Trick me once and expect me to go along with the next set of problems? Classic Shell already has fixed my broken windows. No automatic updates for me. That is how I got my last virus! I trust windows as far as I could throw obama.

I trust windows as far as I could throw obama.

Which one?

This seems to be MS’s new way of marketing , release crap , upgrade a short while later to keep the world from noticing that there’s nothing new that you’re offering (or have offered in over a decade) ... create a steady noise about your product even if the noise is bad ...

Vista (windows 6.0) ==> Windows 7 (windows 6.1)
Windows 8 ==> windows 8.1

“No automatic updates for me. “

I hear you, just like everything from Win98 forward the updates either break something in your applications or at minimum each one slows down the pc until it takes longer to load than it took me to get through puberty.

It happened with XP on 3 of my PCs eventually taking 5 minutes before you could do anything (mainly from BING (the worse turd in the Windows pile of crap)).

My Win 7 machine was fantastic until the updates eventually began to slow up boot and I am tired of the PC behaving differently every time I boot it after an update.

My Win 8 machine has Classic Shell but subsequent Win 8 updates now prevent it from defaulting to the normal desktop at boot. I now have to click on the metro desktop tile crap.

And what is with multiple thousands of Registry updates. The registry sucks as is without so many entries happening in seconds.
