    How can I avoid Windows 10 being downloaded and installed (at least tries to) when I what to manually load some updates that had failed when I had the problem with my Windows Update? I have eliminated the April 2015 update and cancelled my reservation for the program but something still is hanging around.

    Simple alternative - install GWX Apart from preventing download of Win 10 also gives you the ability to remove any Windows 10 stuff which may already be on the computer.

    Works flawlessly on my old Win 7 box :)
