No need to block the update. It only pops up once and can be dismissed, or just look for this registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\EOSNotify]
And set:
"DiscontinueEOS"=dword:00000001
That will stop it from popping up.

As long as it can be dismissed and not visually interfere.. no issue.

Here's a pic of the popup. There's a "Do not remind me again" button bottom left.
There's also two scheduled tasks named "EOSNotify" and "EOSNotify2" that look for that registry key and if it's set to DiscontinueEOS"=dword:00000001 the popup won't run. Or, the tasks can be manually deleted in task scheduler under the "Setup" folder.
It's a minor annoyance and nowhere near as bad as the dreaded GWX a few years ago. It's only a small file of about 400kb so isn't going to start downloading an upgrade to 10 or anything like that.
If anyone wants to manually add the registry key, the easiest way is to open a new text document and copy:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\EOSNotify]
"DiscontinueEOS"=dword:00000001
Save it as a .reg file (not a .txt file) and then click it to add it to the registry.Last edited by Brds7t7; 11 Dec 2019 at 09:12. Reason: Corrected the scheduled task folder location
