The thing is, I am now almost diffident when it comes to ‘touching’ anything I still have stored on USB! What is the risk here? Put another way: when a USB file is open and being ‘worked on’ is this taking place actually ‘on/in’ the computer or do elements of the file remain on the USB? I ask, because somebody advised that problems can develop as a result of the link between the two.
