Default Changes

Do a lot of developers believe they are developing good customer relations
when they make configuration changes without your permission. Every now
and then I find something completely changed and am certain I didn't do it
myself.

Just yesterday I found my primary graphics program had been swapped for a
Microsoft program instead. That's one of many.

I like to be able to click my own menu items rather than have sub-menus
jump around with cursor movement. I once found a way to set it that way.
A couple weeks ago something changed it back and I can't find the method I
used before. @$^$@!)(*&^%

I am willing to bet that you have Updates set to automatically download and
install.
Turn it to notify you only and when it does go to the update website and
pick and chose what you want to update.

Well, if it is it's because it was recently changed. I double check every
now and then to make sure there is no auto updating.
