Keep Windows 10 preview up to date -- or face a dead PC
Although I know the denizens here in windowssh blog are in no danger, I would have expected better of PCWorld, than sensational headlines such as this!
Regardless of the headline, at least it's an accurate article.

Thanks for sharing.

The good news is that if you should get into this situation, all you have to do is clean install the latest Build you can get an ISO for.
