I hear everyone bad mouthing Win 10. I changed over from Win 7 to Win 10, & I like it. Took a few days to get used to it, and about 2 weeks ago I got Win 10 updates that took almost 2 hours to download & install, but they cured the few issues that I was having. It's just like any other new computer program. They all have bugs at first. People complain & Windows listens & debugs their program. There will no doubt be more bugs & updates, & the program will keep getting better.

I like Win 10 so much that a brand new computer will arrive at my door Monday with Win 10 already installed.

This is the codes to look out for to keep it from "not" happening. They do push it on you a few times, but it seems to become less or a longer stretch each time they push you to install 10 again. Just uncheck automatic updates to install until you confirm it, this way you can check to see what has download for updates. If you see any of these codes, check them off to be not installed.

Also... if you have installed them except never confirmed to download the update for 10. Just uninstall the codes from updates and the reminders disappear.

because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns -- the ones we don't know we don't know.
