Bork Tuesday, Any Problems Yet?

+1

What a joke Microsoft turned out to be, it's a shame.

 

I just keep rebuilding my desktop lol.

 

Yeah, unfortunately the joke's on us.

 

Yeah ... iMac time!

 

Yep, I always have that possibility in the back of my mind for the future...

 

Well, four years to save up lol!

 

I guess as long as this laptop is still kicking, I'll keep it... it's 6 years old now. Amazing. Usually my machines die after 4 years of me thrashing them... haha..

 

Thanks JR for the info. Into the hidden file it goes with the rest of the Win 10 nagware updates.

 

A billion $ corp can't supply a description of a KB until hours AFTER release. BS shenanigans!

 

Hours or ........ days!

It's not good enough. I always install every Windows Update , so don't need to know what the update fixes. But, it is still nice to know.

 

Well one of these two will stop GWX.

GWX Control Panel: http://ultimateoutsider.com/downloads/

GWX Stopper from Greatis Software: http://greatis.com/blog/what-is-gwx-gwx-exe

They both work like a charm and installed them on many PC's that don't want Win 10.

hi
i mean , if i perform a clean windows 7 sp1 install will the windows 7 update module download and install update to upgrade to w10 ?
or ALL these update will be optional
thanks

 

i meant that it's great that you can choose if you want to upgrade to w10 !

 

Let me check my Windows 8.1 tablet that I don't want to upgrade due to space issues. Never mind, they're optional for me. And it's not Patch Tuesday, so no updates for Windows 10 laptop.

All I can say right now is Android's February security update flashed and rooted smoothly. And no issues yet with iOS (not bothered to jailbreak anymore) or OS X updates last month. Chromebook is up-to-date.

Haven't checked crouton or my VirtualBox virtual machines yet.

 

Win 7 x64 bit running great here and long may it do so, I won't be moving on to 10 anytime soon.
Both KB2952664 and KB3135445 sent to the sin bin yet again.

 

hi
are the they marked optional ?
thanks

 

Hi Mantra,
Yes, both optional.

 

hi Gordon
thanks
now at least i can re-enable the windows update in windows 7

Win7/8.1 patches KB 3135449 and 3135445 could be useful, but ignore 2952664, 2977759, 2976978 @infoworld WoW http://www.infoworld.com/article/3029642/microsoft-windows/kb-3135449-and-3135445-could-be-useful-but-ignore-the-rest-of-microsofts-batch.html…

I installed it and have found no problems, some people say it is subjectively faster. It can be uninstalled if the need arises. The download links are still active.

 

I did not get KB3123862 whereas others say they did. it is for W7 and 8.1. Anyone here get this one?

The update adds capabilities to some computers that lets users easily learn about Windows 10 or start an upgrade to Windows 10.
