My computer keeps telling me that a new version of it is available and asks if I want to install it now or later.  I've always told it later.  But the computer persists in nagging me about it.  What is dash lane and should I tell the computer yes?
Always move forward. Never look back.

Dashlane is a robust password manager with additional room for your various IDs, credit cards and other payment methods, receipts, and notes. It comes with an auto-fill feature for online forms to which you can add different addresses, phone numbers, and other personal information you're tired of typing repeatedly.

....try clearing your temp file, and cookies.....sounds like a Nuisance app.

My computer already knows how to Autofill.  But if I delete my cookies won't I be telling my computer to delete all the weird pass words that I made up for different places?

I don't believe that my cookies are doing any harm so I'll tell dashline to go screw itself.  If it's telling me that it's been updated it must have come installed on New Faithful.  If the reminders become a PITA I'll go look for it and delete the program.

I think you'll be doing a wise thing.
