This is a dangerous mindset, because it shows just how badly Microsoft has squandered trust.
Microsoft used to be the "trust us with your workflow" company. The one that would go out of the way to make sure your badly coded DOS games still worked.
They've gone so far in the other direction-- blowing up user settings and workflows to push whatever KPI-of-the-week they're chasing-- that the trust is gone. People are afraid to accept even necessary security fixes because they no longer trust Microsoft not to break their experience.
Remember when the upgrade script started showing a friendly "all your files are right where you left them?" That's freaking TABLE STAKES. Your customers expect that. You shouldn't have to reassure them of that. It's like saying "our hamburgers don't give you genital warts."
So you have like three molecules of experience and you are generalizing??
I am on win 10 n do every single update except upgrading to 11 and I m pretty satisfied
With all due respect, that’s not enough time to be saying anything about it and especially not enough to be telling people not to install updates when that’s the most common way people have their computers breached.
I don’t own a Windows device (and haven’t since Win98) and have had dislikes about it since the early 90s, but I’ve also supported it professionally and would never recommend someone avoid updates. Buy a Mac, perhaps, but until you’re ready to switch you should stay current.
I've used it for work reasons as well, I am not saying it sucks, it's just the troubles I had with updates. They seemed to do nothing in my case. I have always been on Linux desktop since 2015 and now on a Mac. I am not a fan of OSX, I just use mac for the awesome hardware it has.
Dogshit advice. Windows updates include security patches. What may happen is this screen where you need to click no/remind me later, and it will not change anything.
I don't use windows at all but it is just giant pit of advertisements targeted towards the very basic computer users
