In November 2014, a second attempt at an error series was made with the sucessful uploading of ''Windows XP Errors'' Episode 1. After that, TVK782 posted on Skype that if he could find a Microsoft Sam online voice on his Chromebook, ''Windows XP Errors'' would then be cancelled in favor of the other series. There was no online MS Sam voice at that time. On December 10, 2014, in a skype group, series developer [[User:AceOfSpadesProduc100 TV|AceOfSpadesProduc100]] suggested that TheVideoKid782 could use IVONA voices to create a TTS series. In the next comment in the group, TheVideoKid782 approved the concept, and produced the series premiere. The episode was uploaded a few minutes later.

In November 2019, there were several talks of TheVideoKid782 getting a laptop. The laptop will most likely either be a second Chromebook (which the first 2 seasons and original Season 3 workings were on), or a Windows 10 laptop.
  −
  −
If the laptop ends up being a Windows laptop, it will finally fulfill the Windows usage that was proposed at the original February 14, 2014 announcement of GoAnimate Windows Errors.
  −
  −
As of Thanksgiving 2019,the talks have fallen through, and there is a chance the Windows move got to after Season 3, and the main series ending. The move, however, was originally still planned to mark a software change for specials ordered, however, it is unlikely this will happen immediately as of now.
      
On May 4, 2020, a Chromebook, originally shared, was brought to the house. However, production has functioned differently from how it did in 2016-17, namely with editing moving from Powtoon to Kinemaster.
