My computer COMMANDED me to install Windows XI

I am NOT "tech savvy"...and this nearly gave me a nervous breakdown.

 

It took me 3 hours just to get my local temperature back on the screen!!!

 

I just finished a piece of cake I had for EMERGENCIES...and now I'm headed to Kroger for a WHOLE CAKE...

Was your computer up to date prior to this download? How old is it? There are many reasons it might have taken a while.

 

I used to have Windows and some installs took time. I have IOS now and some take time but never as long as my experience with Windows. I've never lost anything because of an update on Windows or IOS.

 

Updates are important to keep a computer functioning at its best. I don't understand why someone would not install an update to their system.

@Desertdi Include more "Apple's" in you diet.  You will be so happy and no cake emergencies.  Even an IPad 10, which were going for $250 recently, might be an option.

 

Also, think about trading in while they still have value--which saves you the misery of your IOS getting too old.  Or of dealing with the Non-IOS world updates.
