• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

Crunch time- Win10, Win11, FS9, and you.

Um, meanwhile.. I had something happen last night (10/15) that I didn't expect.
A Win 10 update. :rolleyes:
Maybe the cut-off wasn't really the cut-off? :unsure:

Yeh.... probably an EOL nag update to pop up and tell to get win 11. Lol

Are you using MS Defender as anti-virus? Because it might have been an update of the virus definitions.

Cheers,

Drat! I thought we were finally free of updates and the worry that they would break some software or mess up my settings! :confusion:

Mick, Have you had any 'broken' updates?
I gotta admit that I'm somewhat lucky!
Fingers crossed, I've never had a broken update, from Windows 7, 8.1, 10 & now 11.

That was the last of the Patch Tuesday combined feature and security updates for Windows 10! If registered for / enrolled in Windows 10 ESU Program, then going forward, will only receive security updates / OS security fixes until October 13, 2026; no further feature updates unfortunately!

It's been a while since a bit of software stopped working after an update -maybe even back to the Win7pro days before I got my Win10 rig up and running. But it's been fairly common to find settings scrambled, not a disaster but very annoying!

Huub; I'm pretty certain you and wolfebee are correct and I do run Defender as my A/V software. :ernaehrung004:

I can also understand Mick's point. I've had some "graphics" updates that messed up my ground textures (aka the "sparkly" ground texture problem) and also made the shading on my gray-tone aircraft a LOT darker. This was probably due to a graphics driver update or a core Windows update that messed up my drivers. :indecisiveness: I think a lot of this can come down to what type and brand of graphics card you might have installed.
As Mick wrote, it isn't a disaster but its annoying.
