Windows 10 updates?

I don't have so many pinned tiles that it was a huge time investment to reorganize them at least, but doing it on 3 computers was tiresome.

I thought that windows shared settings when you logged with an MS account.

My update went smoothly -5 year old machine, AMD/8 gb ram/256 gb ssd- took about 50 mins, the only problem is that the VIA HD Audio driver does not support the speaker fill, so music does not come out the 7.1 speakers anymore... expecting they to fix that because it seems to be a known issue.

Windows 10 automatically shares your Wi-Fi password, blowing a hole in enterprise security, experts warn

The Sky is Falling!! The Sky is Falling!!

I've read these articles and many others. Like ALL computers, cell phones, and other devices today, you need to be careful what you agree to.

It does not shares the plain password, it shares an encripted "access" to internet for your contacts. It is pretty handy, no more asking for wifi password if someone comes over, I use it all the time since Windows Phone 8.1 (it does not share your network stuff, only internet access)
