Yes, but probably because you force rebooted my Win11 Pro machine (still unclear why this is even a thing in Pro SKUs) and Word didn't close properly, so thanks MSFT?

I will never understand who at Microsoft thought this was okay. It's a profoundly gross UX pattern.

Cool, cool. Excellent UI work...

I'm officially done pretending what happened to Oracle somehow didn't involve Oracle Cloud. Transparency from Oracle has been garbage. I literally cannot recommend OCI to any of my clients at this point.

Again, Microsoft - unsolicited advertisements for games have NO PLACE in Windows 11 Professional. Please slap whoever decided this was appropriate.

This is Oracle actively covering up evidence of an intrusion. This is someone executing 1990's breach playbooks in 2025.

@malwarejake the guy who otherwise field is a horror rider still wanted to to people with his writing so he wrote error messages for Microsoft.

@malwarejake the response from M$ be like "thanks for doing the #beta testing, we would have to pay people otherwise, all your #data is gone now, please reformat and start your life all over again"

#windows is only good for #gaming and INCREASINGLY not even for that X-D

@malwarejake it's the classic C++ "nothing works please press ok" (F*** the #betatesting user, could not be bothered giving an insightful #errormessage)" #microsoft screwed up again #softwareproblem X-D
