What on Earth are you all turning on to do this? I’m on a fully-licensed copy of 8.1 Pro and don’t have any hidden folders anywhere.

The article says “it tries to install every time the computer is booted.” Really?! I’ve been updating and rebooting my machine every month since Windows 10 came out, and I’ve yet to ever be prompted to do this.

I’m really having a hard time believing all the press about this. These might be singular, one-off incidents. I doubt this is the norm, or we’d be hearing massive outcry from everyone on social media across the world.

I guess you exemplify the advantages of clean living and a pure and charitable nature.
