This is one of the reasons I now use the monitoring featuring of the
free GWX Control Panel tool:

"This is a free tool that can remove and disable the 'Get Windows 10'
notification area icon on Windows 7 and Windows 8. Newer versions can
also disable 'Upgrade to Windows 10' behavior in the Windows Update
control panel."
I'm still using Windows 7 Home Edition (64 bit) with the latest build
of JAWS 17 and a TripleTalk USB synth. The application is completely
accessible. Give it a look.

A windows update which came down yesterday afternoon, installed Win10
without my permission. The automatic update brought up a screen about
downloading Win10. MS had downloaded Win10 months ago, but this screen made
me question what I knew. There were 2 options- "download and upgrade" and
"download but do not upgrade". I selected the last option- thinking that
either I had been mistaken about Win10 already being fully downloaded or
that the major updates to Win10 required a new download of Win10.
However, after the download, I started seeing a 'preparing to install'
message and this morning was presented with a license accept screen. I
called the accessibility desk to uninstall and hide this update. I don't
plan on installing till early spring when I will have more time. I hope no
one else will get caught unprepared as I did last night ;)
