Windows - how much I hate/detest/loathe/abhor it! at voiddeck.com

How do I hate thee?

Let me count the ways.

1) You insist on rebooting even though I am trying hard to save my work which I have been working on for half the day. My inputs don’t matter

2) … and if I am not around, you reboot yourself anyway. Critical software upgrades you say.

3) You want me to update the Outlook Junk Mail filter. Even though I have no Outlook installed

Rebooting not because of Windows update?
Control Panel->System->’Advanced’ tab->’Startup and Recovery’->Settings. Under ‘System failure’, untick ‘Automatically restart’.

There’s nothing wrong with Windows …

… that Linux can’t fix.

Will look for you on Facebook.

“Use the Mac, dude”. Sorry can’t resist, we all know why you can’t use Mac in your environment.

Also may be, some domain policy are affecting the way your Windows behaves, all this automatic updates and actions can be deployed via Group Policy. Are you logged in to any domain ?
