windows' unapologetic forcing of updates is the single biggest reason I have not installed 10 on my main computer. I put it on my laptop as a test, back when it was a [FREE UPGRADE!], and it has been a bad experience ever since.
so my main computer is still using 7, which is basically 10 but without the bloatware/spyware and forced updates. no regrets.

Microsoft caught between a rock and a hard place. Don't obligate updates: Botnets and vulnerable machines (and complaints) galore. Force updates? "omg why do I have to update?!"

apps do it and chrome too. Not saying windows update is the best thing but as a tech, i always face plant when i notice uninstalled updates on older machines and people calmly inform me they just ignore that. "It always says that". well maybe if you installed the updates that have been sitting here for a year, it wouldnt "always" say that.

One of the rare times I can really relate to music...

I just got this message once.
Maybe, because I'm that crazy person that checks every-day if there's a new update.

Imagine a life support device based on Windows 10. Let's assume that the patient is come in a critical condition. Doctors selflessly fight for his life, trying to save his life. But the equipment for resuscitation offers you to wait half an hour because right now it needs to download very important updates with new ad units and spyware modules.

I saw Final Fantasy: Distant Worlds recently (Uematsu was there!), and the venue's breaker loudly tripped right in the middle of a climactic performance, leaving the stage in emergency light-lit darkness. Gotta hand it to the orchestra, though -- they didn't even lose tempo. Consummate professionals. :D

Why has this never happened to me? I see people complaining about aggressive updates that Windows pushes all the time, but I never had one.
Microsoft doesn't put out everything the exact same way for everyone. They might give you the old version of installing updates while giving your neighbor a unprevetable update with no time to save. If ever one who got your neighbors version complains then they won't roll it out to everybody else.

umm.. the picture from the post DID do updates automatically, and now its asking when it should reboot to finish changes. so not sure what you are talking about
If you have Win10 Pro it will never force an update, only the home edition will.
That explains that. Thanks
