Do not install Windows 10 KB5034441 Update!

Recommended Posts

A warning to fellow Windows 10 users!

 

Yesternight, Windows 10 gave me a bit of a scare when it got stuck trying to install the KB5034441 security update. I had to force-reboot my computer and it appears to be fine, but I feel like spreading the word around to make sure this does not happen to more people. Apparently, the security update is faulty and you should avoid installing it for the time being, especially when the workaround suggested by Microsoft could actively damage your system.

Well I have updates paused indefinitely so I'm good here. :)

Wait, do you mean you never updated Windows 10 or you simply manually apply updates?

Not anymore. These days you may get some software that either doesn't run at all on Windows 7 or is just broken.

If you choose to stay behind, you will eventually be left behind for good.

 

I can understand holding off on updates for potential breakage but willfully using an unsupported and obsolete old OS is just playing with fire.

Windows 10 > 11

Windows is Always like that, a good one and a bad one. I'll start from XP for simplicity's sake.

 

Windows XP: Good

Windows Vista : Bad

Windows 7: Good

Windows 8: Bad

Windows 10: Good

Windows 11: Bad

 

Gotta wait for the next version.

With a pattern like that, it makes me wonder if Microsoft is not doing it on purpose...

That is something I've always noticed, that every big OS release seems to be followed by another release that just seems, in essence, to be a bugfix of the last one.  Even Win98 could be argued as just a more improved and stable Win95.  XP kind of breaks that mold and stands sort of on its own as far as I can tell (does it count as an improvement on Win2000? I vaguely, barely remember using the latter), as does Me which I'd make a "one giant bug" joke about but I've never used Me so it would be hack work of me to try

The worst thing about Windows 7 is that it's depricated

Literally everything else about it is superior to every other Windows OS since 8

Windows was never good and the old flip-flop meme only really holds up until 7 (and I'd argue even then, 95 and 98 weren't that far apart in quality, it was just a tradeoff of more features in 98 vs. more crappy MSIE integration as well).  It's more like:

 

Windows XP: Okay

Windows Vista : Bad

Windows 7: Okay

Windows 8: Bad

Windows 10: Bad

Windows 11: Bad

Massive shame they had to drop support for this

Windows was never good

7/XP were pretty damn good

 

10 was pretty decent after the messy bugs were fixed (and before 11 came and forced 10 to have even shittier updates)
