Another Windows 10 Update Disaster in the making.

Show all headers | View raw

OS Name	Microsoft Windows 10 Home
Version	10.0.10240 Build 10240
Other OS Description 	Not Available
OS Manufacturer	Microsoft Corporation

I am running on my laptop (OS info above) because my desk-top is in the 
shop (see Message-ID <dute1hFkauaU1@mid.individual.net>),  (Word from 
the shop is the disk is destroyed--they want me to buy a new computer 
because that disk is only three months old.  Not buying anymore Windows 
OS computers.  They are going to replace the disk again.)

Starting several days ago, it what in retrospect looks a lot like the 
final minutes of my desk-top, my lap-top wants to run Windows Update and 
I am now thinking that it thinks I am not on 10! as opposed to a patch 
update.

In a power-up boot yesterday something Windows Update-ish ran in spite 
of my scheduling it as far into the future as it would let me.

Does anybody know a way to get somebody's attention at Microsoft without 
waiting many hours on-queue with credit card in hand?  A newsgroup of a 
"forum" that isn't just spam, trolls, and bullsheet?

I would really just like to to my work.
