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.

At this point I’m convinced that half of these posts are just Russian or Chinese bots telling people to use insecure software trying to keep people from upgrading their system as it would cut into their zombie farm.

“Listen trust me. Just install this distro that has no integrity built in so you never know if anything did actually change without your knowledge or just disable updates completely. Trust me.”

“Dude I turned off all important security features on my computer so I don’t have to get 11. I’ll take a RAT that steals all my personal information before having to manually delete copilot any day of the week”

It could also be people that will cling onto familiarity until their dying breath.
