Had some time so I burned a Blu-Ray disk successfully. The burning software read through the disk and verified it so I know it was an error-free burn. Went to run setup.exe and it errored out on me - telling me to reboot the machine and run it again.
I do not know what it is about that particular machine but it is being nothing but trouble. Going to download MalwareBytes and do a deep system scan. Went through and uninstalled anything and everything I could think of. It had been a home machine for a long time (almost ten years) so there were a lot of crufty files and old odd bits of software. This is Windows 7 we are talking about so maybe it picked up something along the way. I'll know in an hour or so. Running the Windows Disk Cleanup utility to nuke any old files first. Defrag and then try the deep scan. Turning the network connection off when I do not need it of course...
Then, some videos and an early bedtime - volunteering tomorrow morning, meeting up with some people at the local library for the Arts Group and then moderating an online meeting that evening. Tomorrow's forecast calls for Hot Hot Hot.
Gorgeous sunset - finally cooling off outside and nice colors in the sky. The dogs are staying home tomorrow - they will be pissed but better that than suffering in a hot car.
