Windows 10 Forced Upgrade – Part 2
I told you so.
Looks like I was not the only one agitated with the Forced Windows 10 Upgrade process. A user in California that Uses Windows to run her business was so frustrated that she sued Microsoft for damages – and Won. $10,000.

Impressive. Of course, Microsoft simply paid out the amount and admitted no wrongdoing, and worse, has not really changed the upgrade process, but at least you have one more avenue of redress. Listen, Windows 10 is a significantly improved operating system, but users should be able to decide when and how to update on their own terms (and decide not to upgrade if they wish). And reminder, Microsoft is offering free updates to Windows 10 only until July 29 th . After that, you will need to pay for the operating system.
If you are struggling with the decision, need assistance preventing an upgrade, or hoping to upgrade everything to save money, PC Results can help make the transition easier.
