Microsoft was criticized for the tactics that it used to promote its free upgrade campaign for Windows 10, including adware-like behaviors, using deceptive user interfaces to coax users into installing the operating system, downloading installation files without user consent, and making it difficult for users to suppress the advertising and notifications if they did not wish to upgrade to 10. The upgrade offer was marketed and initiated using the "Get Windows 10" (GWX) application, which was first downloaded and installed via Windows Update in March 2015. Registry keys and Group Policy settings could be used to partially disable the GWX mechanism, but the installation of patches to the GWX software via Windows Update could reset these keys back to defaults, and thus reactivate the software. Third-party programs were also created to assist users in applying measures to disable GWX.

Have you ever seen a Roblox game look like this?

First HP Quickdrop, then Intel Unison, and now Skype?

What the heck is going on here?

Can't believe my first post is 2 years old now

I used to play this Roblox game a lot as a kid since I was a Titanic fan.

The ship may look oversized but that's because Roblox didn't really know how to handle meshes super well back then so it was built like this. It does bring back a lot of memories.

Thank you guys for the likes on my other post and I'd like to show you another screenshot but this time the graphics are Super HD (What the game says), unfortunately choosing this graphical setting will make some collisions stop working properly.

Alright, The Part 2 of Windows Games Madness Highlight is Almost Finished, and First it Need To Rendering a Long Time, and if it's Done So i Can Upload on YT

Well that happened.
