Thanks for your comprehensive reply Steve.
Firstly, updates informed me that my comp is not suitable for W11, so I'm
guessing that it is not going to bother lumping my comp with data it can't use.
This all happened suddenly after years of being fine. I have roughly timed
chrome's operating speed, and it is approx 100x slower than normal, taking
about 90-100 secs to open any given app such as my email, or IIS.
As a temporary measure I have enabled Edge, which seems to be working,
slightly slower than chrome did, but perfectly acceptable. I am still using chrome at sub glacial pace for a few apps that have shortcuts on the chrome
page, that I don't know how to locate in Edge. Most of what you suggest is
beyond my capabilities; I think I might have to bite the bullet and take it to my local [expensive] guru.
