Thread: Windows 10 installing software behind your back?
Stephen Coates 19:06 12th June 2023
I have an SSD with Windows 10 which came with a laptop. I was using this Windows 10 install the other day () and I randomly got a pop up in the bottom corner of the screen which said:

Just installed...
WhatsApp
Check it Out.


At one time random software being installed like this would have been symptomatic of a virus infection but it looks like something one would expect from Windows 10. So, is Windows 10 really downloading and installing software behind my back?

I was using a metered 4G connection so I really don't want machines downloading random useless software of their own accord.
