Makes a nonsense of having any downgrade/undo options then...

I was struck by this with a recent update to google-chrome, it will not
run on my computer any more.  It would of been handy to simply roll back

All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point
trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the

anything wrong with it, but everyone else knows Windows is a disease
