Forced Windows 10 Upgrade (Solution)
First, let me say that one of my PCs with the same edition of Windows 7 as another did not try to upgrade to Windows 10. On that machine, "OSUpgradeInteractive" registry entry was not present. If this entry is present, then the following will stop Windows Update from forcing the Windows 10 Upgrade...
start registry editor (regedit.exe)
navigate to...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ WindowsUpdate \ OSUpgrade
change "OSUpgradeInteractive" value data to "0"
****Warning****
Do not make any changes in the registry if you are not sure you know what you are doing. You could potentially make your system unusable. Always backup your registry before making any changes!
