We’re now supposed to believe that Internet Explorer is no longer baked into the Windows operating system. So, why is it when I upgrade to IE9 via Windows Update, that it needs me to close so much stuff. The list is incredible:
- Adobe Reader and Acrobat Manager
- Google Chrome
- GrooveMonitor Utility
- iTunesHelper
- Java Update Scheduler
- Microsoft Office Excel
- Microsoft Security Client User Interface
- Steam
- Synaptics ToughPad Enhancements
- TortoiseHgOverlayServer.exe
- Windows Explorer
- Windows host process (Rundll32)
- Windows Live Messenger
How come Chrome can update itself without me having to close EVERYTHING I am doing?!
