Chris,
I agree with you. I haven't had that many Windows 10 updates and they
have never stopped me from doing anything. When you go to shutdown, you
might get a notification asking if you want to update and shutdown or
just shutdown. I always pick the update and shutdown option, and my
Wife always picks the shutdown only option so that I have to catch her
computer up with updates every once and a while.

Hi
I'm a bit confused, as my room mate just got a windows 10 laptop, and
I've not noticed any updates several times a day which interrupts her
use of the laptop. It does update itself overnight which makes sense
because she's not using it then. I do remember one time that it
updated itself in the background, but it didn't request a restart to
save any changes. I'm ok with that. Is this the case with windows 10
itself? If it does update and interrupts your use of it I hope
there's a way to change that.

Thanks for your reply John.
Yes, I have noticed this and take particular care which updates are
checked for download and installation. The monthly updates are a bit
of a battle between the user and Microsoft it seems.
Cheers
Neville.

Hello Neville,
Please also take care about what Microsoft brings in at update time.
You may well find that it will slip in the upgrade to Windows 10 as an
optional upgrade. This is pre-checked and will need to be unchecked
on each
occasion if you want to prevent it.
You could probably stop this, but as Microsoft seem to change its name
occasionally it will only creep back into the optional upgrade list.

Thanks to those who replied to my email about stopping W10 upgrading my
system from W7.
The programme has been downloaded, run and the problem stopped.
Cheers
Neville.
