For the last 6 months or so I have had the Windows 10 icon set in the taskbar of my Widoows 7 Netbook urging me to get a free update to Windows 10.......which I have just ignored as I have no problems with,and currently happy with my current Win 7 OS.Until a couple of days ago when the Win 10 window jumped up and announced that Win 10 will be scheduled to put in my machine on May 23 2016.......today! so far nothing! I'm hoping it stays that way........has anyone else had a problem with Microshaft forcing this crap on their computer? :-?

Anyone read the latest regarding Win10 upgraders?

It seems that "cancellation" now forces an install.

Way to gain customer trust, Nadella.

Had to remove latest Flash update with WinX. It was shutting down Photoshop when I opened a file. Sometimes it would trick me and let me finish some work and then when I would try to save it it would shut it down and not save.

Weird, I don't get these... Probably because I'm on 16.04 Xenial Xerus.
