Windows 10 update
|
|
I don't want this shit and have avoided it so far, but now it is showing an automatic update in the next hour.
I have been able to fuck this off and delay it for 5 days, so does anyone know an easy fix beyond the vague long wided dogshit that windows have offered?
I can't find this Computer Configuration bollocks...

Last windows PC I ever buy.

I turned my back on the laptop for 5 minutes today and Windows 10 started installing.
In fairness it doesn't look too bad although some stuff on my desktop is missing and the whole tile thing is so shit if you're using a mouse

Ended up having it sneak onto my laptop and now it tells me it cant find the vast majority of emails I have in various folders.
When I look on my phone they are there.

I used GWX control panel:

to get rid of this horror (my ancient printer doesn't have windows 10 or Linux drivers - thanks Epson).
Works a treat

Install Ubuntu (can be done ALONGSIDE, not instead of Windows), so you can try them both out.
I dumped windows yonks ago in favour of Ubuntu and it does all I need to use my PC on a daily basis.
As a complete bottle-job though, I still have windows available as a virtual machine for when I have to run some of the proprietary microsoft shit that won't port over.
For day-to-day use, all other shit goes through virus free Ubuntu.

I updated to W10 it was a nightmare, losing internet connection constantly, crashing and Sky Go would not work amongst other things. I reverted to 8.1 which was also a nightmare but got there in the end. My machine now refers all up dates to me and I just uncheck the W10 enabler which is listed by someone else below.
And yes it does update without your permission so beware!

I was sceptical about upgrading to W10 but it's OK once you ajust it to how you want it and works OK.
All my old programs worked OK even some stuff I still use from the 1990s.
Seems to have some minor bugs which I expect will be sorted in time.

To stop win 10 download a wee program called never10
We still get a reminder screen- can't get away completely but it doesn't download.
Cheers!

I "upgraded" a few months ago and have heaps of problems. It's fucking dogshit quite frankly. My old laptops with Linux on them run much better.

I'm just waiting for the campaign that if you don't update to 10, Win 7/8 will get worse because you're racist.

They have finally fucked off the pressure to update to 10, after a women in Seattle won a lawsuit for an unauthorised update.

Oh and thanks for all comments. I might upgrade my 8.1 machine but I'm not touching my win 7 lappy.

Something changed without me doing anything and it automatically set for a scheduled upgrade.
I didn't notice the cancel upgrade option at first so managed only to delay it.
Seems they are getting pushy with the upgrade though....

Upgraded overnight. Seems to be working okay, but has pissed with some bookmarks/favourites. Which is hugely annoying.
Need to also sort out "security" settings. Don't want the plod thinking I go on WHO!

I got it on the grounds it will be supported for longer than W7 will be, but I still prefer 7.

I have a five year old Dell laptop with 7 on it. I keep knocking back the 10 Option and after what Lomas has experienced I will not "upgrade".
