[CCC News] Forced Windows 10 upgrades...

[Michael Kean]

Hi all :)

Microsoft is increasingly forcing people's computers to upgrade to Windows
10 even if you don't ask for it.

If you don't want that to happen, there is a tiny utility you can download
called "Never Ten" which will prevent it from happening.

You can get it from https://www.grc.com/never10.htm - click the green
"Download Now" button on the right side of the page. Choose "Run" then
click the "Disable Windows 10 Upgrade" button.

You can reverse that later on if you change your mind until Microsoft stops
offering it for free.

I'm yet to see a particularly compelling reason to upgrade if you're happy
with seven or eight, but on the plus side they've sorted out most of the
annoying glitches with Windows 10 now.

If you've already been upgraded and don't like it, you can easily go back
to what you had by clicking start - settings - update and recovery -
recovery - go back to Windows 7/8. Takes about 20 minutes.

A more informative newsletter will be coming in a few days.

Cheers, Mike
