Yes. This is the reason it is so hard to disable WU now. YOU are one of those reasons.
> forced approach only worked on the people who had auto-update enabled
Also I want to hear what kind of magic should they used to do that on people with WU disabled.
- robertlagrant 5y agoAlso the fact that WU breaks things. Might be worth considering that.
- causi 5y agoI would've been one of those people, if I'd ever had a security breach. At this point I've been saved so much time and hassle not putting up with Microsoft's nonsense I could spend a month dealing with a stolen identity and I'd still come out on top. Of course I'm not one of the numpties that runs untrusted JS in my browser or installs rando programs.

You, as the other people in this thread, are forgetting/don't think what 90% of the Windows userbase struggle to distinguish between a click and a double click. Personally I'm not fond on how and where MS directs Windows for the last 8 years, but it's becames totally understandable when you take the sheer number (and ignorance/stupidity) of the userbase.
- vetinari 5y agoThere's a reason WHY people disabled WU. Microsoft might consider that, before going with heavy-handed approach.
