The additional security mitigations of Windows 10 make it significantly more secure than a fully patched Windows 7 installation. Indeed. It's tough to compromise a system if you can't even boot it. [1] Still, at least your data is safe. It's not as if Microsoft would ever roll out an update that just deleted your files. Oh, no, wait, they did that too. [2] You could just turn off the updates and... Ah, sorry, it looks like you can't block that one unless you're on a different edition of Windows that isn't available to you. Still, at least all that juicy telemetry you're sending back will help Microsoft to protect the Enterprise customers you're beta testing for, so it's not all bad. Just all bad for you, apparently. I'll tell you what. Why not play a nice game of Candy Crush on your business laptop, where a link has already been added for your convenience, while you wait an indeterminate amount of time for your main workstation to become available again so you can restart the five-day data processing job you just interrupted?
