Any idea how to keep 8.1 and not get Linux?
>>
>>54233672
Literally fuck windows off your pc.You may think /g/ is just some outdated linux circle jerk,but there's good reason's for switching to linux distros. The main one being real security, microsoft did make a pact with the devils that seek to control us.
>>
>>54233689
After winshit 10 installs, look for an option called Revert back to windows 8.1 in the settings. Look for it on google if you can't find it.

microsoft is upgrading users without their permission. If i didnt pay atention yesterday, today i would had windows 10..
>>
>>54233672
>randomly
You meant to say you left automatic updates on, you stupid fuck.
>>
This happened to my friends.

But I had the W10 update thingie deleted and turned off automatic updates.

I stopped updating my win7 after SP1 and haven't gotten a single win10 pop up
Also I don't keep enough free disk space for them to download an entire OS without me noticing check and m8 Bill

Win the new windows 10 settings look for
Update & Security
Recovery
It should be in there
Do not power off the pc because it wont boot
>>
First for
CUCCKED
AGAIN
WINCUCCK
>>
>>54233672
unplugging the power supply should stop it.
>>
>>54234793
dont listen to this anon
it will brick your PC
>>
>>54234796
but it will stop it from updating. will it not?
>>
>>54234800
It will brick your PC because half a windows 10 and half a windows 8.1 install will not work
>>
>>54234805
but it will stop the update
>>
>>54234796
>>54234805
you wont be able to boot into windows but it wont brick your pc.
>>
>>54234812
It will stop the update
when booting up again it will retry windows 10 tho
and your win8.1 backup might not even be complete so you cant revert back later in settings
>>
>>54234836
but i was right it stops it from updating
>>
>>54233672
Just don't agree to the terms and conditions.

That said, if you're already on 8/8.1, you're already getting spied on. Unless you're on 7, there's no real reason not to either upgrade or switch your OS to something that isn't Windows.
>>
>>54234846
So does throwing your laptop into a bath tub full of water.

Doesn't mean it's an advisable course of action.
>>
>>54234825
But it's not going to have Windows 10 on it.
>>
>>54234863
you dont know what bricking means do you?

It's too late now.
Embrace the botnet, or install Gentoo.

You aren't, so long as you are careful about which updates you install.

Also, I ditched 7 when the update notification started popping up (I wasn't careful about which updates I installed).

Install ME

Honestly get that shit off your pc and install a Linux distribution. If you need to play games you can still use a vm with gpu passthrough, there is no reason to use the botnet.

Ik ben een normiefag, waarom zou ik Linux nemen over OSX of Windows?
>>
>>54235458
Het is geen eens zo lastig als je de goeie distro kiest. Als je arch neemt is het wel lastig ja maar ga gewoon voor elementary os of ubuntu ofso. Alles gaat vanzelf en is echt niet zo moeilijk
