I imagine I set that up when I first configured the computer, but, don't know where that setting is.

So, it can be done....
Thanks. I have done that on all of my PCs. For some reason I cannot fix it on this PC. I am at my wits end on this one. I have Googled it and tried all of the fixes and nothing works. The unfortunate thing is that it is not my PC and I have to travel to try some of the fixes. And since it is not mine, I am hesitant to try some of the fixes since I do not want to damage the PC.
