Why did Windows ever do this? And why do people still use it?
>>
>>54513018
They practically have a monopoly and never needed to learn how good user interaction works as they can literally do whatever the fuck they want. The worst thing that can happen to them is that users complain a bit and wait a few months longer until they accidentally upgrade. Microsoft doesn't really give a shit. Or at least not as much as a regular company should.
>>
>>54513018
Good thing. These so called "professional" gaymen should get punished. Faggots play games and earn shitton of money because of complete utter retards are "donating for a good cause".

1)Windows 7 is old, the system will only reiceve some security updates and nothing more.

2)There an update that fixes that, for free

3)Microsoft established this update as a recommended update, because a number of reasons

4)Users MUST enable an option to install recommended updates automatically

5)Users gets updated to the new version of Windows according to the Windows Update settings

There is not a single problem with this. But you know, you can't fix stupidity.

there is literally a setting to disable automatic rebooting

ahahahahaha
Do you seriously cant into computer settings, anon?
You open up the control panel, you look up your problem on the internet, fix it. It takes 5minutes and sometimes 6minutes. Oh wait I guess solving basic PC problems is too hard for you. I bet you need home visiting Mac Geniuses to solve your basic problems.
>>
>>54513938
I actually use OS X ;)
>>
>>54514374
I use exclusively win 7, they ask, while you are installing, if you want to turn updates on or not.
Win 10 likes to turn them on automatically, and sometimes, turn them on once they are off, even with minor security updates.

Automatic updates should be enabled by default. If they weren't most users would never update and we'd have huge numbers of unpatched vulnerabilities. If you know that you need them disabled or deferred, that is an option. It's not Microsoft's fault that a user chooses not to enable that option.

jesus fuck... do I have to completely stall the operating system from function to do this?

like, log out of my microsoft account, completely disable windows updates, and risk going without security and feature updates? total BS

If Witcher 3 ever gets a Vulkan/Linux port I think I will legitimately never use Windows Ever again
>>
>>54514423
or that the default setting is automatic reboot for no fucking reason
>>
>>54514414
I use 7 too. Its okay.
>>
>>54514608
the reason is people would never update otherwise and Microsoft wants to avoid another Windows XP scenario. Better to annoy a few people occasionally than let them run unpatched. Those users can change their settings if it's so important to never reboot
>>
>>54513190
Nice bait.
>>
>>54513018
I bet you he got a notification that the system was going to reboot if he did nothing - and then it rebooted.

Just like every version of Windows ever.
>>
>>54514423
they assume you want their shit just instead of assuming you don't what it wich is actually more logically;
>want windows 10 it's not auto : just get it manually (no problems)
>dont want windows 10 it's not auto : don't get it (no problems)
>want windows 10 it's auto : just get it (no problems)
>dont want windows 10 it's auto : get it anyway (fucking reinstalling windows 7 with possible loss of data)

no one with a brain will actually defend this
>>
>>54514193
To be fair, cs:go runs on a 12 year old engine, that is a viable reason for criticism.
