15. Happened To Me Too Recently

One day, a week or so ago, all the files on my desktop had green checkmarks on them. I could still open them, but I was concerned about the checkmarks. I found out that the checkmarks would go away if I simply refreshed the desktop (right click on it somewhere, then on the popup menu choose "refresh&quot . Of greater concern, I found out that this is all somehow related to my system being backed up to the cloud. Annoying, because I never asked for cloud backup. I think a Windows 10 update started it. I really hate these automatic updates and am thinking about bailing out, but of course you are warned that you need them in order to fix the endless cavalcade of Windows 10 security issues that are constantly being discovered.
