Windows 10: Capitalism doesn't always work out so well for the greater good.

Take a look at this thread.

It is fascinating, revealing, and instructive.


https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-networking/how-do-you-turn-off-internet-auto-play-in-windows/0c3cc2b1-acee-40a4-82de-816625a8e888


Like a lot of folks, someone wanted to stop undesired internet video autoplay.

The "Microsoft Agent" says let us help you. And the first thing he/she says you need to do is use the "then failing" Cortana!

When the inquirer says the "Fix" doesn't work, the Microsoft Agent says the problem is in an Adobe add on.


But as the thread commenter indicates, in the case of internet delivered video, autoplay is controlled by the delivering party.....not the consuming party.


That is not an accident. Advertisers wanted it that way and Microsoft accommodated them.


Having been involved in and observed the software industry from long before when Bill Gates started Microsoft AND long before the internet proliferation, I can assure you with complete certainty that Microsoft and all the rest of the industry is NOT your friend, NOT interested in helping you, and NOT concerned with what YOU want your (actually their) software to do.

Hello,

Double Tap to wake doesn`t work at my Lumia 620. I have all on in settings but still doesn`t work. I`m pretty sure that in update AMBER or BLACK this function works properly. But after DENIM update doesn`t. Maybe you are planning some update for this future
?

Thanks
