We control machinery with moving parts with Windows PCs. I shudder thinking of the damages it can do - not safety related fortunately but the sheer damage to production runs and lines could be terrible.

At some point I need to break down and buy one of the $300.00 win 10 systems so I can tear it apart.
The point of that google search was they were using peoples computers to pass along the updates to other people across the interent in a peer to peer fashon.
That just contained severl different articles on how to disable it.

I sure wouldn't want my PC used as an update server because microsoft is to cheap to spend their billions for more servers to take care of 'Their" customers. "<"rant/">"

Using your machine as a CDN for win 10 distribution could be misconstrued as distributing malware in light of all the "listening" that software is apparently doing.

It would just be funny if it weren't so true.

uhm, you know you can turn it off, there are a myriad of articles out there telling you how. It is not galringly obvious but with the articles in hand it is not difficult.

Windows 10 - The Unwanted Sledgehammer

I persevered for a couple of weeks with Win 10 and then gave up and reverted to 7 - I was trying to setup SSRS on it to learn it and it just kept complaining about credentials password ( which were all fine ) etc so out came the backed up image of 7 and within an hour I was up and running including SSRS - I know I'll have to switch eventually but until that day comes.

Even the built-in Resource Monitor will show you which files are being accessed, and by which process.

Got there early and took about an hour to find a parking space. Most lots there are closed due to construction, so there aren't enough spaces for everyone.
At least I didn't have to buy any books (one came free with the class, the other isn't even needed [or used]). That's a savings of about $300.

The Lounge's We're so Much Nicer to clueless N00bs than StackOverflow Halo seems to be missing[^] today[^].
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

For a Texas greeting that was very nice and cuddly. Normally the boon would have been tarred, feathered, shot, hung and run out of town. Some of these perhaps more than once and the order may not be so important.

I've oft wondered about it existing myself; but the supposed existence of it seems to show up whenever the usual suspects decide its time to flame the competition for being hostile to people who don't post the sort of questions it wants while dislocating their shoulders by praising CP for being so much better.

No the robust members were extremely civilised, in past days the vitriol would have been dripping off the screen.
While there seems to be a healthy level of kick the opposition, I don't recall the we so much better clique.
I miss the days when roasting a noob was daily occurrence, we are so much nicer than we used to be!

Seriously? The first post is nothing bad at all, yes there is the Moderator forum, but it is read by a handful of people occasionally. And it was a question to every member, so the Lounge is still a good place to publish.
The second post has mildly sarcastic answers, nothing offensive just plain funny. It is to be expected as not even READING the freaking top of the page. Picture this scene: you have an office near the door to the toilet when a loony suddenly enters the office with its tool in hands looking for the toilets. At the very least you'd make fun of him for the next two weeks, most often somebody would yell at him. Entering a forum without reading the guidelines posted in every friggin page and starting away posting crap is just the transposition of the scene in a forum.

And there's also nothing wrong with stack overflow's process of deciding something is outside their narrow range of on-topic and activating the downvote, vote to close, vote to delete destruction engine.
