Re: The gas lighting by this company is becoming utterly unbearable.
They never did this sort of thing in the past. I'm sure many of us have run W10 and earlier on hardware which was technically unsupported - in the knowledge that there might be issues but from experience this was unlikely once it had installed OK.
The difference now is that with this sort of thing there seems to be good reason to suspect that they might intentionalluy break it in the future.
