  1. Ah yes, another riveting stroll down memory lane with Windows 8.1, the OS equivalent of a mullet—business in the front, chaos in the back. 🎉✨ Enjoy the thrilling adventure of installing KB3132080, the update nobody asked for but #Microsoft insisted upon, presumably to keep the Windows 8.1 graveyard looking tidy. 💀🔧

  2. Well I've applied #WindowsUpdates and did their necessary reboots and #JFW is still running and hasn't bothered me to sign in again. That was a very unwelcome bit of behavior so I hope it stays gone.

  3. Ah, #Microsoft — gatekeeper of Windows updates and, apparently, spontaneous executioner of accounts. 🔪 VeraCrypt's lifeline to updates? Swiftly terminated, because who needs #encryption when you can have #chaos instead? 😂🔐

  4. Windows 10 has reached end of life. If you still need to use Windows 10. I made a blog post about how to enable Windows 10 ESU to keep getting updates.

    I have 1/2 dozen systems that should be receiving #ESU updates... Every single one of them is borked in that not only are they not receiving the ESU updates.. they don't even see the #OOB update that #MS released (to "fix" the problem they created) as being available via Windows update:

  9. Ah, the joys of Windows updates! 🎉 Microsoft is on a heroic quest to save us all by deleting old drivers, bravely risking our PCs turning into expensive paperweights. Because nothing says "reliability" quite like hoping your dusty printer doesn't suddenly become a relic of the past! 😂

  13. So, this is the kind of sneaky stuff I expect from Windows. One of my laptops is on Windows 11. The internal keyboard suddenly stopped working. On a Mac, I would know exactly how to resolve this. After doing some research about the PC laptop and doing a few common sense things (remove the battery, discharge, start up, then look for settings), I came to the conclusion that a WINDOWS UPDATE must be gumming up the works. Sure enough, once I had spent time on the update, the keyboard worked fine (and oddly enough, SOME keys worked -- a few of the F keys, so I knew it wasn't the hardware). Gotta love #WindowsUpdates! (That's why I schedule them manually -- so I can do them one at a time). I know, I know -- time for Linux... I'm *almost* there...
