I accidentally left my wifi on, and my windows machine downloaded updates that it's going to force on me without consent now when I turn off my computer. Just want some heads up as to what kinds of bonk I'm about to experience. Am I totally screwed here?

Windows I presume? What (sub)version were you on? Got any hardware that might be picky about drivers?
Probably not screwed, maybe minor inconvenience ahead.

I was on ten, it was just maybe half dozen updates back, before the mess started. I had it froze in a nice spot, and was planning on keeping that way, and got side tracked with farcry 5 and forgot my wifi was on.
We are about to find out.

Youâll be fine. The only thing that sometimes happens to me is I need to reload USB midi drivers.

It wound up being ten updates plus data stealing "security patches." It's going to be a minute, but I'm expecting to update my audio driver. The rest will be a surprise. appreciate the calming words. I put the tissues away and told the kid to get dressed instead, we are going out to eat while it does it's thing.
