In April of 2014 Microsoft is dropping support of Windows XP. This is of a concern to business as many are upgrading machines to newer Windows Operating Systems. We have several Windows machines in our Family History Center, is there a stated direction from the church on what local units should be t...

Thank you very much. Really good information and we appreciate the response. This is definitely worth a read by those facing similar questions.

Our Stake is reorganizing our Family History Centers, we have 4 FHCs. We have a couple of questions. 1) Is there a requirement for the Stake Family History Center Director or the Stake Indexing Director to be Melchizedek Priesthood Holders.
