Female to male, that doesn't make you any less of a normal person [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] don't worry.

I also hate M$ and have spammed a bunch of threads ever since the pirating of the netbios code from unix/BSD which lead to my transition and the general hatred of this community for me.

You have to check after every update that you do. Some updates will re-enable this "feature"

You really should leave automatic updates on.

That said, it was kind of crappy of MS to make Windows 10 a recommended update.

Mine updated as well a few weeks ago, but it gave me the option of rolling it back to windows 8 and I did.

Why?
You can have it inform you immediately upon downloading the update and you can choose whether or not to have that update be applied during the next night.

Everyone I've talked to has had nothing but horror stories about windows 10. A guy I work with updated his laptop and now it's unusable as a result.

@nilbog thanks bud I'll check that out. Looks like it managed to restore back to 7 at least. Was scared it was gonna take a dump and tell me I'm fucked
Proud windows 7 user here.

Fortunately I was smart enough to shut down auto updates for the first time shortly after I saw the Windows 10 spam a few months ago,

Hasn't bothered me since. Do not plan to turn updates on again after seeing this nasty tactic.
