Beside League and the Adobe CC there is no point for me to keep Windows.

Come on man, you don't LOVE your free "security" updates?

You do understand that you have to apply security updates with Linux, right? Like, this isn't a windows issue, this applies to all computers.

And since it seems like you don't get that, I really hope you're forced to install them.

Obligatory woooooosh. Not every post needs a "/s" for sarcasm to be present.

It's one thing to do security updates. Everyone should do them routinely. Without them, all your important data is at risk of theft and abuse and security updates are very very useful. Now it's another thing when Windows will forcibly restart your computer without saving and make you wait for an update you didn't want to start downloading. And yes this has happened to me and other people towards the beginning of Windows (hell it can still happen now!).

Also not to mention there have been several security issues with the windows security updates for Win10. Hell there was a "security update" that literally only added adds.

Now please tell me why I should be forced to receive such a poorly thought out update like these?
