Re: Windows 10 Pro automatic update

Re: Windows 10 Pro automatic update

The automatic updates messed up my systems so frequently that I ended up disabling the Windows Updates service on them. If/when I decide to apply service, I'll do it when I want. Imo Microsoft's decision to force Win10 reboots may end up making it less safe because people stop getting
