Patches, I’m depending on you, son!....................
Will there be another patch for this patch?
...and we know THIS one is good -— how?
That is one of the reasons I avoided Win10 and its forced updates. MS has a history of releasing updates that create more problems than they fix.
With my Win7 desktop, even though I have ‘do not update’ checked, I still periodically get a ‘critical update’. I can tell because my PC goes bonkers and I usually have to run a Restore Point.
A few weeks ago, I bought a Win10 Tablet just to start learning my way around Win10. Win10 seems an inevitability. I find more websites, for example, balking at my old XP/Win7 browsers, etc.
Yesterday, I noticed the Win10 tablet light blinking, so I figured an update was going on. After about an hour, I noticed the screensaver was stalled. After another hour, the screensaver still stalled, I unplugged the tablet and held the on-off switch. After a couple of tries, it finally restarted and went to an ‘update in progress’ screen. A few minutes later, it started up — so I guess my turning it off and on didn’t mess anything up. I am still not familiar enough with Win10 to find out what this new update did, because it flashed a brief message that ‘new features were being installed.’
I still hate Win10. Every time I play around with the Win10 tablet, I find Win10 frustrating. Please please please God let my Win7 desktop and laptop last a few more years.
The Win10 in my laptop has gone completely stupid. I get a message that it needs to update, because this version isn’t going to get updates after April, so I run the update, and it fails to load.
It has done this no fewer than 9 times now. I suppose I have to bite the bullet and take it in.
I should never have let Win10 into the machine in the first place...
Microsoft is suffering from delusions of competency.
Microsoft is getting a bad reputation...
Companies are now more concerned with real-time updates than producing solid code that works so customers can use the software. Microsoft, and everyone else, has become not worth the costs.
I have turned off updates for both of my Windows 7 PCs and am wondering if it is safe to keep updates permanently off . Don’t want to experience the blue screen of death horror I went through in January ever again . Any advice would be appreciated . A computer dummy in Japan ...
