Windows 10: Heavily advertised device "Xtra PC"

I see lots of ads for a device called "Xtra PC"


The device looks like a flash drive, and the ads all claim that is to be plugged in to a USB port while the PC is off. When the PC is turned on, the device supposedly replaces the Resident OS mac or Windows with Linux,


1 Has anybody here used this device?


2 does the device work as claimed?


3 Does it work as claimed with desktop PC's? The adsall describe it being used with laptops.


INCIDENTALLY: None of the "categories" or "topics" in the drop-down menus below are relevant to ANY inquiry.

Unable to attach documents using Xtra mail on Windows 10.

Hello Bruce,



Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. We regret the inconvenience caused and will assist you in resolving the issue.



From the above description, I understand you are unable to attach documents directly from the file it was saved in on Xtra mail on Windows 10.



Before assisting further, I would like to ask you few questions:

• Which browser are you using to login into Xtra mail account?
• Did you check if similar issue persists on logging into the mail account on another browser?

If the issue persists on using Edge browser to login into Xtra mail account,
I suggest you to run the Windows apps troubleshooter and check if the
issue is resolved if you haven’t tried the method before.



In many cases, the Windows Store will automatically notify you if there’s a problem with an app and try to fix the problem. If you continue experiencing problems with an app, this tool can automatically identify and fix some problems with apps and
the Store.



If the issue persists, check if similar issue persists on logging in into the Xtra mail account on another browser.



Write to us with the answers to the above questions and the status of the issue on the same post for further assistance. Your reply is most important for us to ensure we assist you accordingly.



Thank you.

 

PC Build Steps

Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval

• Install system in case
  • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
• Turn on PC
• setup HDD
• run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
  • run realtemp at the same time

• While in Prime95 test
  • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
  • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
  • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!

What do you guys think??
