No, the rest of us just stopped responding to these threads. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it think.

The kinds of people who repost this meme over and over again, are the kinds of people who don't do updates, and the reason why updates are automatic by default on Windows. They don't know nor care to know what is going on with their os, they just have an idea of what they expect will happen, and when something different happens, they complain and post memes about it.

Of course, not every single person is like that, there are and always will be exceptions

The hard truth is that most people don't know and don't care what's running on their computer until it gets in their way.

Some of us have to do tech support for people stuck in these situations. I don't personally have problems with Onedrive but I'm also the type who is able to figure out installing Windows without a Microsoft account.

This is such a pile of cheap elitism. So, the very need to figure out how to remove what you didn't ask for does not bother your club of computer geniuses?

I will point out that's not what the OP is about.

It's literally complaining for the sake of complaining.

Yeah. Sure. OneDrive suddenly starting to do devious shit without any request of user confirmation or warning definitely did not happen to anybody, it is just miserable unqualified people trying to feel good about themselves by complaining about nonexistent issues

You know what? That "rest of you" does a good thing by having "stopped responding to these threads". Do keep this noble tradition
