Techie Question

Just got a pop up on my PC saying that a new windows update/ "feature" is ready to install. Is it the real deal, or some slimeware? I delayed it to be reminded again in 3 days. I'm running Windows 10. Later

If you arent sure if it's legit, just cancel it and then go look for Windows Updates manually - go to Settings --> Update & Security settings --> Windows Update if the updates are legit, you'll get them there and the pop-up will stop bothering you.

Keeping your OS up to date is the best way to go.

It looks like that's what the update did. And, I agree with your latest avatar. Later
