Does Microsoft Love Us? Why was Windows 10 free?

The phenomenon was known to Windows users. Something δεν λειτουργεί και αρχίζουν τα προβλήματα, τα οποία σταματάνε με την παρέμβαση της Microsoft που με ένα update fix διορθώνει την κατάσταση. Με τον ερχομό των Windows 10, αντί να ελαττωθούν τα σφάλματα από τις ενημερώσεις, παρατηρείται ένας συνεχώς αυξανόμενος αριθμός αναφορών με προβλήματα που σχετίζονται με αυτές.

So we've read for updates never ending their installation ever, or even worse for updates that, after a restart, destroy the system.

Some systems still lose their disks because Windows 10 doesn't see them. Reports on this topic began in early August, and while some issues have been fixed, SSD freezing seems to be stable, or has not been fully corrected.Windows 10

It is also quite common that updates are delayed, and may take hours or more to complete. Also note that there are updates that are not completed and Windows 10 automatically returns to a previous state of the system.

This has happened recently to users who tried to install the cumulative update KB3194496. The issue was caused by Xbox Live scheduled game storage feature, even on systems where Xbox Live is not used at all.

All of the above would be permissible, or we would be more tolerant if we were using beta versions of Windows 10 Insider, as preview versions are more likely to justify such behaviors. However, "Final" versions used in production environments still display many bug reports for each update released from the "fixed" channel of the operating system.

Here's another Microsoft "innovation" that has recently begun to feature too many cumulative updates. This means large single patch that includes updates for all components of the operating system.

Οι αθροιστικές ενημερώσεις μπορεί να επιταχύνουν την ενημέρωσης, αλλά κάνουν τα πράγματα, πολύ πιο δύσκολα στην αντιμετώπιση προβλημάτων. Αν παρουσιαστεί κάποιο πρόβλημα, θα πρέπει να αφαιρέσετε το σύνολο της ενημέρωσης, ενώ παλαιότερα θα μπορούσατε απλά να καταργήσετε την ενημερωμένη έκδοση που εμφάνιζε το πρόβλημα.

How do you hear the above? Let's continue because Microsoft does not stop at them:

The company does not give Home users the ability to completely block the updates or stop their automatic installation. In fact, if you run Home or Pro, you have very few options to check which updates will be installed on the system.

While Pro users can postpone updates (they can not block them), the postpone is only applicable to updates that Microsoft does not consider critical. This means that all security updates will be installed immediately, even if the Snooze Updates option is enabled.

The Group Policy Editor is not available in Home editions. The program provides the possibility of some policy to users of Pro versions, which allows them to disable automatic updates altogether.

In line with all of the above in the new Windows 10 model that is now served as Windows as a service, or Windows as a service, all users of the operating system should expect to always have the latest Microsoft technology on their computers, even they do not lift it.

As we had reports from iGuRu.gr the company seems to have turned into a huge playground for testers. You may think you are running the latest stable version, but all of the above proves the opposite.

Although the company has various levels of beta testers for its Windows products, it is unable to release updates that simply work. There are the internal beta testers, through Microsoft for example, but also all the Windows Insiders in different rings, which test Windows 10 beta builds, before their official release to the stable channel.

So while Enterprise (Windows for Business) users can completely block updates, users of Home and Pro should install them.

What does this mean;

All Windows 10 users are beta testers who test "free" Windows for Enterprise Edition customers.

Let's go again: There are internal beta testers, through Microsoft, all Windows Insiders on two different rings, Home and Pro users of Windows 10 are basically beta testers.

Taking into account the issues that are regularly reported whenever new updates are released, it seems that these updates have not been tested well enough.

Home and Pro users who did not pay for Windows 10, but upgraded it for free with Microsoft's offer, report to the company via telemetry useful , which are used to fix bugs before updates are released to valuable business customers.
