[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Microsoft Store "Merge PDF Free"

in answer to Paul's issue connecting to hotel WiFi with a Chromebook:
Chromebook Won’t Connect To Hotel WiFi – How To Fix
https://www.techjunkie.com/chromebook-wont-connect-to-hotel-wifi-how-to-fix/

Don't reset the Chromebook. It isn't worth the effort in this situation.
Chromebooks have the same browser security as Chrome Stable Web Browser for Windows. There are certain types of page redirects for logging into some public WiFi networks. The Lexington Community Center has such a redirect, as do many libraries. Chrome may refuse the redirect, resulting in a failure to authenticate even when you know the network's password. You just never get to the redirect page. 
I think there's a way to get around this security restriction, but I don't know what it is. Usually if this happens, I'm out of luck for that network.

Hi Paul

We were just talking about you – wondering if you are still in Paris or some other place given the pandemic, etc.

Good to hear that all is well – stay healthy.

I don’t have an answer to your question but am copying our Computer group. Maybe somebody there knows. We no longer are on a YAHOO group, so email and past lectures are stored differently.

Maybe you would be interested in giving us a talk? Via ZOOM, of course.

Best to you and your wife

George

Hi George

This Paul- usually in Paris.

Is there a Chromebook guru in the club I could chat to? I'm having difficulty in connecting to a captive portal with a Chromebook while we are staying in a hotel here. 

Best wishes

Paul

 

I'm in the area for a few days.

Thanks

George

Has anyone used this PDF merge software? Any good/bad experience?

I downloaded from MSFT Store and launched the app, but I'm not sure if this is a Microsoft approved app.

 

Any suggestions of any other PDF merger applications on PC platforms you can recommend? 

 

Thanks

Evie
