I switched my personal machines over to Linux after Microsoft doubled down on forced restarts. Sometimes I keep windows open to resume in the morning, sometimes I want to leave games or projects open and running for long periods of time, and I’ll get around to updates during my own personal maintenance window. When Microsoft started overriding that in increasingly opinionated ways, I made the switch.
The point being, I appreciate having computers around that do what I tell them, instead of having to do what the computer tells me.
- mmis1000 3y agoForce restart is easy to disable on any version of windows (except home). Probably a 2 minutes configuration. I almost think the home version of windows is actually a reduced version of windows. You need at least the pro version to get the normal experience you expect to get from a paid software (while apple don't do that to mac users)
