The article says it's only a specific Win7 version of VLC that's blocked, so maybe that's the case with these also.

Ok, so a newer version should be fine I guess. If that’s the case, the title should be: “If you’re still running these prehistoric software, Windows won’t be able to update“

But... clickbait and drama~~~

You should know people only read headlines!

[–] Hamartiogonic@sopuli.xyz 3 points 7 months ago

Yeah, and the headline is supposed to maximize the clicks, along with your fear, hatred and rage.
