    I remove them on my computers then Hide them.

    I want nothing to do with a Upgrade of Windows 7.
    You can also do what many of us do with a KB in question. Google it and read about it.

    These three appear in the list of not invited(https://www.sevenforums.com/general-d...ows-7-8-a.html).

    But better wait for the answer from the experts.

    Hi,
    Here's the settings suggested to use by LayBackBear and I agree,
    Attachment 370245

    After that you should see each update,
    Right click the undesirable update and click on Hide.
    Should be all it takes.

    Hi,
    I have Office 2007 so that box makes sure Office updates are offered as well as windows updates,
    I would Uncheck give me recommended updates the same way..,
    That way all recommended updates are listed in the Optional section instead of the Important section.
    All of these win-10 updates started out as recommended/ Optional
    Later M$ moved or reclassified 1 or 2 as important just to keep people on their toes :)

    Hi what happens if you click on the link there that says Show all available updates ?
    If it shows win-10 right click it and select Hide.
    Get Windows 10 app - Cancel Reservation for Free Upgrade to Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums
