- Your files live in Home. Click the folder icon in the taskbar. Documents, Pictures, Music, Downloads — it's all there.
- Website not working in Firefox? Try Chromium instead. Look for "Browser Fix (Chromium)" in your AI folder on the Desktop.
- Keyboard shortcuts work! Ctrl+C (copy), Ctrl+V (paste), Ctrl+Z (undo) — just like Windows.
