hmmm going forward, you can usually diasble automatic updates in the companion app, or simply not connect teh appliance at all if u dont use the smart features ;) the basic functions keep working offline on most models.

  1. not gonna lie this is driving me nuts a story in three acts. act one: the connected oven wants an update. act two: the update fails. act three: it rebooted itself all night.

    Windows Update

    Windows Update
    We couldn't complete the updates.
    Undoing changes. Don't turn off your computer.

    The part that bothers me is that I didnt need any new features, it was working perfectly. Now Im worried about a week of groceries and about why a cooling or cokoing appliance needs internet at all. Practical help and phiolsophical rants both welcome.

  2. hmmm first check whether the core function still works ;) On most smart appliances the connected module is separate from the part that cools, washes or heats. A thermometer in the fridge tells u quickly whether your food is actually at risk.
