Windows 10: Who at Microsoft is in charge of Patching and Updates, because they should be F-ING FIRED!...

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4517389/windows-10-update-kb4517389

Why the HELL does it say "No known issues" when there are HUNDREDS of posts, articles, tweets, and complaints discussing how this update virtually breaks the entire OS. Hell even a MSFT employee "@Paulsey..." admitted the issue on 10/11:

So if this is a known issue, 1. why isn't the documentation updated to reflect that and 2. why is it still able to be downloaded and installed after realizing the issues. And what's worse; they appear to lock threads discussing this issue!! Why?????????


I have an office of 30 people all on 1903, Azure AD Join and they keep getting this update - for two weeks I have been forced to disable auto updates entirely; uninstall both corrupted KBs and even have had to completely reimage several machines.


How the hell is this update still live? It breaks your login, it breaks your start menu, it breaks EVERYTHING!!!!!!! WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN FIXED I DEMAND AN ANSWER!!! I am beyond frustrated because the whole organization blames IT for this issue when it's microsoft's own gross incompetence.


Seriously F--ING HIRE A QA DEPARTMENT! YOUR CONSUMERS ARE NOT A QA DEPARTMENT!!!!!!

Microsoft to charge for Updates

You need to find a new class, m'kay?

Microsoft ALREADY charges for support calls. They will NEVER charge for a security update.. they'll be sued by nearly every corporation on the planet.

 

Microsoft to charge for Updates

Yea, I don't think microsoft would add this nail.. and charge you for security updates. If anything they are gearing there product around the way apple does OSX. I can see them moving to that model. Do away with a new OS every 3 years and start charging for incremental updates. Instead of charging $300+ up front for a new version of Windows.. Do like Apple, and charge around $100(not actual.. I've not own a new apple OSX machine in awhile) for an update. It sounds good on paper and it would be good for people that buy OEM machines, but for us it won't be as friendly adding as much hardware and reformating as often as we do with our machines.

I see this as Microsoft just fishing to see there customers reaction.

 

Microsoft to charge for Updates

So, it has been revealed to me in class that Microsoft is in the process of switching to a business model where they will make us pay a monthly fee for Windows and Microsoft Products updates. Supposedly it is ~$10 / month for Micorosoft's programming failures and alpha tests of bug patches they call updates. If this happens and they force you to pay for it, bye bye Windows.
