Re: Can I Refuse to Update My Windows PC/Laptop?
Thanks for the info Mart, you have certainly made me think differently about updates.
Since I purchased this laptop with Windows 10 I've had very little trouble with it. I love the way it boots up quickly, and I've been able to view footage from my dash cam, something that I was unable to do with my old netbook running windows 7, although the netbook itself was probably more to blame that Windows 7.
I wasn't looking forward to downloading the recent update which talked about re installing an updated and newer version of Windows 10. I had visions of files and programmes disappearing and never been seen again....It took over thirty minutes to perform and I expected a totally new look, and having to waste time bringing it back to my personal preferences.
Surprisingly, nothing has changed except now I don't get pestered by 'One Drive' which started to interfere every time I transferred photos from my camera. I've always preferred using the cameras own software and viewing and editing in microsoft office picture manager. Call me old fashioned....
So if microsoft want to bung a few updates my way occasionally so be it....
