You don't really to update win7 after 2014. I pretty much uninstalled all security patches except the the last ones of december 2014.

Any new patches are basically win10esque spyware camouflaged as "critical updates".

Do you have proof before telling people to remove security updates?

Pretty much the only excuse to get win10 is being forced to use it if you wanna play forza7, horizon or some dx12 love. If those dx12 games were vulkan the need would only be limited to MSFT games.

Remove and prevent security patches.
That's how we'll see the next iteration of the WannaCry malware.

From time to time they simply release new security update that not only "patch some holes" but overrides many older ones.

The most dangerous thing is to click fish email exes or links, or "get flash player, *** media plauer, performance boost" from pop-ads or advertising plagued website.

And the next most dangerous thing is to purposely turn off security updates.

You have documentation on this "overrides many older ones" concept?

I'm using Classic Shell currently, with no issues on the latest release. I see that as of December he had decided to stop future releases but I imagine somebody will be likely to do something with the source code in all probability. Anyhow, for what's out NOW, it still works fine on the five systems I have it installed on, all of which are on the Fall release of Win10.

Maybe I won't be able to say that after the next Win update, but for now I don't see an issue.
