More recently, the Windows 10 Anniversary Update bundled some severe negatives in with its plentiful positives. When that didn’t boost adoption numbers high enough, it morphed into nastier tricks and full-on forced upgrades that prompted some fearful owners to disable Windows updates completely rather than be pushed into Microsoft’s new operating system. It began with endless pop-ups on Windows 7 and 8.1 PCs-pop-ups that started innocently enough before crossing the line into deceptive malware-like tactics. No clear “No thanks” button, just download Windows 10 now or later.
Windows 10 may be the best Windows ever (and I use it daily on my primary PC) but Microsoft’s pulled some tricks that range from questionable to downright gross in order to drive its adoption numbers higher, and to coax you into using the myriad Microsoft services and paid upgrades baked into the operating system.
