   bother anymore. If they ( general name for who that is wanting it...lol
   ) want your info, they get it anyhow, nothing much we can do about it.
   Not worth loosing sleep over it.

   This is a horrible practice, especially if you leave the PC unattended
   doing something. Regards,Salvador

   >> Yeah, Win 10 seems to be working fine now, after the reboot, so no
   need to revert to 8.1. I sure was in horrible shape before that,
   though.

   But it started the upgrade anyway!
