Worst part is that they want Win10 installs to move over to ReFS instead of NTFS, yet ReFS doesn't even support EFS yet, so expect another nutella-era microsoft "fix" for ReFS soon.

>>57047683
Some people are lucky enough to not encounter these problems
Not a lot of viable alternative options. Macs are too expensive, linux....is linux, 7 is now just as bad due to new update system. And 8. Fuck 8
A lot of fellow students/teachers/co-workers in the same business are literally blind to the faults. They either know a fix, just ignore it or do something to work around the issue. After which they keep calling it the best thing ever. People like this exist and are there fixing computers and teaching computing and making decisions. Be afraid.

What's my best choice if I have to use Windows? download 7 and turn off updates?

Putty is used as a terminal when logging in via SSH/telnet/serial. It's not a stand alone terminal emu such as guake or terminator. The fact that it's 2016 and we still have to download a third party term program (i.e con emu) is stupid.

ITT: Tech illiterate retards that could not take the literal 5 seconds of time to open Group Policy and disable automatic windows updates.

If you faggots don't want to deal with this, go back to 7, or better yet, install Gentoonix.

Pretty much this. Install windows in a vm and take that damn tire clamp of your machine. it's your machine. It doesn't belong to them.

If they are going to micromanage your whole machine, the least they could do is give good support so your scouring the web looking for the odd intel driver and trying to figure out in what order they should be installed etc etc. or opening the properties and trying to find the device name on something and it gives three examples and you have to look up each one and each one has different drivers. Aaaah.

I am just sorry for guys unable to create custom W7 ISO to enable it to boot on UEFI system without USB2.0 emulation (which is common on new hardware which doesn't specify W7 compatibility anymore).

I though it would be as simple process as having ISO, zip with drivers and one click bin blob which extracts it and combine onto usb stick, but no. It took me like 30 minutes and two tries to boot W7 installer on new mobo without any USB 2.0 controller.

windows can't handle having more than ~200 separate updates which is why a fresh install of 7 takes literally days to update now.

Here's something happening to me right now

I was using windows 7 and, when I was sleeping, it apparently went into updates. The next morning, I start the computer, windows doesn't start and instead I have... a GRUB invite. I have never ever installed any linux products or other OS. So what the fuck is happening ?

>>57054680
that and they were displeased that people were using 7's ability to pick and choose updates to not install the telemetry and GWX junk

>no response to keyboard at all, only mouse
>close start menu and reopen
>start typing

On the following day start menu still doesn't work.
Why?
Turns out that by default M$ botnet 10 half-hibernates (fast boot or something) and not actualy shutdowns. Because "muh boot times".
