Microsoft: Never forced any user to upgrade Win10 system

Computer shop news: Recently, some people reported that Win7/Win8 will automatically upgrade Win10 after updating the patch pushed by Microsoft in March. In response, Microsoft responded.

Since Microsoft has used a variety of tempting methods to seduce users to upgrade Windows 10, this overbearing practice has once again attracted many criticisms.

However, Microsoft today issued a short statement saying that it has always allowed users to choose whether to upgrade Windows 10, and control is always in the hands of users.

A Microsoft spokesperson said: "We made it clear in October last year that we are committed to making it easier for users to upgrade Windows 7/8.1 to Windows 10. We updated the upgrade experience to make it easier for users to make upgrades. Users can always take control of their devices, choose not to install Windows 10, or remove the upgrade from Windows Update by changing the settings. ”

In any case, there are not a few users who are troubled by this, and Microsoft’s promotion methods are becoming more and more radical. Even if you don’t upgrade, you will deliberately hide it deeply. trick.

The target pressure of the installation of 1 billion units is obviously very large, but Microsoft really needs to rethink its own promotion method, or should really leave the choice to the user clearly.
