    Well Hell! M$, in their infinite wisdom, decided to Update to Win10 on its own. I never told it to do that! I was very happy with my Win8.1!

    It took almost 4 hours with all of the restarts, etc. And now, I'm on Win10. Wonderful. NOT!!!

    It deleted, on its own, some programs that it determined were not compatible with Win10. WTF!!!

    One of my primary clients uses a version of VMWare that is not compatible with Win10 yet.

    Again, I never gave it permission to update to Win10. But evidently, if you have Updates set to Automatically Install, it will go ahead and Update to Win10 without your permission. What a royal crock!!!

    I can see major litigation coming out of this fiasco from other users such as me.

    6. Updates. The softwareperiodically checks for system and app updates, and downloads and installs them for you. You may obtain updates only from Microsoft or authorized sources, and Microsoft may need to update your system to provide you with those updates.

    That may be but I still don't like it. I kept clearing those dialogue boxes that kept trying to get me to update to Win10. And then, it went ahead and updated to Win10 anyway! And I still say it's a CROCK!!!

    The system seems to be working fine since it has updated to Win10 but again, one of my main clients uses a version of VMWare and Workbooth that doesn't like Win10. That was the main reason I didn't want to update. When I try to log in, it says Win10 is not supported.
