I feel that I have better (more useful) things to do with my cognitive surplus than let it be consumed by fixing incessant MS Win10 updates that are nearly always broken in some regard. Once or twice is OK, sure, but it's now gone beyond the pale.

My "revenge" at the moment is that I have taken full control over the update process and won't let it get beyond Version 1607 (OS Build 14393.2214) - or at least, not until the update path ahead is clear and becomes less risky.

Would they still be Microsoft then?

Time MS allowed users control over updates again - won't happen but that is why I have gone back to Windows 7 on all my systems!!

Microsoft is definitely having Update problems. The picture is not a video. It is used because there weren't any other pictures there to use. I don't post embedded videos, other than Youtubes. If you want to watch it, use the article link.

That yellow font colour should be illegal.

If it's illegal, people will want it. They want what they can't have. What color would you suggest? Not blue, it's not a link.

The latest update "Update to Windows 10, versions 1507, 1511, 1607, 1703, 1709, and 1803 for update reliability" seems to be an update manager. Microsoft must be having some severe update problems if they need something like this.
