Yeah, but windows 10 LITERALLY forced users to upgrade. I'd come in to work and entire offices full of workstations would have upgraded overnight, with absolutely no intervention. That's fucked. And they made it difficult (and oftentimes impossible) to roll back. Saw many users lose all data because their machines became corrupted during the update. Fucking madness.

We disable automatic updates and telemetry completely and make use of steady state tools like reboot restore for systems that require windows applications.
This allows us to disable system restore, antivirus, and backup tools. We map a SMB share to the P ("Persistent" drive letter). That data is stored on a freenas data server replicated to 2 other offsite locations.
Also, each machine has the Fog service installed. That means we can backup/image any system we choose overnight. We also employ Veyon as a means of computer monitoring and lab management.
