The future of MS Windows
Grognard:
they're pushing it harder than a coke dealer on a slow day.
AND they're using 'security' patches to further the WinX blasphemy.

--- Quote ---No, they're more subtle than that. They have 'update now' windows appear where the only two options that appear are 'Update Now' or 'Download Now and Update Later'. You can cancel the update by just closing the windows using the Red-X button in the top right corner but most end users don't have that level of familiarity with the Windows UI. This leads your average end user to think that Microsoft is giving them no choice but to upgrade, hence the grumbles.

I'm getting this popup almost daily now. I'll probably go ahead and do the update at the end of May, I just don't want to have to migrate all my files over to one of my external drives. Yes, I know the update isn't supposed to mess with your files and whatnot, but it's best to not trust stuff like that when changing your OS.
Grognard:
I recently installed and HIGHLY RECOMMEND this app:
GWX Control Panel
takes care of the G-D windows popups.
cesium133:
Microsoft says they're going to stop in July. We'll see...
Grognard:
let's hold our breath and lemme sell you a bridge I have in Brooklyn.
