  1. Security Updates Bug / Bugging


    Windows has been bugging me to update my security settings for the next update, Creator. I have been passing them by, but the last time I updated them in the control panel.

    This AM they bugged me again -- and -- took hold of the machine. This time the message could not be gotten around. They wanted me to update, taking on the tone "Me WANT --- NOW. Me WANT -- RIGHT NOW.

    So I updated them again. But I could not compete. Why?

    Because I run my 22 inch monitor in portrait mode with 150% enlargement. Apparently the button needing clicking was outside of my screen area and I could not slide the mandatory update window to get to it.

    Finally I started from a cold boot and the forced update screen finally went away.

    Is there some way to kill or complete these "Me want right now" demands without resorting to a cold boot?

    Will they now repeat the loop or have I successfully complied?

    :)

    Yes, it's pie in the sky.

    Four points:

    1. There's no such thing a s bug-free software. New bugs are found all the time in *all* software but the trivial.

    2. Even if it were bug-free, new security threats come along all the time, and updates are required to protect you from them.

    3. Update are also made for new features and improvements, not just for bug fixes of better security.

    4. Microsoft says this will be the last version of Windows. So updating will go on forever. That presumably means that rather than releasing a new version, they will update this one. That's what they say today, but who knows what they will say tomorrow.

    Security Updates Bug / Bugging

    They bugged me about that too, finally I clicked to update my settings. They showed 5 settings I already had in place, so I just left them that way. Then I set a time for them to start their upload of the Creator's update, did it at night but left the computer on. Everything went fine.

    Can't really answer your specific question, but I agree with you that they are VERY pushy for you to comply. Initially I thought that the Creator's update was optional (and I had no interest in it).....but soon realized that it was mandatory in Windows 10.
