>>338163661
If you don't pay attention to it it will happen automatically, but it is never implied. It's always down at the toolbar as a advert or something you can do manually.
And it is a collossal fucking dickmove by Microshit to force Win10 on people.
Don't fall for the meme. W10 is good.
And unless you are ISIS you shouldn't worry about the gov spying on you.
And even without W10 they can spy you.
Seriously this board is full of retards.
>>338166498
I want a OS designed for PCs, not tablets. I want a proper start menu, not the atrocious fuckheap that's WIN10 with a bunch of "apps" with oversized icons.
Fuck Win10. Maybe I'll upgrade once DX12 becomes relevant, but until then it can go and fuck itself.
I was just gonna make this thread because my pc just upgraded by itself to w10. It's not bad or anything? Will I still be able to play all my games? Is there any sort of performance issue
I'm pretty dumb with this kind of stuff and I'm pretty annoyed that it just happened but I'm hoping everything will be fine
>>338166712
By now compability is fine.
Perfomance will be better with DX12 but barely any game uses it so you won't notice anything noteworthy.
If you don't mind the tablet style OS then you're fine.
I Windows 10 was benign it wouldn't have installed itself without your express permission.
At this point I can't see any difference between Windows 10 and a browser hijacker or keylogger.
>>338166492
>It's always down at the toolbar
Unless you uninstalled it like everyone who isn't completely retarded did.
I installed Ubuntu.
What do I do now?
>>338166678
win10 has a start menu
dumb cunt faggot at least be informed
Its just a reskinned windows 7
>>338167323
Complain on the internet you have no games. Then install gentoo since Ubuntu is still GNU+Linux botnet
>>338166678
What are you talking about? W10 has a normal start menu. Maybe you are thinking of Windows 8.
I upgraded from Windows 7 and haven't noticed major changes. The minimalistic theme is also neat.
>>338166678
>he fell for the memes
Block updates (or get GWX toolbar) until July 27th and be free or W10.
>>338166678
i'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you know it's a normal start menu with apps on the side. even in that case you can turn them off

I've yet to see any new game requiring DX12 or looking much better with it
Not worth giving the NSA my everything yet
Also it fucks up many older games
>>338163219
People have been saying it has access to your full system telemetry and sends it to Microsoft/the government like it's a new thing, when Windows has been pretty much doing that since 95-99.

I haven't used all the windows versions, only 3.1, 95, 98, XP and 7. All of those were better pirated than bought though, even when you don't add in the considerable price.
I haven't pirated 10 yet but if I'm forced to get it I will pirate, not buy, even if it's $10.

Always do a clean install.
Fucking idiot, no shit it wasn't working properly.
I had to do a load of fuckery to get Windows 10 to work at all after an upgrade.
Nuked it, started again from scratch.
Week later, none of the taskbar functions. All of it refuses to open. Run a clusterfuck of commands including reinstalling every 'app' on the system, and now I can open everything but the startbar remains blank.
I honestly don't even remember having issues like this with even fucking Windows ME. It's a goddamn mess.
>>338170795
Pray tell, where did you tell us in your post that you don't like W10? Where, exactly, in that post, did you make any indication of that sort? Because to me that post looks like it's defending it.
>They've done it before, so what's the harm guys lol
>>338170909
>paranoid about microsoft
That's not why, I have tried both pirated and non-pirated versions of all those I listed except 98. The pirated ones had less issues and never bitched at me.
In one case I rebuilt my computer and just started it up, had to unlock windows with a key that I had to call microsoft to get. I did that with the pirated version too and it just worked.

You need to lurk /g/ more and not believe the memers, W10 is fine and better than W7. Just disable the obvious shit and you won't have to worry about Bill Gates looking at your anime porn.
>>338171331
I had a similar problem with the initial install - nothing which used the print spooler or image acquisition service could open; IE things like Photoshop or MSPaint. Don't even know if I fixed it, was probably one of things I had to wipe it to get rid of.
>>338171365
One thing I will give it credit for is it fixed a lot of vidya stutter-at-high-framerate issues.
And while it lets me use my IGPU alongside my GPU, flux absolutely and utterly rapes the system five ways sideways.
Crap, I don't know if I already have Windows 10 installed. I have the windows 8 features, but I'm afraid that I might've downloaded the files without knowing.
Is there a folder I can look into, or some partition I can see, to tell me if I have windows 10 on my computer?
So, when will people sue? You can't force your product onto people, even if its free.
>>338171116
>Pray tell, where did you tell us in your post that you don't like W10?
In the first post? I didn't. It could have been either way, but you assumed I took the position of defending Windows 10 because I said something you didn't like. Of course, what I've said is an assumption, but that's what you've been doing so far: assuming things that haven't been said.
>>They've done it before, so what's the harm guys lol
I haven't said that at all. I've said that if you think not upgrading will prevent spying then you're a retard. Uninstalling telemetry updates on W7 won't do much in the way for you as it won't do much in the way for you on W10. If Microsoft's not watching, then the government is. That doesn't spying any less unacceptable, but what the hell can you do, really?
But please, tell me how I'm defending W10 and Microsoft's spying again.

