Upgrading to Windows 10…or maybe not.

My game machine is or was a smoking i7 hog with all the bells and whistles of the day but even after some small memory and SSD upgrades is still 5+ years old. And I have a lot of stuff that barely worked on Win7…so I’m probably going to pass on upgrading it to Windows 10 until I upgrade the machine probably later this year. But how to keep Windows Updates on and resist Microsoft trying to ‘Auto Upgrade’ my box to Windows 10? GRC to the rescue…the same folks that gave you Spinrite (old school yum) and one of the first and best port/security scanners now has a free util to disable the Windows 10 Upgrade.

Love it! Honestly I think if I didn’t have games I would make the move to Mac/Linux for my main machine. My main dev machine is a Macbook…never needs a reboot and rarely crashes (once every month or two or three).
