So Glad !

7 updating has always been smooth, definite and easy for me.

This is the #1 reason I've stayed aeay from it.
Odd, on 3 machines I've only had one hickup and it worked the 2nd time.
Creators update worked fine on all 3.

Actually it's not odd, I'm sure the success rate world wide is rather
high. We just hear the complaints here.

XP is needed for older apps. I have XP running in a virtual box for 42
of these and it works great.

I think you need 7 to run 64 bit apps.

Why would you expect anyone to waste their time trying to help someone like
you who 'requests' info if you are too lazy or stubborn to search for that
info yourself on the Internet?

Stupid comment. I'm using a 10 newsgroup to get aggitional info on 10.

You can control the updates for Win10, if you get off your do-nothing ass
and learn how to do it yourself.

And again, why should I have to bother. 7's got updating when I want
it to, and no adverts ever which I heard is another 10 surprise.

10 has nothing significant to offer over 7 and apparently lots to
avoid.

I like to keep my systems updated and Win7 updates were getting harder
and harder to apply.

When I installed Win10 the process became a lot smoother.



Once they had me hooked though, the update process started bogging
down again.


Oh well


I moved to Linux and the process is even smoother (no reboots).



I have been using Linux since about the year 2000

It became my main OS maybe 8 years ago

Then why do you have WinXP SP2 instead of just plain old WinXP?

Hell, even some automobiles have computer updates.
Do what you want, but please don't try to give bad advice to others.

You are so stupid that you decided to copy my style of writing. Is that

Nothing wrong with 10 if you stop reading all the BS. Most of the
"spying" can be handled when installing the thing and 3rd party
programs to handle the rest.

I'd rather not have to start messing with 3rd party stuff

Always big complaints after each new OS version.I was happy to get rid
of the blue screens going from XP to 7 and 8, 10 are even better with
crashes.

10's been around for over a year. 'bout time the bugs were worked out

The only thing about 10 I detest is the problems they bring with
'upgrades'. Just had two machines that weren't right. A repair
reinstall cured them just like with 7.

I upgraded to 10 from 8.1 just as soon as I could (on 4 machines) and
have not had a single problem with updates/upgrades.

Just sayin'!

But you like to be here because Linux is so dull and boring. Is this
not so? If not then why the **** are you here? If you want to do
Weinstein on SteveGG's cock then contact him via WindowsXP newsgroup.


I'm hear stupid so I keep up with other things in life. I do run
Windows 10 from time to time and someone here might just have some good
info, so I read. Linux is not boring, maybe you're to shallow to
expand your horizons, but I like Linux. I believe I'm more productive
there.

Please clean up your act. I know that's a waste of my typing as I've
got you killfiled but....

One of the lesser win-10 group contributors, GoofGuy has to wait
frustratingly long spells for easy questions to come up. Trolling makes
his day. Funny thing is, he thinks employers are going to discover him
online, like what they see, and want him. ROFL!

Not quite sure you're on topic, mate!

I'll still stay with 7. I had a glitch with updating that lasted over
a year until fixed, and nothing bad occured.
