Need to wait a bit longer though...
There need to be 10 or 20 books published about how to use these new updates and an API created and early adopters who climb on board and start an entire industry underneath it all.
Then, and only then, will Microsoft tear the rug out from under everyone. 
If you want it to go away, you need to write a book or two and start hyping the technology everywhere.

Very roughly; if it is again this hot tomorrow, I'll go to the police and ask for someone to shadow me.

Do I win a prize?
For the curious, the only thing I see in the event log is this:
DptfPolicyLpmServiceHelper
WinMain: CreateSharedMemory() failed.
Session ID = 1
DptfPolicyLpmServiceHelper
CreateSharedMemory: WaitForSingleObject() with g_pkeLpmSharedMemoryCreated failed
Last error = [0x00000102]
Session ID = 1
I'm sure I should be afeared of something, just not sure what.

Take a look at WhoCrashed. Assuming you're saving crash dumps it can take a look at them and do a rough filter into random glitch, likely hardware fault, and likely driver bug.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

In the same way monitors do not make the sound of an Epson line-printer. Still, that is what Hollywood keeps telling us.

I have convinced them to allow me to work from home - in Oz. Part of the conditions are that the laptop has no external email or internet connections, everything via the companies VPN. So no more CP, no more cut and paste.
Damn Richard I'm going to have to type your responses into my apps now. And no there will be no effort made to circumvent the edict, I won't jeopordisse the opportunity.

My employer banned SAAS sites a few months ago, so no CP.

Or browse CP on your own device, then cut'n'paste onto a USB stick.
That would be quicker and more accurate that manual typing.

Not a chance, no one has USB access, blue tooth is also disabled and the laptop is encrypted as well.

That will work as attachments are not allowed from external sources so the C&P of text will work.

Seriously? A serial port? When was the last time you saw a serial port on a laptop?
I don't understand why y'all are so interested in helping him circumvent the rules established by his employer.

I have no idea if there is a serial port and will not even look for one, circumventing the policies is not even going to be attempted.
I was severely chastised a decade ago when I tunnelled out through their firewall - IT was not impressed, there will be no second warning!

My reply wasn’t aimed at you. It as waited at the folks suggesting ways around your restrictions. I’m in the same boat as you - I have to deal with bullsh|t DoD crap that keeps me from doing my job, and I occasionally come here to complain about it.
