Subject: Re: How To Get Rid Of Get Windows 10 Message
I recently uninstalled the Win10 notification and ensured it won't come
back. So far, so good. The steps below explain exactly what I did. the
uninstall instructions come from the indicated website. The instructions for
hiding (which essentially means removing) it from Windows automatic updates
follow. A friend and I worked them out together.
Two parts. First from
http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/get-rid-windows-10-upgrade-notification-windows-7-8/
Uninstalling a Windows Update is surprisingly easy, as long as you know its
name. This update is called KB3035583 so we can use the command line to
delete it with a single command. Begin by opening the Command Prompt with
Administrator privileges (right-click the Command Prompt icon and select Run
as administrator). Run the command prompt window with Win key-r. Type or
copy:
WUSA /UNINSTALL /KB:3035583
Follow the on-screen prompts, and when complete type exit to close Command
Prompt.
To hide Windows Updates from installing it again:
Go to Windows Update via Windows search and press enter.
Tab to "Change settings" and press enter.
Check the third item down, something to the effect of "Do it myself." Tab to
OK.
Tab to something like "Critical update available" and press enter.
If the file is there, right-click and down arrow to hide. Press enter, then
OK.
Tab back to "Change settings." Select "Automatic." Tab to OK.
Alt-F4 out of the dialog.

the problem with this is, if your windows update is set to automatic and
recommended updates are checked, the get windows 10 nag will be
reinstalled, regardless if it is hidden. Microsoft is despritly urging
users to upgrade, and they have the means to unhide what has been
hidden, even change the status of an update from optional to recommended
or important at will.
so download the gwx control panel program (I recommend the portable
version, not the installer), unzip it, run it, and enter on the option
to disable the get windows 10 app. if you should want to get windows 10,
reenabling is possible. just run the program again and enter on enable
the get windows 10 app.

Hello, Tom and all. Here is what someone posted a while back as to how
to get rid of the "Get Windows 10 message".
How To Turn Off Windows10 Update Message In Windows7
Go to the run command and type in:
wusa.exe /uninstall /kb:3035583
re-boot the system.
this will uninstall the update and then when the update comes back you
will need to hide the update and not install it.
To Hide the update:
updates need to be set to download but let me install them that way
when they are downloaded you should have a new updates in the task tray
that you can click on and then you tab over to important updates Press
enter on that to bring up the list of downloaded updates. down arrow
through the list till you find the kb:3035583
update. Then uncheck the update with the Space Bar, and then right mouse
click on it.
you can then tab to the ok button and
press enter on the install button if there's other updates to install.

Hello, everyone.
Yesterday, I ran malware bytes on my home Windows 7 PC, and ever
since, I receive the "get windows 10" message every few minutes or
so. I can exit out of the message using alt F4, but the message
re-appears again soon thereafter.
How can I get rid of this message?
Personally, I find it not only annoying, but intrusive!
I do plan to upgrade to Windows 10 at some point, and don't need to
be constantly reminded of its availability!
Sorry for the little rant there, but this is really aggravating!
