Microsoft reflects on 20 years of Windows Patch Tuesday

Bill Gates did it, and now AI will keep patching Windows for 20 more years...
By Alfonso Maruccia, November 10
 
Microsoft is now focused on the "quality and reliability" of its security updates, Cable noted, working proactively to improve transparency and align with the EU's General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR).

Yup. Full focus on quality and reliability will always pay of, LOOL @Mr. Fox+++

 

Microsoft confirms Windows 10 and 11 activation issues, says it is investigating techspot.com

 

Facepalm: Microsoft is investigating a new activation issue that is affecting many Windows 10 and 11 PCs. The problem seems to have cropped up last month after the company pushed out an update to plug a loophole that allowed Windows 7,8, and 8.1 users to upgrade to Windows 10 and 11 for free. However, the update is reportedly causing issues for some people who say they used the method to legitimately move to Windows 10 or 11 from an older version of the OS.

 

According to aggrieved users, the problem affects Windows 10/11 installations that were legally activated using Windows 7/8 product keys as part of a free upgrade offer from Microsoft. However, following last month's update some of those installations are reportedly getting deactivated if any hardware component in the PC is changed or the BIOS is updated.

Microsoft is screaming for attention

In the last few days, Microsoft has drawn the ire of many Windows users several times. For example, some users temporarily had to give a reason if they wanted to close the OneDrive app on Windows. After the media attention that this brought, the company backed down and stopped the feedback dialogue again. The new Outlook's silent synchronization of access data for email accounts with the Microsoft cloud was also recently met with little approval.

Microsoft is going to offer three years of extended support security updates for Windows 10, stretching its EOL from late 2025 to late 2028.

 

No pricing yet, but they will be allowing individual consumers to buy into the program.  When they did this for Windows 7, they upped the price each year that the program was active to further nudge people to move off.

(Probably easier to just Windows 10 Enterprise IOT LTSC, which will be supported through 2031 and no extra cost for updates if you somehow manage to purchase a license.)

Yup... If they can't sell you a new license (you don't want to pay for new hardware) they will still charge you if you still clinge on your old Windows 10 machines. Great idea but this should have been for free anyway. Their "free" OS should become free also as long they will support it. And they will. My best guess... People will find ways to avoid paying the updates 🙂

LoL. Microsoft still just don't get it. Are Redmond HQ filled with stupids? Of course most people prefer to avoid the new and messed up. The only way Microsoft can steal people from Win 10 and over to Win 11 is to make older Win 10 less appealing forwards.

If you use StartAllBack, a popular third-party tool for tweaking Windows 11 UI, you may have a hard time upgrading to a newer build. Microsoft is blocking updates due to "performance issues."

 

Statcounter has released its March 2024 report, showing the latest changes in the Windows market, such as Windows 11 falling 28.16% to 26.72% and Windows 10 climbing from 67.23% to over 69%.

 

1711966703_statcounter-windows_version-w

 

Valve published the results of the March 2024 Steam Hardware & Software Survey, revealing the most popular CPUs, GPUs, and operating systems its customers use to play various games. 

 

Statcounter is not the only analytics service reporting a decrease in Windows 11's market share. Valve published the latest results of its monthly Hardware and Software Survey, claiming Windows 11 lost a bit of its customers among Steam users as well.

 

Yup, as youall can see.... Newer has to be better, LOOL

So it begins: Microsoft starts showing full-screen ads about the end of Windows 10 support

 

1712839291_windows_11_ad.jpg

 

1f2df49ab2970651f31c7a3df4e3e630.jpg  

Microsoft reportedly started displaying full-screen Windows 11 ads with a notification about the upcoming end of Windows 10. And of course, even users with unsupported hardware are getting the banner.

 

One of the promises Microsoft made about Windows 11 was about the performance benefits it had. A former Microsoft engineer, however, has called Windows 11 out on its "comically bad" performance

Microsoft is desperate. They really want acces to your data and privacy. Isn't it enough what they can do with telemetry in your OS?

 

Soon Microsoft will ask you to abandon your local account

The latest tactic in Microsoft's fight against local accounts is a notice for Windows 10 users.

Microsoft going backwards into the future. The exact opposite of innovation. Whats the point with an upgrade to the worse? The world rolling forwards. But Microsoft moving backwards. What a fiasco.

This also apply to Windows 10 users.... Loads of people are damn stupid. They think newer has to be better. Some even click the update button everyday, even several times a day to see if there is something newer aka better coming from Microsoft. Please tell me whats wrong with some people bro @ryan

LooL. People don't want cancer installed on their computers. People have voted with common sense @Mr. Fox

How Windows 10 is currently annoying us with pop-ups

Windows 10 displays full-screen adverts for the upgrade, even on Windows 10 computers that do not meet the requirements for Windows 11. The annoying upgrade notifications are even appearing on Windows 10 PCs within companies. At the same time, Microsoft has increased the number of upgrade-eligible Windows 10 PCs. So far, however, none of this has been successful; on the contrary, Windows 10 has recently gained market share, while Windows 11 has lost market share.

More crap. But from AMD this time. They licking Microsofts asssses. What's the problem offer Windows 10 drivers? This older OS is still not EOL when Zen 5 is out from AMD. Forced to use an inferior OS is just awful. Disgusting!!!

Windows 11 gets more ads in its latest update

neowin.net · 4 hours ago

Microsoft is rolling out new updates for Windows 11. The good thing is that they fix bugs and improve security. The bad thing is that they introduce more ads, namely in the Start menu.
