Adapting to this Windows 10 as I go along. Very challenging, lots of hidden tabs, vaguely titled
tabs, slow, fast, here, there, I suppose computer geeks love this stuff; for me it is a giant headache
of a hide and go seek variety. But we are stuck with it. No doubt, just as I am getting used to it, I
will be forced into Windows 11 and so on.
Does anyone know what this means?

I have never read such impenatrable jibberish in my life.  
After seven hours of repeatedly uploading video clips that erased without warning or predication of any kind,
I tried to load the finished project (phew) onto YouTube and got this insincere babble above. As I click on "next," it takes me to a "free trial"  for some YouTube platform I never wanted or wish to pay for. Is YouTube going to "pay for play?"
Perhaps it is time to find another video platform. On this Vimeo link, very limited and awkward, you click on
the blue happy face which opens the video and you find and click on the right facing arrow.
-uh, never mind the video.It seems that Vimeo swallowed it up, and the web page simply redirects me to
sign up for various plans. I hate being cat fished like this, so absolutely coniving. 7 hours of work down
the drain.

Shame you have to go through that trouble Jeff.
All those ads about computer ease are mostly false.
I took the easy way out.
My cellphone with T-Mobile does the same as a computer.

No idea on the whole windows 10 thing, I'm assuming you've tried googling it, but if not you should try.
YouTube sometimes advertises for their ad free YouTube premium service, but other than that it is completely free to upload. Perhaps just try again, maybe something went wrong? I have never ran into these problems so again, I'm not much help.

YouTube does not have a limit on the number of videos you can upload, and therefore they don't charge. Vimeo, however, does have a limit and once you reach it, you have to either delete some of your previous videos to upload more, or upgrade to their Premium Plans.
That being said, your Windows 10 issues sound a little.....interesting, to say the least. I consider myself fairly proficient with computers, and I to, had to learn a lot about how to navigate through Windows 10, as it was different than Windows 7/8, but I did not have issues with it not collaborating with websites. Are you sure your version is properly installed?
My laptop, which I bought over 2 years ago when Windows 10 first came out, I've been using almost every day and never had those problems. :(

Well, all is not lost, I did find the Vimeo platform with the latest edition of Super Fly 2:
Lock Down in Henley.
As to Youtube, there are 12 different formats to upload a video, and by trial and error I found
that I need to use MP 4, and that somehow it got flicked to another format that my youtube
account did not recognize.
Now it's asking what device, another 12, I want to upload it to, desk top not being one of them,
but again, by trail and error I hope to find my way home. I just now found this edition on
youtube, but somehow it has achieved the title of "Athearn Truck Power." I uploaded the Vimeo
version as it is here, now.
If any good came out of this, I finally solved, or mostly solved, the problem with a Pixel XL phone
that was given to me by a friend who wants me to give up my simple to use (relatively) flip phone.
Not as many buttons to push.
Strangely it never worked, and absolutely everyone I tasked this with said, "get a new phone."
I am learning that all the commands are hidden like layers of an onion, and one has to peel back layer
upon layer, upon layer in hopes of stumbling on what the problem is. Then upon each layer, trial, error,
repeat half a dozen times, go to the next layer.
In this manner, I stumbled upon a tab "USB Device" under settings. One problem USB Device doesn't
always show up on its own, so I have to enter it as a Search item. Having done that, one eventually
gets to an obscure set of on/off tabs, some work, some do not. From there one has to click on
"Data Transfer," or the phone will not communicate to the desk top. Ah, but there is more: each time
the phone is unplugged, it defaults back to a condition of "no data transfer," so each time the phone
is used as a camera, it does take astonishing photos, the whole process has to be repeated from
scratch.
I will probably become more proficient with 10, but it is not pleasant. Good luck to you all, and
enjoy the video, I put a lot of work into it.

Despite the trial and error, it came out great! I can't say I wasn't biting my nails hoping the two trains wouldn't smack each other leaving and entering the crosstrack sections!
Darn, sorry about the dinosaur problem. I gave him some of my lunch earlier. I think that's why he's pestering others for food.

Great video once again, Chops, and love that Tyco Dino at the end.
