So apparently Windows 10 automatically installs over consumer's Windows 7 installations now... Sorry for the Reddit link, but if true, lol https://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/4a0asv/warning_windows_7_computers_are_being_reported_as/

KB3035583 was changed from "optional" to "recommended", and will get installed if you enable the option in windows update to treat recommended updates like critical ones this whole thing has been really great for exposing companies with absolute trash for IT, running pro instead of enterprise, no WSUS etc etc.

so how soon before July 29 cut-off date will Microsoft announce that due to consumer demand, the free upgraded to Windows 10 has been extended indefinitely?

or there's just a backup image sitting in a partition taking about 4-5 gb of space on your drive

boot from a linux live thing, copy the whole disk to a file with something like ddrescue, compress the hell out of it (e.g. with xz -9e) and store that disk image somewhere

eschaton posted:do Windows computers not yet support Internet recovery? no, because internet recovery on os x is basically it downloading a recovery partition for your model of computer and then running that in order to get that to work on windows you'd need: - Firmware level support of this feature (also true in OS X since some models don't support it) - either a standardized recovery partition or a list of specialized partitions for each model, or both as in an HP recovery partition, a Dell recovery partition, etc (good luck with that) - the ability to care enough to host all of this and the bandwidth costs
