    Is this a bug or is it "nagware"?


    Lately, I've been getting this annoying popup on my desktop computer: I select "No thanks" but I get the same popup EVERY DAY! I hope this is a bug and not an annoying tactic to get me to enable something I don't want. I turned off "News and interests" on my taskbar for a reason. I don't want it. I uninstalled the Weather app that came preinstalled on my computer. I even opened "News and interests" just so I can go into the settings and turn off all Weather notifications. On the taskbar settings for "News and interests" I checked the option to Reduce taskbar updates. And yet... I'm still bein

    Windows 10 Upgrade NAGWARE

    Am not interested in upgrading to Windows 10 - currently am running Windows 7. Have tried the suggested fix to eliminate NAGWARE - has returned. Other than moving to XUBUNTU - a far better and secure OS - any suggestions?

  3. Credential Nagware

    It seems that Windows 10 in more and more nagware, it costs me $ every time it wants me to verify my credentials. Over and over.

    That coerces a mobile phone expense which means this bleeds $ from my account, and I am tired of this nonsense. Windows is activated, what more does MSFT want?

    It also abusive that email accounts all want this **** as well, is MSFT going to pay my phone bill? It's not secure at all, it's simple abusive.

    My advice, cease and desist.
