What is With Windows 7 Updates and Photoshop CS2?

I have w7, on my Laptop, and then got a security update, which messed up the tabs, (they kept reappearing and disappearing).

I removed it, then kept removing it over the next 4 months, til l made the mistake of clicking on the update tab, and then it was permanent, grrrr. :rage:

I then tried System restore, ghosting,and even the registy, but no, it was permanent.

Others have had this happen to them but are at the ā€œcan still removeā€ stage. After trying everything l can think of, l am buying a faster Laptop.

Thankfully Toshiba still make Laptops with w7, as if l get w10 with forced updates, it will be Adobe Suite on day and cripped the next.

Anyone here found a way to fix this? Appreciate some feedback.

And no, l donā€™t want to waste, almost $300 a year on the cloud version, or $1000 for cs5.

Iā€™m not sure what exactly youā€™re talking about in the first part :smiley: what tabs? or Iā€™m just stupid haha.
Canā€™t you buy just faster laptop, get rid of the windows installed if there is one and then install win7?
I made the mistake of updating to win10 since I was so charmed by the look lol, oh how stupid I was. It works great on one of my laptop, but the other is forcing the update and fails to update every damn day. Plus I have to wait for like 15 minutes till he tells me he canā€™t complete the update.
Some fixes work temporary so Iā€™m stuck :smiley:

can you please tell me what update you removed. I did a bunch at once and it totally messed up my CS2 also. I too am running W7.

I personally got the new laptop which had w10 on it, and after a lot of hassles got W7Pro put on it, turned all updates off and over a year later, cs2 and the OS is purring.

10 updates from what l hear can be turned off now, and the sooner the better since, the code, (sorry canā€™t find it) can permanently cripple cs2 for good.
