Windows 10 update changed my personal settings---WHY???

Apparently we are in the minority? This update method is intrusive and problematic as others have explained. Yet it continues... Personal computers are no longer personal when some one else controls it, monitors my actions with it (even after I tell it not to) and who knows what else.  I have watched WIndows become increasingly intrusive in its scope of control and how it monitors habits. Apathy follows. Windows XP is not updated anymore I think and was better/ simpler anyway at least from a UI perspective. I'll take Media Player over Groove and file explorer is now a klunky mess for example. Things are going backwards but I understand you gotta have bloatware and engineered complexity to make money.

I don't think they're listening, or we are talking to a robot that has limited comprehension.

Windows, it's your job to develop the updates for the system. Don't give us the job of suggesting through your "feedback hub" the things for you to consider in your next update. All we're asking is this: don't frustrate everybody by changing our settings and preferences! Improve the operating system, but keep our personalized settings intact.

Hi all,

Even though this post and several times trying to send suggestions throughout the hub feature the problem remains the same.

EVERY time that windows updates itself all my sharing options goes rogue. One might think..."so what" just re set it and no harm is done.

Well the problem is a bit more complex. We have several users using the same sharing options to allow them to use one shared printer with more PCs. Off course, it is a simple operation to solve for ONE user but a far more difficult task to perform to more than 800 hundred users.

So microsoft, since we all now this can't be the result of incompence, can we expect that from now on these options we be left untouched? If it is usefull, the more annoying updates are the security ones (we know for sure that they "break" the settings we left set on PCs.

You may know that some biz activities run with shared printers and to solve this issue would help all these activities around the globe.

Hope this will be taken in consideration

Kind regards

Logan

I have disabled the updates in registry,

There's your problem. Stop editing the Registry and/or running registry cleaners and your system will perform better.

As for the rest of your rant, you have every right to not use Windows 10. By all means format your systems and use something else.

Good luck!
