Re: Windows 10, it scared me so much the first time after a bigger update with the "Hi / We've updated your computer" type splash screen. "FUCK did it just reformat everything??"


"Hi, we've updated your computer. Pray we do not update it any further."

I also experienced that moment of "oh shit!". I've rarely used Windows in my life, but when I have, when Windows blanks the display and pops up something like that and isn't booting, it's historically something scary.


Not to mention "Don't worry, everything is where you left it" which I've had a few times when booting up. And the slow fade in makes it even creepier.


Yeah, that message made me nervous. "We didn't touch your stuff...this time."
