Good job, I hope you get this bug soonI got through a couple of paragraphs. Good luck to you.
Wishing ill on people’s systems is not very nice. No one here wished that upon you. It shows something of your character as all of our posts do.
MS is not forcing anyone to buy or use any of their products. There are alternatives. You seem to be an advanced user. “Reimagining Microsoft” has been in the news for quite some time. There’s one I found linked below that dates back to September, 2011. I’m sure you’ve read at least some articles on the subject. “Reimagining Microsoft” focuses on “devices and services” as a new business plan. It’s not new news that these services will be integrated into their OSs such as OneDrive is now in 8.1. MS Live accounts to sign into a device, MS Store apps working in conjunction with one another, Bing search, the Store, live tiles, and more are all integrated into 8.1. Attempting to create an OS to work across all devices is nothing new either.
Do you not research a product before you buy it? Most people do. Even then after when we buy the product sometimes we decide we don’t like the product we have a certain time span to take it back for a full refund. At least here in the U.S. that’s the law.
BTW, I read your post #15, so I had somewhat of an idea of what you were up to. When I got to post #16 I thought not to waste the time to read it, which is anyone’s prerogative, including yours. I think it to be very dangerous to hack the Registry to the extreme that you did. Not very good advice IMO.
Here’s another item to add to my list in post #12.
5) Use a different OS.
Again, good luck to you and have a great day.
