If you patch your Windows (and yes, I know many of you do not) today's a good day to do it.

My brother had automatic updates on. He got upgraded to Windows 10 without being asked.

Can you select only certain updates?

Last update reset me to auto download and install.

They are trying to take over and cram WIN10 in.

There is a REASON I refuse to ‘upgrade’ a functional operating system in favor of some bug-filled trash Surveillance-OS.

Todays update for Win 7 was scary. Took the better part of an hour, and after a couple of auto re-starts it wouldn’t let me logon to my user account. I then logged on as Administrator and it took me to what looked like Safe mode. I rebooted from there and was finally able to logon normally. Scary. My Win 10 box however hasn’t updated anything today......yet.
