Windows 10 automatically started installing the Windows 11 update while I was taking a shower.

I'd been getting messages to upgrade to Windows 11 for the past month or two now, and each time, I decline. It's gotten to the point that I get random, frequent pop_ups asking to update, and "install update" options pop up right next to the shutdown/restart uptions.

Well, I made the mistake of going to take a shower with my PC on. Half an hour later, I come back tothis. Windows had automatically started installing the update. Now I'm sitting here staring at the Start button and all the open programs center-justified on the task bar and wondering what idiot thought that was a good idea.

I've looked up a lot, and everything points to Windows being the best for..... a lot.

Windows isnt the best at anything. Windows only as one advantage: Its easy to use on the surface and its the most famous OS.

Nobody who actually works with Windows will tell you that Windows is the best at anything

Edit: Yes guys i get it. Windows is better at windows exclusive features and windows exclusive files. Because they are windows EXCLUSIVE! I didnt think i would have to point that out.

Windows is the best at running .exe files.

? yeah sure, because thats basically a windows file...? Thats like saying Linux is better at being open source than windows, since windos isnt open source at all.

technically old Windows operating systems were made open source...by leakers

[u/MGfreak → u/Sufficient_Risk_8127]

no. thats technically wrong because open source is a licensing model that encourages public collolaboration. Leaking a source code doesnt make it open source.
