I know clickwrap EULAs have been contentious, but can a EULA for something you didn't even ask for and didn't want in the first place be forced on you against your will?
- ourmandave 11y agoI had the option to not accept the EULA. In that case I was then free to not install Windows 10 despite it "prepping my system for the update" for an hour. I figured any attempt at a roll back at that point would have been worse than just proceeding. =(
- chris_wot 11y agoThat's interesting. If the OS upgrades to Windows 10, does it prompt you to accept a new EULA after upgrading? If so, what does it do if you don't accept the new terms? And how can they ask you to accept terms AFTER upgrading?
- cesarb 11y agoThe comments at https://www.reddit.com/r/windows/comments/49eahx/computer_upgraded_to_windows_10_without_my/ https://www.reddit.com/r/windows/comments/49eahx/computer_up... say that, if you decline the EULA after installing, it rollbacks to the previously installed version.
- chris_wot 11y agoBloody hell. And this rollback appears to be less than reliable. Why not ask for the acceptance and then upgrade? Do we know what data is lost when a rollback occurs?
- nness 11y agoI believe this stuff is contained in the EULA you've already agreed to, not the new EULA.
