    But if you’re a normal person who shuts down their PC on a regular basis, the updates literally *never* bother you

    That’s just not true. I never had a habit of having my pc run 24/7, and windows updates bothered me immensely since win 7

      Do you have a habit of closing the update notifications? The more you tell Windows Update to fuck off, the more it’ll bother you. I literally never get those notifications anymore because I stopped ignoring them. It also helps to manually set your active hours if you haven’t already.

        I just don’t trust major updates not to break something (with good reasons). I have to have a working pc, so I update when I have half an hour of free time to install and roll back if need be.

            “there you go” as in “thank you for explaining why a forced unexpected update from your os in the middle of your work could bother you”?

            you’re welcome

              Look, I’m not saying I agree with it, I’m just explaining why Windows keeps bothering you, and what you need to do to stop it.

                The problem since has been solved, I was replying to your initial position of it never bothering normal people, which is incorrect
