Windows 10 update automatically deleting some users' documents

reddit.com/r/Windows10/comments/9l128k/warning_1809_upgrade_misplaceddeleted_files_in/

Twenty-four hours ago I was debating switching my main photo editing machine back to Windows 10. "I'll just use it for ACDSee and Affinity Photo, just editing, Windows 10 really isn't that bad," I told myself. I decided to wait, have lunch, and think things through before I did anything. "Nah, I'll give Digikam an honest try for a few weeks to see what I think about it."

Then this morning... boom. Dear Microsoft, thanks for validating my decision to stick with Linux. When I heard about the new 1809 update a few days ago, my first thought was "What did they break this time?" Congrats, you went above and beyond all expectations. You fucktards. You just can't help yourselves. Every major update, you accomplish some sort of truly epic fuckup. You're so predictable.

Aaaaaand I'm officially done with Wangblows. Installing Haiku this evening.

TEN THOUSAND KEKS!
This is the punishment for those who uses the botnet.

Install gentoo.

I bet this was done on purpose.

Maybe Windows is trying to drive normies to linux so that they can pozz linux. Checkmate linux.

YOUR FILES WOULD HAVE BEEN SAFE IN THE CLOUD, GOY

Getting ready to read headlines for Microsoft/Linux

...

I have a windows machine and you can turn off updates in the group policy editor. Windows can't even break through it.

How is this a surprise? They announced a month ago that Windows would automatically delete local files to save disk space because OneDrive®. They fired their QA team years ago. The dots are easy to connect.

Anyone blindsided by this is probably ate too much paste in Computer Foundations.

THIS IS THE FUTURE YOU CHOSE

Can't people sue Microsoft over this?

Imagine how much personally commissioned, uncirculated diaperfur smut got wiped from existence owing to some Pajeet's incompetence.

6 months ago windows 10 "helpfully" completely fucked grub in an update. that was the signal to get rid of it.

Worrying trend of hidden disk-cleanup services. Oh, you haven't opened these files in the past 6 months? We'll just delete those for you so you can have more disk space!

And thank god for that.

MS is saying that automatic cloud storage will become part of Windows soon, so they can delete those files from your hard drive and cloud account in one smooth motion.

I thought there was some kind of incredibly convoluted method you could disable the updates with?

Hahahahahaha. It's called unplug the Internet nigga.

WTF. This is a classic snatch & grab maneuver. It's the same way they stole everyone's gold dollar coins and replaced them with worthless paper that gets devalued over time. Probably Microsoft also will expect people to start paying monthly fees for this "cloud service" after everyone has their data captured in it. You don't own nothing, goy!

It's even worse than you think. Intel and MS are teaming up to put 5G modems into your future CPUs, along with a small flash drive only. The entire platform will be running off the cloud, with the baseband firmware handling the access to the remote filesystem and merely caching results to the local store. It's Chromebooks on steroids.

You seem to be implying that the windows operating system and files stored on the aforementioned system are your property. They aren't, you'e renting your Operating system and Microsoft reserves the right to brick your entire system without warning or reason.

Windows users should count their lucky stars for every second of uninterrupted use they get out of their system because they are entitled to none of it

Formatting a HDD isn't that convoluted tbh

Stockholm Syndrome.

Strangely one of the only group policies that seems to actually work

Ah, yes, the famous all-solving group policy editor that effectively costs US$99 for most people to use because it doesn't come with Home edition, requiring a paid upgrade to Pro.

A simpler solution is to stop using Windows entirely. It's time to just rip that bandaid off, folks.

...

...

That pile of junk was doing it since first version. "Don't keep documents on drive C:" rule is there for a reason.

BUT user HOW CAN YOU EXPECT ME TO HAVE MULTIPLE DRIVES I MEAN THIS IS THE CURRENT YEAR I NEED EVERYTHING ON ONE DRIVE BECAUSE MY COMPUTER HAS TO BE THE SIZE OF A TOASTER OVEN
the real solution is to not use windows
and if you must use windows use it in a vm
and if you can't use it on a vm use it only on a laptop

Drivelets, when will they learn?

Yep this all checks out, he's definitely a loyal windows user

If you use Windows 10 Home, switch to Windows server database edition
In the meantime download the Sysinternals suite
run
PsExec.exe -i -s -d cmd.exe
use the system prompt to run services.msc
disable the task scheduler
done no update shit
The only thing they give you these days anyway is some new fucking metro tile for retards to click on after a complete reinstall of the system.

What a bunch of fucking morons.

