WinBlows (in its current incarnation) is just a really, really bad choice to
run Point-of-Sale software on.

I think that's really the bottom line. It's not suitable for any purpose
other than watching Netflix and/or Hulu.

That's all we use it for.

Everything else is either Linux or usable (earlier) versions of Windows.


I should add that the defenders of WinBlows 10 (e.g., on these newsgroups)
are getting to be almost Trumpian in nature. The lengths they are willing
to go to, and the contortions they are willing to twist themselves into, in
order to defend it, have gone from comic to downright tragic as of late.


There are a couple buttons you can click, to control updates.

One provides a delay of seven days.

By arranging that button press, with respect
to your work week, you might just arrange to
not be pestered during the work week.

Do I like this idea ? Of users having no control ?
Of course not.

But, there's a button.

Since this article was last updated before 1903, you might
search around for another page which is more up-to-date.

This should be a bit better. The same guy owns both sites.
