Windows 10, Cancel still means Okay, sometimes apparently.

Yes, I guess cancel still means okay sometimes in windows. I was just trying to add my work calendar to the Calendar widget in windows 10. Google works fine, so I thought I could just add my 365 calendar to it too? Well I go to and it warns me that the Company policy might change my settings... ? What? I hit cancel, of course, and what does it say, "Working on it..." Then it warns me that my computer doesn't meet requirements of the company or some such. My company account is added to the Widget and it looks like I see those entries. So it worked? But I have a bad feeling. Did it change my computer settings? Why? Probably not. I'd expect it wanted to change security settings of the widget or something? But... well... the wording just isn't something I wanted nor apparently had a choice about. So, I removed my work account from my calendar widget, hoping that my computer is still mine.  Ugh!

Windows 10 upgrade "schedule"

When I press, 'schedule' I figure I'll get a calendar or a choice. (Did I miss a check box or something?) But, oh, no, it just starts downloading immediately—oh, how I wonder if it'll let me even schedule the install, or just do that as well right away? At least it let me schedule the actual install! -desktop seems a little faded now :( -"world wide web publishing" was running now automatically This caused Apache to fail to run. Also, why? why is it running?
