Does Microsoft really want a reputation of producing vast amounts of Landfill crud unnecessarily?
Not sure how you intend to avoid GWXI "KB2952664" this time around, not as though you can switch off updates completely in Windows 10.
Let's not forget the abuse, Microsoft forced that update on folk running Windows 7, at least 8 times.
I still haven't forgotten those endless "Just checking for updates" in Windows 7 either.
With hindsight, it seems pretty clear Microsoft deliberately broke Windows 7 (made it appear broken in terms of receiving updates) to force Windows 10 on users. I think it's pretty clear they'll attempt to do the same with the move to Windows 11.
The amount of landfill crud this will generate (all for Microsoft forcing TPM 2.0/Direct 12 and WDDM 2.0 Graphics cards) is off the scale, makes Amazon's recent monthly landfill revelation look like a drop in the ocean, by comparison.
It's time we all made a stand and jumped off this landfill crud Microsoft sausage factory conveyor belt.
