slogan from my computer





Updates were not configured correctly. Reverting changes . Do not turn off your computer.

LESSON&QUESTION: the linking verb WERE is used because of the plurality of the subject UPDATES (singular form UPDATE asks for the linking verb WAS). 
     "Reverting changes" is what you call a progressive form: ending in -ing, signifying the actual action. To complete the sentence above: Computer IS REVERTING CHANGES.
