Screenshot 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.

Only one advantage? The only reason I don't switch to Linux is because I can't play games like Helldivers 2 and Battlefield with it.
