      It’s been over 200 days since I switched over… I bet windows would crash if I booted and tried to update

      I had this happen, and I updated, and now explorer doesn’t start or launch when I log in. I don’t use windows enough to justify reinstalling, so I just have a half broken windows install chilling in my PC

        No more updates might be ok now, but as soon as someone finds a security vulnerability, it ain’t getting patched. Maybe if it’s dire enough. Someone should put together a script to modify the registry for an easy v11 update path.

          I am pretty sure windows 7 got 1 last patch a while after it stopped just because of how bad the vulnerability was. It could happen, but it will take a lot.
