The idea of talking someone through using 7zip gives me nightmares. The fact it's multiple programs, has it's own file managers etc. Nah not worth trying to explain how to use it to a non-tech person.
I know it's a favorite program of a lot of people but personally I just think that's testament to how bad the situation is on windows.
- BizarroLand 3y agoMultiple programs and has its own file managers? I've not seen this in practice. Sure, it has a clunky gui, but outside of that 7-zip has excellent windows 10 or less integration and works fine in windows 11 even though the jerkwad potentates at M$ decided to hide the usual explorer options behind a second panel.
- KOTYAR 3y agoSounds like you didn't have to explain to someone after 2020 where X button to close the window is located. I work with about 100 women on my job, only a few of them younger than 40.
- BizarroLand 3y agoDo you typically say ageist and sexist things online? If you work IT support in any capacity, you should accept that your job is to solve problems for people who are doing things you either can't do or don't want to do. Their experience is outside of your wheelhouse, and you are there to make the technology transparent to their job function. If you can't do your job with a glad heart then find a different one. Have some humility.
