nocturnalrites101 Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 http://hexus.net/tech/news/software/90209-windows-10-now-recommended-update-windows-update/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebookCheck your setting and make sure its not set to auto update if you dont want windows 10. otherwise micro soft is force feeding it to you/" Previously irksome update shenanigans, that Microsoft was called out upon, include the pre-downloading of Windows 10 installation files and the well-known Windows 10 update nag service (with associated tray icon). Microsoft has actually varied the nag screen messages over the months and at one point was offering perplexed would-be upgraders the choice of two options: 'upgrade now' or 'upgrade tonight'. Of course there's also the close window (X) icon. Right now on my complicated hardware laptop the nag suggests I 'upgrade now' or 'start download, upgrade later' - which is much more reasonable. Now the Windows 10 update pressure has increased. Those who qualify for the update will be targeted by Microsoft as it has shifted the categorisation of Windows 10 from an 'optional update' to a 'recommended update' in Windows Update. A company spokesman told ZDNet "As we shared in late October on the Windows Blog, we are committed to making it easy for our Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 customers to upgrade to Windows 10. We updated the upgrade experience today to help our customers, who previously reserved their upgrade, schedule a time for their upgrade to take place". Depending upon your Windows Update settings you could now be automatically upgraded from Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. From now on, if you have chosen for Windows Update to 'Give me recommended updates the same way I receive important updates', then the automatic OS update to 10 will kick off sometime during Microsoft's phased rollout. Please note that Windows 10 is now a recommended update, not a 'required update'. (I've just checked and am obviously not part of the new phased rollout yet, as my free Windows 10 update is still listed in the 'optional' section of the Windows Update control panel.)"i was wondering why my pc was running particularly slow earlier and noticed it was trying to update to windows 10 on its own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
