After they f*cked up mobile version I stopped caring. This should die already or it should be taken over by someone who actually cares eg. Open Office ---> Libre Office

Re:Microsoft Issues Windows 10 Upgrade Warning

The reason I disable Windows updates is because it eats up A LOT of computing power. When you notice that few minutes after turning on your laptop fans are working like crazy for 30, 40 minutes, you know there is something wrong. It's better to just remember to update your system once a month and manually turn on and off the update option. But now you can't even do that. The moment I hear fans are working like crazy I know that Windows somehow overwrought my setting and the 'updates' are running in the background.
Cheers!

Please try it. Go to Computer Management/Services and Applications/Services and then stop and disable Windows Updates. It's a matter of days before it will be back and running again.
My next machine is going to be Apple.

Does anyone else noticed that when you disable "Windows Update" (I'm using Windows 10) few days later this thing is "Running" again? If your laptop's fan is working like crazy without any apparent reason, go to Computer Management and disable the "Windows Update" option. Few days later, week tops, this will be back on... Previously after I disabled that option, it stayed like that until I...
