Yeah, that update was a major one. Keeps reverting to default settings and totally ignores any modifications users make or changes made to the registry.

At least I've found a way to get my text sizes and fonts back to how I like them.

Most of the new features, especially one called 'sets' I don't need because I don't sync with a smart phone or any other device. Yeah, they now have set a sort of time line.

Microsoft now blocks pages and tells me if I want to view them to turn my ad blocker off !! Damn them. They are now putting ads on the log on screen.

I have UK English but US keyboard so I get $ and not £ but they insist I need the English keyboard.

I've found a short cut way of changing the system font from Segoe UI. I've changed to Tahoma.

Don't you just love upgrades you will never use

I prefer the 'if it ain't broke don't fix it'

Did this upgrade have a version number as I don't think I have had it yet

They are sooooo annoying, it's even interferred with my firewall. I have new updates for the firewall which I keep trying to load, but this isn't happening because they are not being completed, I always have one vunerability.

Can you reset your computer to a previous date. Then reload the updates that you need.?

Not sure when it happened, it's been like it for weeks. It always says I'm fully protected, so may be it's just a glitch.

You should be able to check when the updates are installed, in the update history. You can then work out which ones are needed.

It tells me when I have an update, so I press for the update but nothing happens and then I'm told I'm fully protected with one vunerability.
