An update came out last night that causes internet explorer to crash and also causes boot loops when you go to control panel and uninstall..and since these updates are on auto update you automatically get them if you want them or not

You realize the people griping, since it isn’t go-live day, are running the technical preview, right?

Anyway, “Fortunately, an Nvidia spokesperson had some positive news to share. “We have a fix for this issue in our next driver coming next week for the launch of Windows 10.”

As I said, don't buy or upgrade to Windows 10 until Microsoft issues Service Pack 1. That will allow all its customers to find the flaws in Windows 10.

Unless you’ve got the same info MS has, its impossible to intelligently decide whether to update or not.

Do a web search using the string: “Windows 10 turn off auto update” - you’ll find several articles on how to turn off auto-updates for Windows Update. Remember to back up your registry before altering it!

Automatic updates should always be OPTIONAL.

WinDoze is still WinDoze and still made by Micro$loth.
So WinDoze 10 Is still the same as always. Problems.

I have three monitors on an Nvidia card and they are working fine, but I am seeing a lot of the flickering.

They just cant drive people away from them faster, and then they go ahead and figure out a way to do it.

Windows 10 Automatic Updates Start Causing Problems

Of course it does! The more control you steal from the user, the more problems he will have.

I honestly wonder if the top Microsoft management has bought a huge amount of stock in Apple and Linux platforms.
