Oy vey.................Win 10................

We have a Win 8 laptop, that would not run LMS. The only way we could
ever get it to work was to uninstall it, and re-install it, every time
the silly thing powered down. IOW, whenever Microsoft decided it needed
to do an update. Which it would do, even though we told it we were not
interested in their updates.

So, we thought we were clever, and unplugged the LAN connection, so that
it would never connect to the 'Net. IOW, it ran on an internal router,
that was in-house only. None of our routers had their 802.11 turned on.
(You really expected a bunch of grouchy old RF engineers use that 2.4
GHz noise pollution, did you?)

About 6 months later, we noticed LMS did not work. Found that WinDoze
somehow found a way to update itself, and reboot the computer! No idea
how it found some other wireless network, but someone who knows far
about this stuff than we do said it is possible.

That was they day we permanently retired that machine. (OK, we could
have probably just yanked out the wireless card. Where is the fun in
that?) I can only imagine how much worse 10 is.
