to the site? Could there be an old operating system associated with CL's login that is resulting in her having to input login details from her upgraded system.🙃- 8C9386F7-DF91-4239-A837-DF191D9D6FA8.jpeg

@Canny lass - forgot to add - as I am starting to forget things, especially passwords of 8, or more, letters that include :- numeric, special characters, upper & lower case alpha a few years ago I created an Excel spreadsheet with all my Login Id's, passwords and info associated with each one. Naturally that Excel document is not held on any PC but on a Memory Stick that can be accessed on numerous hardwrae devices. All I have to do now is remember to keep that Memory Stick up to date- How do I remember all these PIN codes?
@Canny lass - I had a bit clart on my PC and if you are using Windows 10 ( I would assume Win 7 & 8 exactly the same) and Google then I believe what you should be looking for is :- Setings , Auto-fill and Passwords. First select the 3 dots at the top left corner of your Google browser screen That will bring up a menu with 'Settings' in it - select Settings That will bring up a screen with selections down the left of the screen and there will be an 'Auto-fill' icon, select that and that will bring up the Password option - select that that should bring up - 'Offer to save Passwords' = a slide bar and I would guess your slide bay is switched off. Switch it on. Now what I don't know is that when you slide it to On if your previously saved passwords will be brought back , ie. from a file that was not affected by your upgrade, or if you will be starting again from scratch. I did not experiment with my 'slide bar' as I didn't want to risk loosing the 100+ passwords I have saved.- St Bede's Junior School c1959 named.jpg
