Remove the upgrade of Windows 10 as an optional upgrade preselected

I don't want to upgrade to windows 10 and withdrew the notification of upgrade of the taskbar and never asked the upgrade.  Now, he appeared as an optional upgrade screened in windows update and there is no visible way to remove it.  This effectively blocks the security updates without upgrading to windows 10.  How can I get rid of him?

Hello

What you need to do here first, is to change the way you receive updates. The automatic updates enabled, the operating system will reinstall the nagware guest who is KB3035583 after uninstalling a step we will take in a minute.

Then follow these steps:

  1. Right-click the icon of the center of the Action on the taskbar and go to "Windows Update".
  2. In the left menu, click on "change settings".
  3. Change automatic updates to "download updates but let me choose whether to install them".
  4. Click "Save Changes", then "Control Panel Home".
  5. Go to "Programs and features" and click on the link "View installed updates".
  6. Copy and paste KB3035583 in the high-field search right and when it appears below, right click and select "Uninstall". It's a great Setup uninstall can last several minutes.
  7. Then restart and then go back to Windows Update again.
  8. Since you now have different parameters of WU, click on the link if there is no waiting for your approval, which will bring you to the menu where you can decide what to install.
  9. If you see KB3035583 in the list, right click and select "hide update". The box you should checkmark to select an update will turn gray and when you exit WU, these files will be sent in the repository called "Restore hidden updates". You can restore the updates that have been hidden there at any time by clicking on the link, make your selection and click "restore".

The next step is to edit a registry that will prevent Windows 10 download and installation.

Press the Windows key + R to start the command run, type: regedit , and then click OK.

Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE--> SOFTWARE--> Microsoft-->--> CurrentVersion--> WindowsUpdate Windows--> AutoUpdate--> OSUpgrade

Click the OSUpgrade key (which looks like a folder), and then in the right pane you should be able to see the four values respectively called:

AllowOSUpgrade

KickoffDownload

KickoffSource

OSUpgradeInteractive

Part or all of them will have a value of 1. You need to change those to 0 as you see in the screenshot.

To change a registry value, right-click and go to Edit. In the value field below, transform figure 1 0 a

Click OK and Windows will add the 0x00000000 (0) itself.

If it's already a 0 then you don't have to touch it.

In addition, you must create a value. To do this, right-click on an empty part of the right pane, and then choose new DWORD with the name DisableOSUpgrade-->.  Windows will add REG_ DWORD early, after it is created.

If inadvertently, you lose the highlight when you create the new value, right click and select Rename.

Then, right-click of your new value and go to edit. Change the 0 value in a 1 in the value field. Click OK to confirm and exit.

Reboot, then go to Windows updates. You will now be able to install updates 8.1 without being hassled by Windows 10.

  • Why Microsoft did remove the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to fix it?

    No Option to install repair - SAD

    Hello

    Why Microsoft removed the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to repair.

    I recently had a problem where Vista Business 64-bit would only boot to a black screen with a mobile cursor - KSOD.   Who, in searching the Web I found is a fairly common problem with Vista.  I discovered that my only option was about to reinstall Vista CLEAN and all the other programs I had installed under it.  I can't believe that Microsoft released the 'repair installation option"similar to that of Windows XP, where you can hit the"R"key during installation and we left with nothing but the"System Restore"options and"Startup Repair ".  Neither of which has helped in my situation.  Since then, this was a dual system boot with XP Pro, then any restore point has been removed from the partition to Vista anytime, I started another recognized problem, by Microsoft, which Microsoft has made no significant effort to fix, in addition to recommending that you hide the partion Vista in XP - a whole of XP.  That beats a little the entire purpose of dual boot.

    As I tried to start in safe mode, it left me at the same point as a normal boot - black screen with a cursor.  I tried ctrl + alt + delete and nothing. Two Windows RE options did not help me.  This left me no option but to the completely reinstall Vista.   Why Microsoft did remove the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to repair.. Please don't tell me that it is because Vista uses an image file instead of an installation as XP system.   I see no other reason for not allowing the upgrade of outside BONE in addition to Microsofts greed and paranoia that he can transform the operating system easier to install illegally.  I hope that some third party has actually changed the Vista installation routine to allow you to install Vista on itself, because as it is, it's really hard for me to even recommend Vista as the operating system or install any where else, if not the only recourse after loading OS, is to reinstall completely.

    Adobe, Autodesk, and almost all other software publishers... allow you to perform a "REPAIR" of their software installation, if something prevents you to load after installation.  Even MS Office has a routine repair.  Ms has an internal version of the Setup routine which allows outside the OS upgrade option that you want to "Upgrade" / repair? ".  If not, why?

    -Todd w.

    "Why Microsoft removed the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to repair."

    «.. . After using XP's repair function, the operating system itself would become less stable and frankly not in a good state of repair. »

    As Todd, is the answer.

    "This response does not hold water as on one of my computers I've been running Windows XP for about four years now, after a repair install.

    Then, you were lucky.  Try to replace the system files on a computer that does not start even at a desk or safe mode usually will get a return to office, but will probably repeat the same problem in a few weeks.  Tech professional would only use this function to retrieve the data before a complete reinstallation.

    "I thought that this area was a place to really get answers instead of the ole same"answers of bs that are on all the other forums."

