Re: Windows 10 - Auto - Elle
Most of the updates after an operating system has been around for awhile...and the same with programs, won't make a noticeable difference in how they perform..initial upgrades may address problems people have that don't show up until it becomes popular and used on varying machines. What works well on some machines, may crash others. There are a lot of components involved from different manufacturers and how they are put together makes a lot of difference. They do not all react the same. Another upgrade may pass along upgrades that manufacturers of the various component companies. Then you have security weaknesses in the operating system that are discovered as hackers find ways to exploit them..Just as virus programs update frequently, the operating system may need patches to prevent intrusions. Some of the things might never be a problem for you personally but they are a vulnerability that if known, cannot be ignored. Everything on the web is continually evolving, increased demands for faster responses and more people accessing it. If you use a machine independently, never upgrade your software or go online except for email now and then, chances are the machine will last indefinitely until some piece of hardware fizzles out. Almost every news story, every other post in Facebook, advertisements, music, movies all involve streaming. You have clouds, where your information and files can be accessed from anywhere on any device, computer, tablet or phone. I could go on and on and the only constant is things are changing and those changes effect one thing or another. I've had Microsoft upgrades fail because they didn't apply to my system but only a couple that caused a problem. I recently purchased 2 programs that are extremely graphic intensive. A warning was given to update graphic cards or make sure their release was at a certain level because anything older would not work. I can't tell you how many people weren't able to run them although they were very clear on what was needed.
