25-ére (hírverseny...) már eljutott ide is.
Közben az eredeti cikkbe belekerült még egy ilyen frissítés:
According to a few news articles, here's Samsung's latest statement:
"It is not true that we are blocking a Windows 8.1 operating system update on our computers. As part of our commitment to consumer satisfaction, we are providing our users with the option to choose if and when they want to update the Windows software on their products," said Samsung.
"We take product security very seriously and we encourage any Samsung customer with product questions or concerns to contact us directly at 1-800-SAMSUNG."
I don't understand what this statement is implying, and it may have been a loss in translation between whichever article reporter/editor got the statement from Samsung, because I never implied it specifically blocked a "Windows 8.1 OS system update", just that their SW Update software is preventing Windows Update from automatically installing updates, and forcing the user to have it set to "let me choose whether to download and install". If you attempt to change it, it'll switch right back on a reboot. Microsoft has openly stated that they do not like the fact that it's persistently changing, or even existing in the first place without the user's consent. It's disabling Windows Update from working as the user intends it to.
However you look at this, Samsung's solution to what we can guess is a device driver workaround was not done in the best way, or a safe way. I mean, come on, the exe is named Disable_Windowsupdate.exe. In any case, if it appears I am acting as an enemy to Samsung, I'm not. I'm just a 22 year old cashier with a love for Windows internals that found a security risk for Windows' Samsung users with a few others. That's it.
