    The pc is oriented to simplicity
    You will notice on the right hand side the "software update" icon.
    Which allows you to update installed softwares + OS in a very simple way compared to a Windows OS.
    It is set to notify only LTS updates.
    Another feature is Chrome, because my daughter loves to use this browser.
    Chrome is also set up to be used to create as few problems as possible.
    For example, compared to my Edge, 2 Insecure Chiper Suites are enabled.
    Third party cookies are enabled but both data and cookies are deleted when the browser is closed.

    P.S. The pc has been transferred today (it had to be transferred Saturday) to my daughter's house.

    It's Gis Weather. https://sourceforge.net/projects/gis-weather/

    Depending on your system you can just download the .deb file and install it using gdebi. When you come to configure it if all the features do not display on the larger default try the 'Block Additional info' setting as per the screenshot. The smaller presets such as 'Compact day' usually work without issue. If by chance you end up with an ugly watch face being displayed use the 'Block Sunrise' option to get rid of it.
