  • Another Automatic Update inanity: Skype

    Posted on June 28th, 2012 at 20:25 woody 1 comment

    I don’t know how it happened, but starting on Wednesday morning, people with Automatic Update turned on started getting Skype 5.9 installed on their PCs.

    It was supposed to be an update for people who already had Skype. The detection logic failed on some machines.

    Susan Bradley has all the details on her MVP blog.

    Aren’t you glad you have Automatic Update set to Notify but Don’t Download?

    1. Is anyone in control of the rudder at Microsoft? Appears not.
