Windows 10: You started updating my computer to version 11 without my knowledge or consent. I want it...

I own my computer and I bought it with Windows 10. You have no right to invade it other than for what I have granted permission. For more than a year I've been rejecting the repetitive notices Windows 11 is ready to download. I do NOT want to change operating systems. Last night, without asking or notifying me windows 11 downloaded and wants to install. I can't stop it unless I pause updates to 10. If my computer goes bad, or I lose files, it will be up to you to fix it. You people are arrogant beyond description - worse than spam you invade my machine under what was a trusted name

That would be a valid point if the inflated version numbers didn't break some plug-ins.

 

Futuremark 3DMark 11 Updated to v1.0.3

Futuremark today released an update for its 3DMark 11 benchmark suite that's built to put today's and tomorrow's DirectX 11 GPUs through their paces. Although this is a relatively minor update, Futuremark recommended that all existing users update to this version for reliability. It packs the following changes:

• Bullet physics library updated to version 2.79 to improve compatibility with future CPUs and GPUs.
• For most systems containing multiple GPUs, for example integrated graphics and an additional discrete graphics card, the user can now select the GPU to be tested using a new option on the Help tab.
• Improved error handling and user messages for the most common compatibility issues.
• SystemInfo component updated to version 4.5 for improved compatibility with current and future hardware.
• New "More" tab with information about other Futuremark products and services.

Firefox 11 Goes Beta

They did it for two reasons:
1- because both IE and Chrome numbers were suggestive of more advanced software; and
2- most importantly, Mozilla sought to reduce the deployment cycle of software updates.

Their next step is to blur the lines of version numbers with a mechanism of persistent updates.

Personally I couldn't care less. I suggest that if anyone gets too caught up with version numbers they need to re-evaluate their priorities.
