I had a computer guy do my Ubuntu upgrade to 16 but as you wrote here, he
did not do it well (and I already paid him a generous price for his time).
He warned me he is not so familiar with Ubuntu as with Windows. So should
I call him back or pay again to have someone who really knows Ubuntu
correct the whole problem. Would you know someone in Jerusalem Israel who
could be called in or I could bring in my hard disk to him but he should be
recommended by you. Have a wonderful week and thanks for warning me.
