I have a WIndows 10 PC and have never seen any of these things (ads, popups, etc)..
Windows Update is on, but why would I not want that? It's on all my other systems and devices.
Hyperbole serves no one...
- freehunter 10y agoI've seen a lot of articles about Microsoft pushing ads on the lock screen and have come to realize they mean the wallpapers that have the Bing logo at the bottom or a nice looking picture from the app store. People are also mad that there's a link in the file explorer to try out OneDrive (funny enough I'm staring at an iCloud Drive link on my Mac's file explorer right now and no one seems to care) and articles started to blow up about how to remove it. So now people are convinced that it's a problem and that they have to get rid of it or Microsoft wins. Also updating your software is a bad thing, because this is 1994 and no one ever attacks Internet-facing computer systems.
