Re: [MBZ] Take That, Microsoft

The legal department might have wanted to appeal, Don, but the ad department might have nixed it since it would have given MS even more bad publicity. There has supposedly been a lot of concern about programs in Win10 that can collect all sorts of personal and business data, and that has hurt

Re: [MBZ] Take That, Microsoft

If you want to get rid of the Win10 upgrade popup, look at your past, loaded updates. One of them is not an update, but rather the popup which will launch the update if you click on it. I don't remember the number, but you can "uninstall" that update and it goes away. If you want to load Win10,

Yes, it's easier to win in small claims court which is why she went there. Yes, I had problems with one of my Dell Vostros, but it was not MS's fault. My PC needed a BIOS upgrade. This story is really full of shallow BS that only a small claims court would allow. Her computer was unusable,
