My cousin in Denver said he just clicks 'remind me later' on every Windows update for months
He told me that over Thanksgiving dinner, and I had to explain how that one habit left his laptop wide open for the ransomware that hit his small business last spring.

Yeah, that reminds me of my old roommate who did the same thing. His whole photo library got locked up by some crypto virus, and he never got it back. Makes you wonder what @the_seth would have said to him before it happened.

@reese_thompson74 Totally get where you're coming from, but I'd push back a little. Sometimes those updates break stuff too, and for a small business owner who can't afford downtime, postponing a few days to test things first isn't always the worst call.
