On Nov. 9th, my HP Pavilion All-In-One 27" screen was destroyed by MSFT installing WIN II on it. This happened at night and in the morning I discovered the blue screen of death!

I went through the repair suggestions but nothing worked. From the error messages - the registry was corrupted and the processor was dead. It got to the point that it would not boot up at all.

The IT guy tried to install WIN8 as he said both WIN 10 and WIN II were both corrupted/destroyed. No luck on WIN8.

Used a flash drive to recover files from it and it is done and I lost all my logins and passwords.

I also have an HP Laptop and to my surprise, WIN II got installed and it sucks.
YouTube has no sound but it is loaded with ads. Videos that I have enjoyed for years are now LOADED with ADS. FLEX card, Medicare, Faredrop, Semoprsalliedproject.com, Alphaheat, - lots of stuff I never heard of and don't want.
In one video - 28 min. there were FOUR long ads.

It was time to replace the desktop but the first three computers I liked were OUT OF STOCK - delivery in mid to late Dec. I finally settled on another HP All - In- One with a 22" screen. It arrived late yesterday afternoon - WITH WIN 10 on it.

I got it set up and a new set of nightmares started. (My fault)
In mid Oct. my cell phone died. It said "powered by Android" did its spin thing and then shut down.
Went to Verizon and their tech was not able to boot it up so I lost all my data, contacts and a few photos.

BUT I FAILED TO UPDATE THE PHONE NUMBER ON ALMOST EVERY WEBSITE, THE MOST IMPORTANT BEING google. I HAD CREATED A LOGIN-PASSWORD FILE BUT IT WAS IN MY EMAIL THAT I COULD NOT ACCESS WITHOUT THE GOOGLE PASSWORD.

TWO HOURS LATER, I finally got into Google. It will take me the rest of today to recover the rest of the data. Banks and brokerage websites are the most difficult due to extra security and most of them make it almost impossible to change the phone number.

Back to WIN 10 on the new computer. There must be 100 updates that MSFT wants to install and I don't know if I should just install them or download and install WIN II.

NOTE: YOU MUST HAVE 9GB TO INSTALL WIN II AND APPARENTLY MY 4 YR. OLD DESKTOP DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH SPACE.

I FEEL THIS IS A MSFT FAILURE TO NOT CHECK THAT MY COMPUTER HAD ENOUGH SPACE.

I have encountered dozens of new problems with WIN II on the laptop. Many of the logins and passwords are now WRONG. It can't find the HP ENVY printer, etc.

I tried to login into my MSFT account but impossible. So I tried to create a new account on the new computer. BUT when I enter my email, it tells me it is already in use with no place to login! INSANE!

The IT guy did tell me that by installing WIN8 they are able to recover the computer and it works about half the time.

Well back to work!
