JorgeA Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 In the comments box at the bottom of the update info page, I told them that I would not be DOWNgrading to Win8, so no thanks. --JorgeA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaclaz Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Well, without ANY conspiracy approach, you will have to admit that:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2952664/en-usCompatibility update for upgrading Windows 7This update helps Microsoft make improvements to the current operating system in order to ease the upgrade experience to the latest version of Windows.and the "tagging" of it as "Update type: Recommended"could have been better rendered as:Compatibility update for upgrading Windows 7This update fixes a number of possible errors in the procedure of upgrading a currently running Windows 7 SP1 to Windows 8 or Windows 8.1, there is no need whatever to install this update if you are not updating to Windows 8 or Windows 8.1and tagged as "Update type: Unneeded for normal functioning of the OS"."make improvements to the current operating system in order to ease the upgrade experience" Let's call things with their names:"preventively fix possible errors during the upgrade"Gotta go, I have to "ease my wife's driving experience in the morning" <- I must replace her car battery because it does not start if it's cold in the morning .jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TELVM Posted April 24, 2014 Author Share Posted April 24, 2014 Good to see that there are still people who can read ...Why do I read that this is an 'important' 'update'?Which intelligent, literate lifeform would want to voluntarily downgrade from Se7en to Tiles 8.xyz?

Flasche Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I feel slightly insulted actually that Windows Vista didnt get this update . XP got an eol warning update, and now 7 got this. It makes so mad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
