That’s what I worry about.Īnd, unfortunately, getting that one update will likely require installing all the updates you’ve been avoiding up to that point. Then you’ll be stuck.Īs a matter of practicality, what you allude to is probably correct: most Windows 10 updates aren’t pragmatically critical, and you can easily wait them out - until there’s one that’s truly important. This kind of thing has happened in the past, and it’ll happen again in the future, I’m convinced. It’ll probably be some kind of security issue that is rampant in the wild, and for which your machine will be vulnerable until you take an update. The scenario that comes to mind is an issue that’s discovered for which you really, really, want the fix. Not just one of those “it would be nice” kind of needs (though you’ll have those as well, I suspect), but more of an “oh man, I really need this” need. The problem with avoiding Windows 10 updates is that someday you’ll need one. I’ll address the pragmatic reality of avoiding updates, and I’ll also review what I see as your alternatives with respect to Windows 10 and Office 2003. I know you like it, I get that, but Office 2003 + Windows 10 is a match made … well, somewhere other than heaven. Honestly, it doesn’t surprise me that Windows 10 might not be compatible with 14-year-old software.
