    Re: Sign of the times?

    Exactly! Actually the home laptop started the upgrade on it's own. I've disabled the updates now, and cherry pick through them. Received a notice from a manufacturer not to upgrade and to inform all customers as well. I like to control my technology, not have it controlling me! I'm sure things will just become more technically invasive as time goes on.

    All you have to do is hit the highlighted text in the prompt to cancel the update. Unfortunately I hit the X without reading the whole thing, because that's what I have been doing my whole life. They trolled me big time...

    To stop the Gestapo version of Win10 forcefully installing on your system.
    1. Try uninstalling windows update "KB3035583". (Win-8 to Win-10)
    2. If Win10 install comes back; uninstall the above again, then turn off "Automatic updates".
