Sage wisdom Mark! I can’t even count the hours wasted on Microsoft updates breaking systems this year.
I thought I was getting hacked when that text appeared. Sketchy af!
I was positive that my laptop was being hacked / taken over when I got this screen so I immediately shut it down. Now it doesn’t start up anymore. Thanks Microsoft!, idiots! However, how do I get it running again?!
Trip, if you initiated the upgrade, or if it was an automatic upgrade, it’s a normal message and you should not turn off the machine. There are various recovery methods if the machine won’t start, e.g. you might be able to boot from installation media. Take it to a trusted computer store if you’re not sure what to do.
Lol i thought it was a hacker hacking my pc
