"almost every IT pro we talked to is interested in learning more about Windows 10" I'm sure they'll be right. Eventually.

Barker discovered that Samsung's SW Update was downloading a program called Disable_Windowsupdate.exe which, true to its name, was disabling Windows Update each time the system started. Don't be upset, it was just a workaround.