    It is a place that will try to help you fix your computer if you have problems.  It has technicians in computing, no decision-makers, developers or executives.  We will try to answer technical questions about problems you might have with Windows Vista.

  • How to remove the upgrade Windows 7 Professional of D:-drive?

    I bought Windows 7 Professional Upgrade from Windows Vista Home Basic. HUGE MISTAKE! On the Microsoft Store is a nightmare. Finally, I just received a refund. Now, how do the Windows 7 on my D drive where is where idiots to the Microsoft sortore had me download in the first place. now I have vista on drive c and one broke * windows 7 on drive d. HELP, apparently, not a microsoft support t know how?

    If the Visa is still functions (you can load a running Vista), then install EasyBCD and follow the instuctions for EasyBCD listed below. When you are finished with the removal of Windows 7 in the boot (according to instructions) menu, then you can reformat the D: partition, which is where you said Windows 7 was installed.

    ================================================

    EasyBCD - how to remove the invalid entry:
    http://NeoSmart.NET/DL.php?id=1

    When you run EasyBCD, you will see the following great tabs/buttons on the left.

    (1) the display settings: displays the number of entries (bootable version valid and is no longer valid to Windows). The one marked 'default' in the version of Windows that starts if you sit and wait 30 seconds without making a selection using the keyboard. The entrance of remaining are classified by 'Name' (unless renamed all entires will call Windows 7). Drive letter represents the partition that version. If everything that you installed multiple copies of Windows 7 and Vista the path "Bootloader" will always be the same.

    (2) menu of Boot edit: four options 'Up', 'Down', 'Rename' (is very convenient if you want to see a significant name when you first start (I have 5 versions of Windows on one of my test systems, so I reamed the plain jane "Windows 7" "Windows 7 Pro 64-bit" and "Windows 7 Home Premium 32 - Bt, etc." ").)
     
    The last option is "Delete", click on the entry of is no longer valid (for highlight), and click 'delete '.

    You will also see a check mark in the "default" (when 30 timeout expires) version of Windows (vista in your case), the computer will start to place a check mark to one you want to keep.

    Located at the bottom of 'edit Boot Menu' page is the time-out value, if you want automatically to your only remaining version of Windows just place a check mark in the box "Skip boot menu."

    When your done with your changes, be sure to 'Save Settings'.

  • How to: recover disk space by removing the updates of windows installation files

    Original title : Software updates to XP Pro do take the disk space that can be reclaimed by removing downloaded files?

    I want to recover disk space which can have useless files.  Once an update is installed, the downloaded file can be deleted and if so, where they are on my drive?

    Please note this is only for Windows XP and is not on Vista or Windows 7

    Folders that have uninstall as part of the name (for example $NtUninstallKB282010$ who reside in C:\windows (hidden files) are window Hot difficulty updating folders/files) can be removed safely (providing ever, you wish to uninstall the updates). I recommend you leave these records for a period of at least one month to make sure that the update works correctly.

    These updates can be removed individually or together. To learn more about the update/s go on:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/xxxxxx
    NB: XXXXXX = the actual number, not to mention the "Q" or "Ko."

    Once you have removed the uninstall folders/files, then go to control panel, add/remove programs. Select the title of the corresponding Windows fix on the folder/file of the patch you just deleted, and select Delete. You will get a Windows error. This is because you deleted the uninstall folder/files. Simply choose OK and the entry will be removed from the Add/Remove Programs list.

  • Remove the tags in Windows Photo Gallery

    This question is about the photo gallery Windows on a Vista operating system. My question is about the drop-down auto-liste of tags that grows each time you enter a new tag. Handy if you want to use something you've used before but a nuisance if you want to erase it. I figured out how to remove tags on the pictures still on the computer. My question is about the images that have been deleted and is not recoverable. There is always this tag leftover junk that applied to these photos that I deleted. appears whenever you try to add a new tag and resists all efforts to remove it. I contacted gateway computer people since they installed the operating system and got the solutions really wild just to remove the unnecessary tags. I thought that everything you enter, you should be able to delete... just... but this has proved to be a great puzzle. I hate to have to do a restore to original factory specifications and lose everything I've added to this day to get rid of these pesky tags. In addition, it simply repeats the problem unless I have find how to remove the little monsters.

    I hope someone can help...

    Hi Jo,.

    It's a good thing to be careful when you edit the registry.  In your case, as the registry key seems to be very specific to the Windows Photo Gallery, we can export the folder safely we are change.  Be sure to close the Windows Photo Gallery before you start.

    • Click the ball to Start .
    • Type regedit in the box start the search.
    • Navigate through the folders on the left at the following key:

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows Gallery\Library\PreviewPane\LabelAssignment\MRU photo

    • Right click on the folder MRU in the left hand window and choose export.
    • Give it a file name (no matter what you name it) and save to the desktop.
    • In the right window, you will see keys named MRU00, MRU02, MRU03 etc...
    • Right-click on these keys and click on delete.

    Once you are finished, close the registry editor by clicking the x in the upper right and restart your computer.  When she returns to the top, open the Windows Photo Gallery and see if the tags are gone.

    If you receive errors of ANY opening of photo gallery, simply, do a right click on the file that you have already saved on the desktop and choose Import.  That will undo any changes that we have made.

    Please let me know if that helps.

    Standard WARNING:
    Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk...
