Forums are rarely helpful
In my experience when looking for a solution through a forum post the following will happen:
1. Someone posts looking for help describing the issue you have on the hardware you have running the software you have.
2. Several pages of people suggesting obvious solutions (try turning it off and on again, reinstall etc)
3. A dozen or more pages that goes off on a wild derail about something not even remotely connected to the issue.
4. Several pages of people having a flamewar.
5. Post ends either abruptly with no solution or the original poster saying "Thanks, I managed to get it working" without mentioning what the bloody solution was.
The exception to this is a Microsoft Answers where, no matter what the issue is, the flagged solution is ALWAYS "Run SFC"
Windows not booting? Run SFC (marked as solution)
Email not being received? Run SFC (marked as solution)
PC has exploded embedding computer parts in the wall and the user? Run SFC (marked as solution)
Biting the hand that feeds IT
