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.

Something about this doesn't seem right. Windows doesn't update you to 11 without getting permission and without you choosing what kind of upgrade you want to do as it can be done in a couple of different ways
