We traditionally welcome the new mildly obtrusive offer from Microsoft. This time, of course, we are urged to upgrade to Windows 10. Not only are we urged, but rather Windows 10 makes broadband haste to our PCs, without much ado (or permission).
We couldn’t let this pass unattended, so here’s a quick how-to on removing the unwelcome guest.
Note that sometimes Microsoft releases updates with the same KB number but with a later release date. You hide the little culprits (Step 5) each time they are released.
