Microsoft's latest feat: We recently reported that some users of older Windows systems are suddenly seeing a window pop up notifying them that they are scheduled to upgrade to Windows 10. programming of updating older systems to Windows 10 without the owner's consent seems to be Microsoft's new trick, and in some cases, it's quite difficult to block.
The image you see below was posted on reddit from a user who claims to have been prompted out of nowhere to schedule the upgrade to Windows 10 on computer of.
He swears that he did not try to install Windows 10 on his own, and that he did not click anywhere that reported installing, or upgrading.
Βέβαια το γεγονός ότι χρησιμοποίησε την αναζήτηση της Google για να βρει τρόπο να πάρει το screenshot δείχνει ότι δεν είναι και τόσο έμπειρος χρήσητης, αλλά παρόλα αυτά η εικόνα που δημοσίευσε παρουσιάζει ενδιαφέρον:
In the image above you can see that there is none choice canceling the scheduled upgrade. The only option Microsoft gives is to change the scheduled task, stating:
"Note that the scheduled time cannot be changed after that."
Ο χρήστης του reddit που δημοσίευσε την εικόνα ισχυρίζεται ότι προσπάθησε να κλείσει την εφαρμογή με δεξί κλικ στο icon which was in the taskbar but it didn't work.
Perhaps it could stop the process from Task Manager by pressing Alt + F4, but has not yet reported whether it has tried it.
The above image shows us how Microsoft uses to promote its new operating system. The company trying to catch the target that 2017 wants to have Windows 10 on a billion devices does not leave room for the end user who does not want to change operating system.
