[You don't often get email from cozum...@gmail.com. Learn why this is important at https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification ] You do not understand. The program is LOCKED on my screen. I cannot use any of its features, I cannot close or open any windows within the program. I cannot shut it down, I cannot delete it. It is a s useless as tits on an alligator. UNDERSTAND??
