Be nice if he did. I don't get what the fuss is about, because this would give him exactly what he wants/demands and hence settles the lawsuit: 'Download Windows 7 Disc Images (ISO Files)' https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows7 I've used that. Works fine as long as you have a valid key. This would have been much better if it had been a class action lawsuit And another class action lawsuit to included all the botched, forced Windows 10 full reinstall upgrades as well. And maybe another one for lost downtime for all the forced full reinstall updates. BTW, what *is* this 'Windows 10' thingy you guys keep talking about!? :-) Best thing since Windows 95. |

I had a bug report that I couldn't reproduce and I suspected it might be related to the target system using Windows 10 while mine uses 7. I created a virtual machine (8gb ram, 120gb HD, 1 processor + hyperthread), installed Windows 10 and tried it. That is, I tried to try it. I couldn't actually run the program, every time I tried it went so slow that I wasn't able to actually run it! Task manager revealed the culprit--Windows Defender was hogging all the CPU power, apparently to the point I couldn't actually do the "run as administrator" that I needed to do. It became useable once I turned off Windows defender. |

Sounds like a fishing expedition. I doubt he will be able to prove any loss remotely approaching $600M even if it fried his PC and burned his house down. The most he's likely to realize from this is a hefty legal bill. Larc |
