    Microsoft Flight Simulator Frozen on "Update Success [MANDATORY UPDATE] Mandatory updates...


    Anyone else having this issue?

    Not even getting to game launch screen.

    Task Manager indicates that MFS CPU usage is around 35% and power usage "Very High"

    I chatted to a Microsoft agent but they could only suggest that it is due to high demand on launch day.

    :)

    Microsoft to make Windows 10 updates mandatory

    It seems and feels Windows 10 will be a tremendous success with mandatory, optional or even no updates... The average user does not care about this so much, and they are what!? 90% of their user base!?

    Just my opinion based on what I have seen so far. *Roll Eyes Microsoft Flight Simulator Frozen on "Update Success [MANDATORY UPDATE] Mandatory updates... :rolleyes:

    Will I upgrade/change to Windows 10? *Confused Microsoft Flight Simulator Frozen on "Update Success [MANDATORY UPDATE] Mandatory updates... :confused: If you know me, you know the answer.

    Microsoft to make Windows 10 updates mandatory

    I can see this forced updating to become a major clusterfuck of driver/update issues. I mean, it's not like drivers or updates have EVER caused any problems...

    Drivers on Windows Update were always shit, especially the graphic ones and I've had really stupid problems with monitor drivers as well (it fucked up my entire color profile) and the wireless driver also fucked up my laptop twice. And the Silverlight, I don't install that crap for a reason. I don't need it. So why would I want a potential security concern software on my system if I dont' need it!?

    I really don't understand what's Microsoft trying to achieve here. Deliver security updates as mandatory thing, absolutely. But leave drivers and other optional crap out of my fucking way.

    Microsoft to make Windows 10 updates mandatory

    Microsoft makes updates mandatory in W10 for everyone except for enterprise users. This is good in that it keeps one's Windows fully updated at all times, but I think there are a few downsides to forcing users to have the latest updates.

    - How will they handle updates and reboots to minimise disruption to workflow? For gamers, imagine some fat updates installing in the middle of an intense online game. It would completely wreck it with tanking framerates, lagging and potential errors, as well as bombing out of the game. Presumably Microsoft have thought of this and will avoid such scenarios.

    - Bandwidth limits. Many people don't have high bandwidth internet access and on top of that they may not have an unlimited usage quota. Being forced to download the updates would cause problems, especially with using up allocated bandwidth and either being shut off, throttled or having to pay more for it.

    - It gives Microsoft an easy way to force updates which are only in their own interests and not in those of the user's. The one I can think of is the product activation anti-tampering update 971033 which many people avoided since it was very intrusive, checking up on an installation every month. A later version stopped this behaviour after a public outcry. However, such outcries might be ineffective if one has to accept every update. This last point is the biggest reason in my book to be against such forced updates.

    What do you all think? Check out the article and let me know.
