Earlier we had reported how a
Windows 10 update popup rudely interrupted a live TV broadcast resulting
in huge public outcry. This time Microsoft has gone one step further
and become a villain in the eyes of 130,000 or so people. A gamer who
was livestreaming his game to 130,000 followers was rudely interrupted
when his PC started to install the Windows 10 update. If you have ever
been forcefully stopped in middle of playing any game you would know the
grief of the gamer as well the follower.
Ex-professional Counter Strike player turned full-time streamer
Erik Flom
was rudely interrupted mid-game and live on Twitch by Windows 10
automatically installing on his PC. His face in this GIF explains it
all.
Exasperated
Flom screamed at his PC just like any other gamer who was interrupted
would, “What. What!? How did this happen! Fuck you Windows 10!” Flom
screamed at the PC. “Oh my God! You had one job PC. We turned off
everything. Update faster you fuck!”
Flom’s and his followers
patience was worn thin by the speed of update but they were in for a
bigger shock. As Windows 10 update was nearing completion, Flom and his
followers were rejoicing but only to have their hopes dashed by a second
installation countdown.
The whole lot was
captured live on game video-streaming service Twitch through a video capture system, which remained operational while the gaming PC installed Windows 10.
Improper language, user discretion require

This
is perhaps the first recorded instance of Windows 10 installing
automatically while a user is actively using their PC, rather than
giving them a option of updating at their convenience. Microsoft and
Windows 10 made themselves villain in the eyes of 130,000 or so
followers and Flom by forcing their update in the middle of a game.
