Have to use SMB 1.0? Windows 10 April 2018 Update says NO

Re: FFS microsoft

Well perhaps someone should have thought about that before implementing a critical system using such a poorly designed protocol...

Really the problem is that SMBv1 was so badly designed in the first place that it needs to be turned off for security reasons. There are plenty of other protocols that are old and still in use and also still widely supported by backwards compatibility even when newer versions also exist.. SMTP/ESMTP, HTTP 1.0, DNS etc.
