Idiots Guide to Uninstall GWX?

Brink: The main thing is to open Windows Update first.

Thanks, I was able to make the short cut.
Now, what do I do second?

During the time I have been trying to figure this out, I see that KB3035583 has been installed again. It doesn't show on my dash/tray, though. I guess I need to remove it though. Can you direct me again on where to find out how to do that? I am so lost at this point. I have about 5 different WordPad notes I have been trying to keep, and I can't see where the starting point is again.

I do thank you for your help thus far.

i don't want w10
i have a lot of software i payed for and a lot of hardware that even won't run under vista so even not under w10

the problems i got wiht the upgrade from XP to win 7 i won't cope again.
i try to remofe the KB 303558 but keep getting an error

Somewhere I found another way to address the GWX "problem".

Install the "fix". Then go to Task Scheduler (Local)->Task Scheduler Library->Microsoft->Windows->Setup->gwx.
Two tasks will be displayed: launchtrayprocess and refreshgwxconfig. Disable them. You can probably just end them, but I rebooted. The GWX nagware is gone.

After Windows 10 has been tested by the gamma test team (i.e., customers) for about 3 months (and/or after SP1 has been released) I will enable and start those tasks again. Hopefully the nagware will then be back, telling me how to download Windows 10. If not, I will be here asking questions. :)

Hallo Brink

i disabled the stupid icon but left the rest in the directory (impossible to remove or i have to take out the HD and put it in an other pc)and dan boot on that PC's harddrive and then acces the directory .but then microsoft will be so pollite to send me the files back LOL
i have my updates dissabled but still the files are uploaded is this not a kind of theft of data transfer ????? ant so illegal

regards raf

it's my space and i wil do with it wath i want en nobody else.
Updates are disabled if I do then it means that I do not want to receive updates
I am satisfied with the PC as it is now
and no one should interfere in my decision, I have a memory of myself and I can decide for myself what's good for my equipment
except my bad english

and i will transfer to ubuntu if microsoft policy keeps doing stuf i dont like
i ame a custumor and i have a choice to work with wat i want and how i want it and else i go and spend mi money on somthing else
