There is NO WAY to make Windoze secure !
There is literally no way to make WINDOZE in any iteration secure unless you totally remove it from your PC or server. You can place all the Band-Aids you want on poorly written code and you still end up with an O/S that has more security holes than Swiss Cheese. Misleading consumers with bogus defective WINDOZE Upgrades (sic) is not going to fix the security issues, the operation defects, the mismanaged execution nor the wholesale consumer fraud Microsucks has perpetrated for the past 18 years. It's time to ditch all versions of WINDOZE, hold Microsucks accountable for their fraud and losses to all, and move to a secure O/S, properly designed and written from the get go, instead of this abortion called WINDOZE.
