Plodding through the last of the Windows 7 Cumulative updates. Started with 18 of them, been working my way through the list in chronological order. I read people raving about Windows 10, how great it is, but I read even more people ranting about it, especially since many tried and true pieces of software are blocked from being used (unless you know how to get to the PowerShell or othersuch things to work your way around it)
I threw in the towel for when it came to the Windows 7 updates. Total Media Center was a helluva lot better than anything else out on the market now. BUT the idiot company 'forgot' to pay Dolby their royalties, and further development came to a halt. That media center is what kept me from installing the Quarterly Roll Ups, because it would disable TMT. But alas, all good things must come to an end, whether you like it or not. I've had a few hiccups and glitches after updating Win 7 (my Hotkey program isn't loading at start up, but I can start it afterward. Might just need reinstalling to fix whatever the updating has screwed up)
Once I get Win 7 set to rights, then comes the fun part. Finding a way to get %#$#$$% Windows 10 to update like it's supposed to WITHOUT having to 'refresh', as some software I have is charged per installation, not per machine. And let me tell you, that really sucks. And when I get fed up with the nagging nannyware of Windows 10, I will hie on back to Windows 7.
Hurray, for the dual boot system.