Ballmer OS will probably be the last Microsoft OS I will use. Still won't use any Unix derivatives, because I don't have a server or an ancient mainframe, just a bunch of personal computers. Windows getting pajeeted really makes the market vacuum felt though, there's just no options anymore like there used to be. You can't just get an Amiga or an Acorn or a ZX Spectrum instead, you can only trade down for worse alternatives, at least in terms of real world usability.

The feedback posts are only accessible through Shitdows 10's 'feedback hub app', so I don't think it's possible to archive them directly.
The updates being pulled happened last week according to ZDNet: zdnet.com/article/microsoft-pulls-windows-10-october-update-version-1809/

Even those furfucks deserve a working PC. Fighting this bullshit gives us strange bedfellows. Good opportunity to spread linux, too.

Equally good opportunity to help out ReactOS developers with a new logo.

it wouldn't have mattered if the update caused people's computers to burst into flames and killed 1000 children; it would not stop people from using windows.

microsoft knows this. this does not create quality. there's no competition except apple and apple only works on apple hardware, it's not really competition, and the npc won't ever switch to linux.

Pacta sund servandas has its limits. Maintaining files in the system is an essential part of the product, which means that the company can not excuse itself of providing the minimum service offered.
It’s the same thing as you contracting a parking lot in order to protect your vehicle and goods, but the company saying that they are no responsible for the goods inside the vehicle.

Linux is already pozzed and it doesn't have the same utility as Windows anyway. Where we are going there will be no worthwhile operating systems.

Microsoft has withdrawn its latest update

THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING MICRO BROS!!!

I love Microsoft now

I wonder if this will have an effect on the LTSC release. Will they release an 2019-fixed version or a service pack or are we stuck with things as they are?

We need a slogan similar to
but for ever daring to let pajeets manage and execute your company's software development.
I also would laugh louder at the MS faggots but with the latest Linux cucking that is going on I am concerned. What are our damn options? I already keep some older Linux ISOs just in case that they fuck their shit up completely. Do I need to look into BSDs?

Your short-term options are: Devuan, Slackware, or Gentoo with kernel 4.18 or earlier.
Your long-term options are: DragonflyBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD. Or if you're into more alternative stuff: FreeDOS, Haiku, RISC OS, AROS.
Of course, you can also have an offline Windows 7 or XP computer for games.

The fork made by incompetent retards that can't even keep the installer instructions somewhat up to date?

I don't know, the last Windows I had installed on a physical computer was XP and I removed it in 2005.

Works great for me, also no systemd or other nigger ass Poetteringisms.

He's an East German spy you know.

sudo apt-get install AIDS
sudo apt-get install transition any%

Thanks Microsoft for indirectly proving our point about Code of Conducts.

so this is hell

older build (1709), heavily modified, with updates integrated at the ISO level is working for me

The last time I use Windows was when I was luring pedos to my kill house, I had to be very careful to make sure that I looked like the average little girl and if I was using Linux they would know that it was a fake because little girls don't use Linux.

All non issues for Win Server.
You can fix most garbage by disabling the task scheduler which does all the telemetry and update scheduling too.
do them manually when you have time for them
NTFS also doesn't have that problem, just like ext4 or 3
Modern OSs use disk fragmentation. They spread the files cleverly so you have less file fragmentation. You can also defrag your ext but just like defragmentating NTFS it's not actually needed
Task scheduler does that shit in background but you can also do it manually while you're doing something else that doesn't use the hard drive heavily.
put a sticker on it

There are valid reasons to run GNU/Linux but you don't have to force it on everyone and invent reasons like the filesystem.

*can fix most garbage in the Non-Server

Here are valid reasons:
* You can run it on PowerPC, the most advanced architecture.
* You can download them legally.
* It uses less resources by default.
* It doesn't spy on you.
* You can theme it without the risk of bricking it.
* You can run Windows shit through a VM with GPU passthrough or wine. Wine even supports DX 11 and I think 12 too
* It has a proper terminal unlike CMD which is kinda like DOS-commands for Windows.

I'm sure you can think of many more

If you watch the anime you'll find out she's tripping balls on the same OS all the way until transcending such things.

The operating system isn't even similar to Linux, it's a GUI-based OS that uses primarily mouse/voice input rather than command line and keyboard.

So you complain if you get security updates, and complain if you don't.
I guess the only solution is closing CVEs as NOT A BUG and hoping nobody targets the three users running your specific flavor of autism.
Fake, also not having your OS on an SSD is just shortsighted.
