>Microsoft has quietly fixed a software update it released last week, which effectively prevented Windows 10 users from connecting to the Internet or joining a local network.
>It's unclear exactly which automatic update caused the problem or exactly when it was released—current (unconfirmed) signs point to KB3201845 released on December 9—but whatever it was appeared to break DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), preventing Windows 10 from automatically acquiring an IP address from the network.

Happened to me last week, though reinstalling intel network drivers took care of it.
Every day windows 10 gives me some form of reminder that its the most broken os on the planet but its required to run many of the proframs I need.
Like a few months ago

Is there really no way of disabling updates forever? Will they automatically turn on again after a while?

Install Shut Up Windows 10
Use all recommend settings.

>>57999302
just wait until they kill the small updates and pack everything in multi-GB behemoth updates.

good thing you can opt out of updates in Windows 10 to avoid things like this in the future

Who the fuck cares about that neckbeard shit, it sounds like the kind of crap only loonix lusers care

So that's why my laptop suddenly won't get internet on my wifi.

>>57999302
This is why I'm saying on Win8.1 forever.
Always some bullshit on the news about Win10 fucking shit up royally.

You must be new here. /g/ is where /v/ comes to shop mostly these days

We're talking about dhcp clients. How do you propose avoiding all workstations from using dhcp? Static IP on everything? Fuck off.

Ive been using Windows 10 for the first time this week
Holy shit, there is zero control. Processes randomly just kick off without warning and start updating shit.
I've even stopped as much telemetry stuff as possible but it's just awful and I dont trust them one bit.
The instant my new SSD arrives I'm wiping this install and dual booting debian and windows 10 solely for games.

Windows 10 confirmed for as stable as arch

Wasn't the entire fucking point of forcing users to all be on the same version of Windows to avoid this type of thing?
>>
>>58003157
Microsoft office and visual studio for work, gamemaker for hobby, and a few steam games to play with buds on weekend

>>58003487
All golden on win 7. So why exactly do you need windows 10?

>>58004245
DX12 obviously, you Gaylord fucking retarded manchild faggot

Except for the forced updates that break your system and the forced reboots that interrupt whatever you are doing.

My dad was panicking when he "lost the internet". Took all of 2 minutes to fix, though.
