If cost is an issue, then ... I don't know if I'm just hallucinating or not, but at the end of each calendar school year, many university and college dorms have small piles of ... wait for it ... microwave ovens (amongst other gadgets) piled high outside as students are moving out for the summer.
I don't exactly see armed guards surrounding those piles.

I don't know about anywhere else in the world, but in the U.S., there's a dire warning of death with any product you buy, including a Happy Meal. Because of the fear of lawyers, every product gets warning labels no matter how sill it is, so people are now conditioned to totally ignore warnings. Pick up a can of spray paint. The instructions take up 2/3 of the can, and 9/10s of that is warnings of some type.
 
But yes, microwaves are uniquely qualified to end someone's life. To those who don't know, microwave ovens seem less dangerous than a TV or stereo receiver, so how could they hurt someone?
 
So, to anyone reading this that is thinking about repairing their microwave: BE CAREFUL. MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE IN YOUR HOUSE, A MICROWAVE IS CAN KILL YOU EVEN WHEN IT'S UNPLUGGED!

Do the insurance folk have to pay benefits if non-licensed electricians forget to bleed capacitors?

Trying to use windows powercfg command prompt.
 
C:\Windows\system32>powercfg /batteryreport
gets
Invalid Parameters -- try "/?" for help
 
C:\Windows\system32>/powercfg /batteryreport
gets
'/powercfg' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
blah blah . . .
 
Used to have a pretty comprehensive battery monitor on this
machine.
Would read serial number, mfr, cycle count, original capacity,
present capacity and dynamic charge/ discharge numbers.
Disappeared somehow. Nothing in Acer downloads, currently.
 
Any suggestions?

looks correct, sure you didn't fat-finger it?

that's definitely wrong, shouldn't have the preceding slash
