I didn't even have administrator authority, the OS should never have downloaded in the first place.

Oh stop moaning.

Go and buy a Mac, they're meant for people who don't understand computers, like Buttplug.

Oh dear the dirty mac brigade meet the flash player the never bending story

of course Harry bought both

nothing to understand in that

Good grief you haven't learned have you?

I don't buy the shit, I get it all free.

Sounds like Crusty, bunny for nothing ,chicks for free

even for free, it's a waste of space and time

how many hours have you spent installing that shit and configuring it ? see it's not free at the end,

It's about the most hands off installation of Windows ever.

So not a lot, really.

And I'm getting paid for it, so why should I give a fuck?

Mind you, technically I'm getting paid to doss around on TD.

^ nope. Apache OpenOffice - seems ok so far (about 1 hour into using it).

I had Libre before but never got on with it too well.

WTF is up with Office?

I'm running 2013 on everything and it's flawless.

You've been tinkering haven't you.

^ nope. Windows 10 doesn't like the MS Office on my work computers - almost certainly unlicensed copies, so MS has decided to shut all the applications down...

Likely the intended end game for Gates yet will create havoc here in the 3rd world where even safety critical government sites are on XP and most are using unauthorised programmes.In rural areas genuine software is rare, is your office in LOS ?

Well fucking hard luck then.

If you've bought a machine with Win 8.anything you're a dumb fucking shit if you don't go to 10.

You're a bit of a twit of you go back to 7, but at least it's better than 8.

If you go back to XP you're either stuck with some really shitty h/w or s/w, or you're a fucking idiot.

WinXP forever, best Windows ever

why change ? and the good news is that support is not ending, there is a trick to get all the updates until 2020

you will have to be brain dead to switch to Win7 (a gay version of OSX) or Win8 or even Win10.

So what's the trick ? Or is it only for clever people?

That was my point from the very start.

This OS is designed to lock people in and force them to pay for apps such as Office. If it detects apps that aren't paid for them it locks them out - this is illegal and MS have already been sued for such behavior...

Say what?

Got a link for that?

^ here's a few dozen to get you going then move on from there at your leisure...

MS has no right to come into my computer (in this case my workplace computer) and stop existing apps from working...

If they wanna file a case against my employer then they're welcome to within the laws of the land, but they are neither judge nor jury, nevermind both.

Yeah I thought you were talking bollocks.

They have every right to stop you trying to use unlicensed copies of their software, you arse.

You should sue the Arse off them Betty

I gotta agree with Harry here, most of the shit I nick offline I have to stop dialling home via my firewall.

If I was daft enough to take that block off I wouldn't be calling them unlawful if they shut me out
