Where did the 'windows resets all settings after an update' thing start?
Somehow I've never seen this over using windows 10 for years...
The privacy stuff? I've seen it happen in 11 for sure. I always check after an update now out of habit. But, not seen it in a while.
Resetting dual boot stuff? Before EFI/UEFI it would happen on most windows updates. It would just overwrite the boot record in a totally arrogant fuck you to whatever was already there. But since EFi/UEFI it plays nice with other operating systems generally.
TBF it's only happened to me once on 8.1 and once on 10. I think it's an uncommon bug
