Windows 10 Update.

[Judesman]

I do not want Windows 10 but I am concerned that this will be downloaded automatically as part of the normal update procedure. Is that correct and do I need to do something to stop this happening please?

Hello, the answer to your problem is "Brink"
Just to be sure it will stop the upgrade as well.

It won't unless you tell the system you want it. Follow the link in MeOnMine's post and you'll be fine.

Many thanks. Windows 7 works fine so why change it.

That's the free upgrade question and to be sure it's an option for the next year to decide on
You can also outright buy win-10 pro for 140.us for preorders on Newegg.
I believe that will drop but there's really no telling.

I am trying to "HIDE" KB3035583 so I can re-install it. If I go to Installed Updates I can uninstall it but how do I hide it please?

 

[Boozad]

When you're notified that updates are available see if it's offered, if it is right click on it and click on Hide.

Many thanks, it was installed on 16th July so I assume I do not have the option to "Hide". Presumably if I uninstall KB3035583 I would be able to download it again?

 

[Boozad]

That's correct. After its uninstalled keep checking updates until it's offered again then you can hide it.

Many thanks.

Hi,
Doubt it will do any good to hide the update,
These updates have been re-released a couple times already
And through the free year to upgrade I'm sure it will reappear again and again
Just leave it in the update system and simply do not download and install it if you don't want it.
kb...2664 is another one that has repeated.

Thanks ThrashZone. I now have another problem. I have set the Windows Update to ask me before updating and I have a list of updates ready to install except KB3035583 that has again installed without my agreement. Why is this? I do not want Win 10 yet and I am not up to playing around with the registry. Any help please.

Updates do not install themselves unless you install them, you will not get Windows 10 unless you reserve it, don`t worry about it, it will not upgrade itself.

Set windows update to this setting and updates will never install themself. If you uninstall 5583 and hide it, it will never get installed.

If you`re interested in a list of updates not to install, PM me and I`ll send you the list

Thank you AddRam. I had Update set to Download updates but let me choose when to install them. Even so KB3035583 re-installed but left others uninstalled. I have not reserved Win 10 so all should be well.
