Updates download and get applied with no rebooting.
I’ve been gleefuly, joyfully and obnoxiously laughing at all these wondoz problems for the last fifteen years or so. Happily running Linux all that time.
I just LOVE reading these M$/Windoz threads, esp the ones with “help me, Windoz screwed up again” type of problems. Yeah, I’m a techie but most of my problems with Linux are based on something *I* did rather than Linux.
Linux Mint 17 right now, but I just downloaded Mint 19 and will load it on my laptop first to see if I like it. First thing I did with the laptop was shrink the Windoz 8.1 partition and install Linux on it to dual boot. I think I’m gonna just rip the HD out of it and do full Mint 19 install on a new, bigger HD.
And I’ll just keep laughing at the “Windoz screwed me again” threads.
