All part of the plan to kill off Win10.
I’m seeing the pending updates (I’m on Win Pro 10). I wonder if I should go ahead with all of the updates and have this one fail.
Once Win 10 no longer is receiving updates after October 2025, my main computer for *any* Internet accessing will be with Linux. Good chance I move in that direction before the end of 2024.
So they need a update to fixt the update?.................
UPDATE: Replacing OLD BUGS with NEW BUGS................
Win10 is very annoying. I have it set not to update automatically but it updates anyway. All my open files get closed - one with this weeks update didn’t auto-save (even though I have autosave set every 1 minute). Then when I opened up Excel, opened file, it gave me a list of “recent files” from March of 2023. They corrupted the recent files history forcing me to dig through folders to find the files I wanted.
It’s not as bad as say Win95 was, but it’s really a nuisance at times. There is a reason I leave my computer on at times and do not want it to automatically update but they don’t seem to care. And fwiw, one one of my machines it absolutely will not update Chrome Browser no matter what I do.
“Win10 is very annoying.”
Win11 is worse
Same here I am on Win 10 Pro.
Dunno - if I had to do it over I would just wait because I don’t really have to load these updates right away &
I don’t have time to go through a bunch of detailed work under the hood. Maybe they will sort it out with a new update but I am not sure given the space they need.
BitLocker sucks
This is why you delay your patch installs.
I have spent a lot of time trying to turn Win 11 into Win 10. "Changed" does not mean "better."
And yet Microsoft won’t let you decide whether to install the update or not because they know SO much better.
It’s better to be able to decide when to install.
You can “pause” updates but that’s not the same.
Same here.
Only reason I stay with it is for gaming on my big computer.
My lesser machine is switching over to Linux for basic functions.
Well, I just performed the updates, and it appears this security update went through. I thought it might because when I checked the drive partitions for C:, the smallest recovery partition was already set up for 1 GB, enough for this update. It is possible the problem installing this update may be isolated to the Windows 10 Home version. Check you drive partitions.

That, or stay with Windows 7.
Good luck. I loved Win 7 until it got so slow. Cleared the cache and did every dirty trick in the book and eventually it just slows down to a crawl. I got tired of fighting it. Linux is just as fast as the day it was installed. no hassles.
