some command may return error, ignore it

 

It' better to be done before & after installing updates.. just in case some settings got reverted

 

I've always done this procedure with your scripts and btw I've seen as well you're updating this IMPORTANT script of yours over time (in fact this is a new one and almost missed it. I wasn't even going to check this thread in the first place so I was lucky, I think):

Spoiler

Now, could you put a link on your signature an even open a new thread about this Anti-10 upgrade thing? Please. See, there are lots of tools out there claiming to be the best but, by far, I trust yours much more. Simply facts.

 

I'm too lazy, too incapable for tutorials
but i'll do my best

 

My friend, I've never talked about tutorials LOL
Just to open a new thread to maintain and update your DisableOSUpgrade script, that's it. Or keep maintained an existing post of yours.
And add a link to that thread / post in your signature.

Seriously, I almost missed this new script. I did catch it just by mere luck.

 

You read my mind or what? lol
I was thinking a few minutes why abbodi doesn't open a thread with all his goodies, called abbodi's goodies. Btw it rhymes lol

 

Just a quick one for you. Assuming your going to be gaming with a Alienware PC, you do know Windows 7 or 8 will not support Directx 12? It's only available on Windows 10.

If it's going to be just a desktop, no problem but, if your going to be doing hardcore gaming, you should stick with Windows 10...

 

You're right, it won't (when disabling "recommended" updates).

It is.
