Did you go through the actual install process? If so, why are you still using the flash drive?
Also, windows executables don't run on Linux and that "driver updater" is a steaming pile of faecal matter, Windows or not. Don't use that garbage.
You would have gone through an install process where you choose the location for the OS, it installs it, which takes a bit, and then it wants to reboot, where it loads from the new install. It is quite possible you just ran it as a "live" install from the flash stick and you have since, buggered that up.
Yeah, that sounds about right. So how do I fix this?
Which one sounds right? I gave two scenarios, LOL
don't know if it was a complete install or not. I have never used this O/S. It seemed to be working all right. So how do I know if it's a complete install? It nwver wanted to do a reboot.
If you never rebooted, you were running off the flash stick/live disk the entire time.
