I'm in a quandary.
I just acquired a Dell Laptop PC, with Windows 8.1, Pro, 64, on it and apparently the Auto Update feature was shut off.
When I turned the Auto Update ON, and checked to see what updates are available, I found that there are 91 updates pending.
I looked through them and they all looked OK to download, but when I started the Update, it wanted to Download Windows 10.
If I stop that update, they all stop.
So far, I've not found a way to tell the OS that I'd like to get the required updates, but, I DO NOT want Windows 10.
There must be a way.....?
Anyone know how to do this? (get all the updates from MS, without getting the download of Windows 10)
Thanks for any help,
TechnoMage
