I literally only have windows for games now. The OS is pushing my patience to the point where I'm considering giving up half my steam library and sticking to MacOS / Linux.
A couple nights ago my PC woke up in the middle of the night and started an update. I had to get up and force shut it down. I don't think there's anything Microsoft can do to reverse the damage now.
- frik 9y agoI bought a PlayStation 4 and couldn't be happier, and I keep Win7 around for old games. The "new Microsoft" sucks big time, and they drive the company against the wall - Win10/WinPhone10/Xbone crash.
- zlynx 9y agoSo you don't want it to update while you're using it. And you don't want it to update when you're not using it. When, exactly, is it OK for it to update?
- stagger87 9y agoIf the OS is stable for me I shouldn't need to update.
- kyriakos 9y agoStable in your eyes doesn't mean there's no underlying security issues that need fixing.
- have_faith 9y agoMy machine is used for occasional gaming and nothing else. I would like to update it when I please. If that means it's out of date for a while I don't care, I'll happily click through multiple big red warnings confirming I want this.
