I'm tired of Microsoft forcing their unwanted "features" on me. All new features should have a check box you can check or uncheck depending if you want it or not.

[Mannard]

I hate how Windows update likes to replace video drivers (AMD Adrenaline driver) with a Microsoft-certified one.. very annoying

[TheForce_Productions]

Nevertheless MS keep forcing users to migrate to Linux.

[Digmen]

And I hate the way Microrsoft changes my keyboard settings and my browser etc when I upgrade.
Its my computer leave it alone!

[davehenderson]

Is there a way to get rid of Copilot, it's garbage bloatware.

[ToneWalt]

Holy smoke, I'm gonna write this down in my diary because as you say, this is a rare occurrence.

[leondevries]

I blocked all new versions and will stay on W11 22H2, thanks to your Group Policy Tweak a few weeks ago !

[tonywise]

...."continuous innovations".. Microsoft are masters of gobbledegook.

Well Brian mate out here in Australia I have not seen anything to do with the 23H2 update and it seems to me that we are really so behind the rest of the world and I cannot see for the life of me why Microsoft are so slow in providing these sorts of updates out here. Having said that my machines which are running 22H2 work perfectly well even the main desktop with the unsupported hardware though I suspect that 23h2 will block that machine from running Windows 11 Pro. It is becoming increasingly tedious since Windows 7 seeing the different versions of the OS and the constant updates which I don't seem to remember happening with Windows 7.

Interesting. I can think of several reasons why they would do such a thing, but listening to end users is not on the list. They may say it was from user feedback, but if Microsoft really did listen to user feedback (especially from the tech community) Windows would not be in as a bad state as it is today.

[SoulPoetryandOtherWorks]

Fabulous. Now to change the upgrade requirements for Windows 11 to allow older hardware to continue to function into the future and reduce the impending e-waste problem.

[itstheweirdguy]

Updates. The software periodically checks for system and app updates, and downloads and installs them for you. You may obtain updates only from Microsoft or authorized sources, and Microsoft may need to update your system to provide you with those updates. By accepting this agreement, you agree to receive these types of automatic updates without any additional notice.

[MichaelandCathy]

I used your recipe for blocking the upgrade from Win10 to Win11 and it worked perfectly, I did do the upgrade this past weekend on 2 laptops and so far( fingers crossed) it’s working fine. And it is the 23H2 version, running great so far.

I dont care much for OS features, i just want the performance for gamin.

Gimme paint and bluray movies player and notepad, and i can do lots of stuff.

[lokelaufeyson]

im not worried over what microsoft does, microsoft cant touch my computer. Microsoft is blocked.

[peterschmidt]

I think people are jack with microsofts position of - you use our OS, therefore we'll do what we like. I know its in their EULA but still doesn't make it right. Especially when of late they've been rolling out some woeful updates. You can't even get around it on a metered connection. I can only imagine the nightmare IT have with businesses using it.

[anth]

It should be ILLEGAL to force any update. With Microsoft's prevalence of f-ing up peoples PC's and / or breaking apps with their dodgy updates. This f-ing mentality of if you use a Windows OS Microsoft "owns" your computer, has to stop. It ALWAYS forces updates. I have enabled the "pause for 7 days' and when you shutdown, it does the f-ing update that you paused.

[krellft]

Great vid Bri ... but what about the poor buggers who have already had the auto updates done as per your previous video? ... they're stuffed are they not?, as in no going back ...

[lisab]

I stopped this at 0:42 to comment. I'm using "Win 10". Taking your advice some time back, I set the windows updates on a 7 day pause ( I think that's the max time they allow?). However, when I get the new repeated update notice popup's, all is good till I shut the computer down at which time the update automatically updates. I'll do a computer and UPS shutdown every day or 2nd day due to leaving the house.

Following your many cautions, I am seriously concerned. I have had early to mid 2000's software including Word that now don't function as their updates have disabled them. Their complete control and takeover is disturbing and I'm seriously now considering going over to Linux.
Any thoughts and comments would be welcome. Cheers

I used policy plus and your guide on how to defer updates to delay windows updates. If there's a bug in one of them, it gets pulled from distribution before I ever get it. as a result my system runs perfectly, because all the bugs in the updates I get are worked out by the time I get those updates