A lot of the IPs are hardcoded, and disregard the hosts file. Using wireshark, you can verify it calls back even with everything disabled, though it will send less.

You're acting as if it was obvious that you don't care about W10 (your entire second post), while now admitting that it was vague. Did you get dropped as a kid? Try to stay consistent, it's only 3 posts for fucks sake.

It takes data from you wether you like it or not.
It gives that data to third parties.
It cannot be uninstalled, and you never get a say in it.
It also wants you to install at all costs.
Windows 10 is literal spyware. It has all the characteristics of one.
Is it any way to trick a pirated copy of W7 to install it? Stupid question I know
>tfw broke my Windows 8.1 so hard it can't update or use SmartScreen FIlter at all

"Microshaft has been spying on you since Vista, or hell, probably before that."
I'll admit, this post is rather vague. However, it no way implies my stance on the subject or how I feel about the OS. All it implies is that upgrading/not upgrading will not change the fact that Microsoft will continue to spy on you. There was little room left for interpretation about those two subjects. So, why did you draw assumptions about those two things in the first place? Why make arguments about things that aren't presented?
>>338172542
>hot chick that sctually has a dick

>>338171308
It installed it without my permission while I was asleep. I woke up to Windows 10.
It then asked me to agree to its terms of service. I told it to go fuck itself and clicked deny, so it had no choice but to shut down and roll back to the original OS (which was still a pain in the ass to sit through).
>>338172265
HAH
NO
IT INSTALLS ANYWAYThere is a setting somewhere in that Win10 advert where you can disable it, but I wouldn't trust it anyway.

Because it's a useless statement to begin with that added nothing to the conversation, and just makes it look like you're defending MS because they did it before.
What are you even trying to argue here, still? Your point is basically "give up", so why don't you follow your own advice and give up on trying to convince me that you don't eat shit for breakfast?
>>338163219
The fact that the update can even happen automatically is a massive dick move and should tell you that W10 isn't "fine" at all since they wouldn't be so secretive and forceful about the update if they didn't have ulterior motives.
Heck, the fact that you cannot prevent W10 from calling home is downright insane, even if you block it at the router (since they can just change the IP).
>>338171993

Are you guys afraid that Microsoft will be able to see that you jack it to futa porn or someshit?
>>338173474
Exactly. It's like the thirsty beta at the bar who's trying way too hard to get the girl. It's desperate and you clearly know something is wrong.
Back when it was just a free update, it could at least be rationalized as "oh, I guess MS is trying to extend an olive branch to all the people that felt burned by windows 8". But nope, clearly it's a ruse to get you to use their datamining botnet.

People are already willingly doing that.

>Because it's a useless statement to begin with that added nothing to the conversation
Fair enough.
>and just makes it look like you're defending MS because they did it before.
There's no room in that statement to interpret an opinion. It is simply that: a statement, a fact. Nowhere did I imply I was for or against Microsoft's spying (I'm not, for the record) in that simple, one sentence statement. So why did you even bother to interpret it in that way in the first place?
>>338173624
The only thing they would find is my fetish for Asian clown porn, and honestly, that shits no secret.
So how can you cockblock the update so it never updates by itself?
When you install it, eventually you'll get a prompt for Express or a Custom install. Choose the custom and you can turn off all the datamining features.

Everytime
So... I'm curious; I don't like shit spying on me either, but what the fuck are you people trying to hide? Are you all high rank hackers or some shit? Do you distribute illegal products via the internet(you're an fucking idiot if true)? Are you on the run(using internet while on the run. LMAO) from the gov?
>Accepting spyware
There's is no other option besides switching OS. Blocking half of the spyware is only blocking half of the spyware. So..... get to it. I highly doubt you'll switch OS, though, because you're lazy. Waiting until your outdated copy of windows self-destructs isn't going to stop the spyware in Win10.

This line of argument is retarded. "your privacy may already be somewhat infringed so you might as well open the floodgates and give everything else up too!" It doesn't make any sense.
And an operating system spying on you is much worse than phonecalls or facebook or any of that. A phonetap can only capture what I speak about. Facebook can only capture what I openly put out there on facebook. google can only get what I give them through search results and gmail. But with an operating system? Literally EVERYTHING is available, if they so choose.

I haven't got any forced commercials because I opted out of them while installing.
Either way, Win10 is ok because you can make it work more or less like 7 but I don't think it brings anything worthwhile to the table other than DX12.

