Win 10 worse than a blasted, pushy door to door salesman
It's stalking me .. I feel hunted (or haunted).
I don't want it as I'm happy with my Win 7.
So for weeks I've been ignoring these boxes that pop up saying my free , magnificent, not to be missed gobbling up the world global giant Win 10 is scheduled for it's download. I've just closed the boxes. Ignored them.
And been lulled into a false sense of security.
Last night about 10.30 I wandered away from my laptop to make a cuppa.
I came back to find a countdown box ticking away with 10 minutes 58 seconds to go....... download imminent.
Argh ..
after a thirty second panicked abdab I switched off my computer, blew into a brown paper bag to calm down and went to bed.
A little nervously, with nails gnawed to my elbows I switched it on today.
As soon as it loaded, as normal, .. another box popped up and launched in to its countdown.
This time I remained calm, cool and collected . I read the box properly... before I panicked.
I selected reschedule . which took me to another page with a drop box offering a delay of some hours . .. and then saw tucked at the bottom of the box a link that said Cancel.
I hit it. Whoopee!
Next I was asked again if I'd like to Cancel or Proceed.
I selected Cancel again and the box vanished.
My blood pressure dropped and I went off for some nibbles.
I came back to find another box had popped up asking if I'd like to download now or later tonight.
I'm piggin sick of all this. I'm considering suing Microsoft for unnecessary harassment and emotional and mental distress.
Why can't they damn well just accept I don't want Win 10.
I almost put this in the grumble section .. I feel so much better for my gripe.
I shall now have a wander in webland and then disconnect from my network where Win 10 is lurking in shadows waiting to pounce.
Seriously .. is anyone else getting this bother and how have they avoided it
I'm just plain thick and non-techno.
