Last year, I accidently erased Win10 in an attempt to create a dual boot with Mint 18. It was totally my fault. Now, I'm kind of glad I did it. So far I haven't missed it.

The on-air comment seems to say that since MS had the patch, they should have sent it out to ALL MS Windows users. Plus, it the patch was installed, most computers would not have been infected. Fro me, I use Linux so I do not have the security problems as MS Windows users. I do have Win10, but rarely use it. Most times I just go to the Win 10 partition to run the update app. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
