Go Away Windows 10
I ran Windows 10 on one of my laptops for awhile. It looks nice. It also has major problems, including privacy concerns and the inability to truly stop/delay update delivery and installation. That laptop is now running Ubuntu Mate again. And for those of us on pre Windows 10 machines, it’s pushy. I get daily prods to upgrade on machines that I know good and well will either run dog slow or not at all on 10. My goal now is to make that nag go away. Here’s my current method. This seems to work on Windows 8.1 and Windows 7. Your mileage may vary and, as with everything I post, this is all at your own risk. The screenshots that follow are from Windows 8.1.
