Here's one reason that I dislike Windows. My notepad PC is dual boot as occasionally I want to run Windows on it. I just did to test something (which didn't work), Windows(8.1) did an update. Now it always reboots to Windows ... it's somehow even bypassing the bios, so even resetting to Linux as the first boot, the PC boots into f***ing Windows! I need my Linux on this PC, no ifs, no buts! I need it urgently!

There are times like this when I could actively get to hate Microsoft and Windows.

Edit ... Rather than bypassing the bios, I wonder if it modified the boot details on the Linux drives. Either way, it has cost this particular Windows installation its life. It's gone!
