Posted February 4, 20186 yr FPCH Admin So, for the past week, I have been denying Windows updates. This morning, I got a prompt to restart my computer to begin the update. I denied it again and shortly after, I left the computer room. I came back upstairs a few minutes later and discovered it had restarted and begun the update on it's own. :( After five reboots and 2 1/2 hours, it finally completed. Turns out it was the Fall Creators Update. I have never had a Windows update take this long or reboot so many times. It was very frustrating. ~I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.~~~Robert McCloskey~~
February 4, 20186 yr FPCH Admin I have seen over an hour updates before. I have also had Windows decide to update even when I tell it not to. Since I fully retired it is nice not having to deal with Windows any longer. Off Topic Forum - Unlike the Rest
February 4, 20186 yr Author FPCH Admin I have to admit, it ticked me off when I saw it updating after I denied it. Everyone seems to be getting into some version of Linux lately and it has me thinking about trying it too. I will always keep a Windows machine though, just so that I am still able to help people with issues. Honestly, it's the only reason why I updated one computer to Windows 10. ~I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.~~~Robert McCloskey~~
February 4, 20186 yr FPCH Admin I keep one VM with Windows 10. I fire it up once in a while to upgrade it. In fact I should upgrade it today. I haven't fired it up in a month so I'm sure it will take the rest of the day to upgrade. Off Topic Forum - Unlike the Rest
February 4, 20186 yr FPCH Admin As I thought. A number of updates available. I'll start them now and they should be done after the super bowl. Off Topic Forum - Unlike the Rest

February 4, 20186 yr FPCH Admin I hope it’s the Eagles. I couldn’t take another year with Patriots winning. Off Topic Forum - Unlike the Rest

February 5, 20186 yr FPCH Staff It has been that long since I updated my ten system maybe some day I may just get around t doing it. For right now I will lust stick to using Ununtu. "Confucius could give answer to that... unfortunately Confucius not here at moment."
