This is proof that MS is doing things with updates that they shouldn't, and they know it.

They need to let users decide when they want to add functionality by upgrading to a newer "build".

As long as they keep releasing fixes for their updates, I think we will be ok.
I made the mistake of updating a month ago and RDP kept freezing for up to 30 seconds at a time.
Luckily another round of updates and all was well again... and needed to be so, since it is all about RDP for many of us right now.

Sigh, too late. A windows update bonked my computer. Now running Elementary OS, first through USB then installed as primary OS. IF it weren't for office and a few of my games, I'd stay here. Boots fast. Hangs sometimes. But more even in terms of performance. Might try Manjaro; want something a little more game friendly. It won't work with my 1050 in the laptop.
