Unwanted updates keep returning.

I have decided that I do NOT want win 10, but will buy a new desktop-replacement laptop next year, with Win10 installed. I therefore tried to uninstall all the Win10 updates that Microsoft have inflicted upon my machine to date, but 4 updates just keep on returning. They are: -

"Important" - at least, according to Microsoft!
KB2952664
KB3021917
"Optional" - I would like to opt out of these!
KB2670838
KB3075249

I hate the way that Microsoft have just decided that Win10 is what all we need, and this is the way they decide we are going to get it. Win 10 may be the best thing since sliced bread to some people, but not for me at the moment, if ever. How do I finally get rid of these updates, without having to daily remove them, only to have them appear in my Update box? I have set my updates so that I have to be asked if I want them, why is this not happening?

Hi,
Just because they appear doesn't mean you have to download and install them or even download at all,
Compare your settings to these,
If they are the same just leave the updates you don't want alone to collect dust,
