I'm fucking done with Microsft
They forced the Windows 10 update through to my Window 7 machine. I woke my computer up from sleep and the little win10 icon was in the lower right. Couldn't get rid of it so rebooted. It is currently updating to Windows 10. This all happened with Windows update set to never update. Grrrr.

Oh wait, too late now. Gotta reload. And Linux is worthless if you game. Real games, not the thrown together crap in the repositories.

Re: I'm fucking done with Microsft
Just reinstall Winblows if you want and turn OFF automatic updates, that should do the trick. If not, hack the registry and block windows update.

This is why you should disable automatic updating!

I'm never surprised by stupid forced updates because I have to manually choose to install them myself.

Better yet, put windows update in your hosts file and set it to 127.0.0.1

That will make windows update impossible to update because the hosts file will redirect it to your local machine.

There have been a LOT of reports of MS using devious techniques to make folks inadvertently load X on their computers...many, many complaints.
I was quite happy with XP, was dragged kicking and screaming into 7 due to no XP support....don't much want to change OS again.

Open up a command prompt and run as administrator.

type this command:

cd \windows\system32\drivers\etc

type edit hosts

Add windowsupdate in the hosts file and tab over and enter 127.0.0.7

Click on File, select save.

Reboot.

Windows update now will be impossible to execute because you have told the hosts file to point that domain to 127.0.0.1 which is your local machine. It will timeout and not connect to windows update.

To access this, open the Start menu and select Settings. Click the “Update & security” icon and select “Recovery.” You should see a “Go back to Windows 7” or “Go back to Windows 8.1” option. Click the Get started button to get rid of your Windows 10 install and restore your previous Windows install.

You can still run linux and steam. Steam games are supported on linux now. Also, you can even run a virtual machine on linux and install windows on a virtual machine. Try that.

also after running the nowin10.bat, do a check for windows update and "hide" all the updates listed in the nowin10.bat so they won;t be installed again.
