I found that the quickest way to do this is: Open up your Start Menu Type this in the quick search/launcher (see image for reference): notepad c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts Hit Ctrl+Shift+Enter to launch [...]

I’m now connected with JairoSolutions, Inc. I’ve been here for 7 months now. It’s still a consulting company, roughly the same as the other companies I’ve been in.
