chirakawa Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 Another reason for me to not do automatic updates. Everybody wanna hear the truth, but everybody tell a lie.

chuckbear Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 We discontinues automatic updates a long time ago when they started screwing up computers. We now let the updates have a week or so to report problems before we decide ourselves which to update. Microsoft is also including updates that track your computer use, including key loggers, in obscure updates for Windows 7 and 8. These are forced updates in Windows 10. We have blocked them from our Windows 7. They are KB3075249 KB3077715KB3078667KB3080149KB3083324KB3082627 See this Forbe's article, http://tinyurl.com/pugpsg5 Chuck and Susan 1999 Fleetwood Bounder 34 Triton V10 on Ford Chassis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
