- A new patch is being quietly pushed to Windows 10 (and 11) PCs
- It’ll force upgrades in certain circumstances to keep the PC in support
- This update will mean more nag prompts coming to your PC
The nagging to pay for the OneDrive subscription is something I would only see on trashy websites full of ads. I guess that’s what Windows has become.
A trashy website full of ads, that’s the most accurate description of Windows indeed. Nice.
Google is the same. Every time I open the stock gallery app instead of the FOSS one it nags me to enable backups for my photos. And I know if I do I will be forced to pay their subscription.
What gallery app do you use that is FOSS?
Lol I went there and got the entire set of apps.
Well you won’t be forced, but they will take your gmail hostage since all Gapps share the same 15gb now.
I figured to turn on one drive for my business user account as I was using two computers.
Then I decided, that I didn’t want it to sync the documents folder since I don’t really use it.
The settings told me that it can’t stop syncing the desktop, pictures, or documents folders because they had critical files or something like that.
I just signed out of OneDrive and the problem was solved.
If it was so critical why does everything work after signing out?
I fucking hate using windows.
Stuff like this is why I disabled the TPM on my computer. No TPM means that you’re “not eligible” for 11, meaning I don’t get nagged by the random full screen pop-ups.
I updated my bios at some point and it turned on the TPM again, be careful! When I got an update window and quite the shock, I added a group policy to block the update as a backup.

Is there anyway to permanently stop windows from updating? I tried few methods off YT but updates do not stop.
(No, don’t recommend me Linux. I have tried it(Mint and Manjaro) and it is way out of my skillset)

Everything else people commonly suggest online does not work.
