Geez, Microsoft. As someone who has used Windows continuously for over 30 years, this is not a happy place to be.
Oh Noes! not KB534244! We’re doomed!
Warning: New Windows 10 Update Bug Is Deleting User Data And Preventing Login -- Microsoft Acknowledges Serious Windows 10 Update BugThat's about a different update: KB4532693
I’m sticking with Windows 7 until they pry it from my cold dead hands.
One of these is probably why I’ve been having to enter my password twice to boot up on my company laptop.
So, if you’ve downloaded the update but haven’t installed yet, what should you do?
One more reason I shut off my Windows Update long before they stopped supporting my Windows 7. This seems to be a regular occurrence of theirs with Windows 10.
Again...
Not the first time Microsoft released a security update that made PCs less secure.
Since this unit has been off and on “Sleep” mode since the update and not yet restarted I uninstalled it. Not risking a crash on restart. Did I mention Windows sucks paddy water? As soon as the warranty expires and I resolve an issue I’ll dual boot 19.3 Linux Mint.
Is this any way to run a business?
Here is my run in with Windows 10 update when I updated to version 1909

I was just thinking about something like this:
The Free Software Foundation sent Microsoft a hard drive for Valentine’s Day — along with a petition calling for the release of the source code for Windows 7 (which is no longer supported by Microsoft):
It’s as easy as copying the source code, giving it a license notice, and mailing it back to us. As the author of the most popular free software license in the world, we’re ready to give them all of the help we can. All they have to do is ask.
We want them to show exactly how much love they have for the “open source” software they mention in their advertising. If they really do love free software — and we’re willing to give them the benefit of the doubt — they have the opportunity to show it to the world. We hope they’re not just capitalizing on the free software development model in the most superficial and exploitative way possible: by using it as a marketing tool to fool us into thinking that they care about our freedom.
Together, we’ve stood up for our principles. They can reject us, or ignore us, but what they cannot do is stop us. We’ll go on campaigning, until all of us are free.
Hoping the people who work on MS software aren’t the ones who will create “artificial intelligence” programs that will determine our destiny.
If they keep trying, maybe one day they’ll get it right. Problem is, they won’t know.