It literally phones home to MS constantly and you cannot block it out, even if you configure your router.
You're so gullible and naive it would be cute if you were sdtill 5 years old, but you're not. So all it does is make you come off as a massive idiot.
The fact that they're so secretive and forceful about W10 doesn't set off ANY alarm bells in your mind?

>I can play rance series and some FOTM RPGMaker games

>>338174787
Fight = Switching OS. Meaning there was never a "struggle".
You can't fight windows 10, you can only avoid its absolute by switching OS. Otherwise you are fighting a losing battle that will end with you submitting to Microsoft's cock. Yeah, go ahead and take it in smooth bby.
You logic is completely invalid until 100% of this spyware can be avoided.

Using your bandwidth to install Windows 10 to other computers in your area is also kind of a bad thing you know. Especially with people with data caps.
I get the feeling most of these technical issues being posted are just made up by pirates to act like theres still reasons not to upgrade. Why don't you dirty pirates just have a weak PC that you use for your scandalous behavior and then transfer the files over?

I don't think so shills.
This thread brings up a good question I've been needing an answer to.
Has anyone had any problems since they upgraded to Win10 relating to privacy? Have your pirated games been deleted, have you been asked to stop torrenting, can't use TOR anymore? Anything like that? I remember I used a blocking application to block the government spying my internet, and then comcast throttled my fucking internet so I'm wondering if it happens even worse?
>>338174464

Nearly all of this W10 scandal shis is made up by pirates living in the past. The whole thing is overblown because the system simply acknowledges what programs you have installed which has been the case since W7 at least. The computer is not deleting/guessing content you pirate because something like that would be prone to mistake and disastrous for a company.
You could maybe argue that they send data on what programs you have on your PC to their servers (for advertising), but do you guys honestly think Microsoft has a big room full of people going through the files of everyone who owns W10 PCs to see what fucking games they had and how they acquired them?
>>338173035
Why would someone developing their game want to limit the amount of people that can play their game? Is there some advantage to forcing people to use Windows 10 that your game couldn't achieve with any other?
>>338176487

Excuse me? I've been repairing all manner of for over 15 years bud. Windows 10 is actual literal spyware, and a small step toward the ideas of skynet.
The reason we must be against spying is the same reason we still need guns. Because we do not yet live in a utopia where we won't get utterly fucked over by special interests and those with power. We need these things for the principle of the matter, even if it comes at a cost. Every step and inch of freedom we give up as a people makes it harder and harder to stop it when shit hits the fan. It used to be that when politicians fucked with people enough, people simply executed them.
If you're part of the people who have been indoctrinated, pro-political correctness, anti-gun and anti-privacy, you are deliberately being part of the cancer that turns citizens into slaves.
Our future is unknown, every single inch of power and privacy taken from us, regardless of the justification, is a step toward ball and chain existence. There exist over 7,000 public relation companies in the USA alone, more than enough money and payed people to affect what we think on the internet.

We know everything about you regardless of what OS you use.
We know when you walk past a retail store and will send targeted ads to your phone to direct you to sales in the store.
We have an individual profile for you that tracks every purchase you make (online or in person) and we sell that to retailers.
We've ranked you on a threat matrix based on your online activities, and if you ranked high enough your file was sold to a government agency.
Once things like google glass and virtual reality become more widespread we will be able to constantly assault you with advertisements to the point where you can never hide from us.
It's too late.

We know what people buy, and suggest they buy more. That's been true since the fucking 50's and we didn't need tech to do it, it's just easier now.
Even though this is my job and I'm pretty high up in my company, I still think privacy should be allowed, i don't get some sick twisted pleasure from selling someone something

Nope sorry I live in east europe.
Here we still sell pirated windows burned to DVDs.

Same here in beaner land but most just use piratebay so it's decaying

Wrong.
We're going to live in a meme dystopia in the future, where gaudy memes will plaster billboards and advertisements will be 95% memes. Traditional advertising will be replaced entirely by cheap and simple memes, relying on their insipid audience to advertise for them via viral resharing and reblogging.
Society will revert into a minimalist, memetic state (its already begun, you can tell by the forced minimalism on logos) where flat colors and IMPACT text are all you need to be considered artistic.

While that may be true, I don't need to get to the executive suites if I already have a 6 figure salary and all the data off their computers

An acquaintance of mine is having me fix their windows 10 laptop. It's an absolute nightmare to find anything. Granted, they don't have much computer knowledge, but my 7 year old Ubuntu laptop boots faster. Also, Microsoft will be releasing an update this summer that will have 10/12 of the application slots on the start menu default to ads. Windows 10 is not easier or more convenient to use, it's all marketing

microsoft toolkit 2.5
only works with certain versions like enterprise or whatever
Do it if you have w8, check some videos if you have w7.
I didn't care and upgraded. As if my information is even worth some money, I'm cheap as fuck.
I doubt your information is good either.

Actually, it was usually the other way around.
