Annoying Win 10 Ad Is Nomore

I want to delete it but it says I don't have permission? I have to have permission to delete it from my PC? The file is GWX.exe   Next thing you know Microsoft will be fining us for not having required programs.    DON"T LAUGH!

There was a Windows Update package that you have to uninstall and poof it goes away. Then you have to hide it in Windows Update so it doesn't reinstall itself.
 
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3035583
 
Google uninstall KB3035583 and you'll find lots of instructions.

 In order, then, to discover the limit of deepest tones, it is necessary not only to produce very violent agitations in the air but to give these the form of simple pendular vibrations. - Hermann von Helmholtz, predicting the role of the electric bassist in 1877.

Slightly off topic, but have you guys noticed that with Win 10 the internet connection is intermittent? I have a Broadcom ethernet driver which Win 10 installed, but it keeps kicking me out every 20 minutes and then back in again in a minute or two......very annoying as I do game online and get kicked out .
 
Microsoft is aware of this and suggest to use the Win 8/8.1 drivers in compatibility mode (until a better driver is made): http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/forum/insider_wintp-insider_web/windows-10-intermittently-drops-ethernet-andor/ea96e7bf-e1cb-4ed9-8782-f20dceab3e2d
 
 
At Broadcom there's a newer driver available, but it's only slightly better (drops out after about <=> 35 min):
https://www.broadcom.com/support/?gid=9
 
I'll test out the Win 8.1 drivers and see if it's more stable.......other than this issue, Win 10 has been really good.

The connections are getting overloaded and dropping while Microsquish tries to upload all of your files to their servers.

They're using them to create sounds for Windows 11.

Hi,
 
I gave up on Craig as a friend a long time ago! When you can't even have a beer with someone at a local bar, you know something stinks!

Music is not about notes and chords! My poem is not about the computer or monitor or letters! It's about how I was able to translate it from my insides!
