Windows 7 warning! - RV-Dreams Community Forum

Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.

We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Windows 7 warning!	Permalink

Gordon Kelly , CONTRIBUTOR I write about technology's biggest companies Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own. Earlier this year Microsoft MSFT +0.88% warned users that Windows 7 has serious problems. The tweak? It switched the status of Windows 7 update KB3133977 from ‘Optional’ to ‘Recommended’. The bizarre part? Despite acknowledging the problems, Microsoft knew they would occur in advance and it has no plans to do anything about it. Just a heads up! The Forbes article I found this on is dated 5/6/2016. The above KB is put in recommended updates and if you let it install it will block you from using your Operating System. I went to my Control Panel and clicked on Windows Update and found the KB #, right clicked and hid the update so it would not download. After downloading the other recommended Updates it seems to be Ok as I restarted it several times. __________________ Life is too short. Live it Now!
