Microsoft Creative – where the hell did this come from? This is Microsoft telling you what programs you should be using.Ĭommon programs that are reinstalled every time Microsoft installs an updateĬortana – useless on a computer without a microphone, also invasive When Microsoft installs updates, it also installs additional programs or APPS regardless of whether you’ve deleted them in the past. When you install updates, it should not install additional applications automatically, and it sure as hell shouldn’t install programs that you have previously deleted or uninstalled. Updates Should not Install Additional Programs or (APPS) It should not be BULK on for every program. Yes, you want your email to access your contacts, but you do you really want every program to have access to your computer’s camera or microphone.

Let other programs access other programs – You need to set this per program.

Location – let your computer broadcast its location.

Things that are turned on every time Microsoft updates your computer: When they are “on”, your computer is wide open like an unguarded bank vault with a sign that reads – Come and Get It. This may sound like a good thing, but Microsoft’s security settings are backwards. When Microsoft updates your computer, they turn all of your settings “on”. When you install updates to your computer, they should not change your security or privacy settings.

Updates Should not Change Security Settings Yes, there are good reasons to keep your computer up-to-date, but your updates should be performed on your schedule not a predetermined corporate schedule. This is incredibly invasive, and it’s never convenient. Furthermore, no operating system should tell you when you are going to install updates and force those updates upon you, not even at two in the morning. No operating system should demand that you install updates. You Should Not Be Forced to Install Updates Nevermind the fact that if someone were to hack your MS email password, they also have the password to your computer! Remember the security warning – Use different passwords for every account! This does not need to be part of the O/S. Not only does it allow the O/S to see your email account from the onset, it also downloads your images and other things. When Windows 7 came out, Microsoft started asking you to log into your MS email account in order to gain access to your new computer. This is how Microsoft started their bullshit.

You Should Not Have to Log into Your Email Account to Boot Your Computer No operating system should be as invasive and virus-like as Windows 10. Let me just state up front that what Windows 10 does is NOT normal. If you are like me, you’ve had it with Windows 10 and Microsoft, if you aren’t completely fed up with Windows 10, you’re bumping along and willingly allowing Windows 10 to invade your privacy and control your computer and how you use your computer.

Windows 10 updates suck
