This reminds me of the XP fiasco moving from service packs. Hardware needs to be unified so Microsoft can get it right. I suppose it's because of the vast amount of hardware they need to 'support'.
Apple doesn't have that much hardware really compared to what Microsoft has to deal with.
Why don't they just bring the classic start menu back! Microsoft is rubbish!

Yet again an update breaks my audio and messes with other stuff that it shouldn't. This is an absolute farce.
Not sure exactly which update it was but i had to reinstall my nvidia drivers (windows is set to not mess with device drivers but obviously something else broke it)
I think I'm going to have to customise a pi hole for home to prevent all Microsoft updates full stop because I'm going nuts and swearing at the computer each time I allow it to update.
Waiting 15-45 mins on startup on your laptop when you have serious problems to fix at work is infuriating too. I'm looking at a new personal laptop and may have to go Windows 7 and Linux dual boot.

Some reports of when that ****** update is un-installed, it takes your Windows back to day 1.

Sigh another crutch rather than address the actual problem - as I said before they will just increasingly special case fixes probably causing new issues.

You got to be kidding me! Install/un-install/Install/Un-Install... I hope systems don't get in a loop!

It's that time of the month again. Ensure your backups and restore points are up to date.
You don't need to backup every month for Patch Tuesday or everytime when an update released from Windows Update and also you really don't need to create restore points. Because Windows Update always created restore points first before installed updates for 19 years now since Windows Me the first OS to feature system restore.
My post was intended to be a little ironic, given the state of Windows Updates these days.You don't need to backup every month for Patch Tuesday or everytime when an update released from Windows Update and also you really don't need to create restore points.

I would still backup anyway and ensure the restore points are there regardless.
I've blocked updates for now but is anyone else having issues with mysterious changes to random screen res and refresh rates? I tried installing newer drivers. Strangely this is only happening on the living room PC that's connected to my amp.
