    Why did Windows say it was running an update when it was installing Windows 11 without...


    My laptop told me this morning I needed to restart for an update. I close out and start the update. I notice that it's taking a long time, and I also notice that my fonts have changed on the update screen. After a few hours of lost work, my finally boots again and my worst fears of come to pass... Microsoft finally installed that piece of **** OS Windows 11. I never installed this ****. It never asked me to do this. I've disabled the update since it was announced, so why did it **** install on my machine without **** telling me? I don't care if I can roll back this ****, I shouldn't have to do

    :)
