Windows 7 To Windows 10 Upgrade

    Over the weekend, I bit the bullet and upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 using the Microsoft upgrade "nag" process. There were several problems with key application programs, so last night I took the Option to revert to Windows 7. Everything appeared to be fine.

    After converting back to Windows 7, I went to Windows Update and made absolutely sure that the Windows 10 update was not checked. This morning I was greeted with a home screen "pop-up" message asking for date and time to do a Windows Update ... obviously Windows 10. There are limited dates and times with no apparent way to exit the screen.

    Attached are screenshots of the home screen and the current Windows Update screen.

    I would appreciate help in getting rid of this schedule screen and preventing a forced Windows 10 update.

    Thanks.

    Thanks Major Attitude. I have seen GWX suggested on various searches, but it's nice to have confirmation my Major Geeks. I'll give it a shot.

    Just a quick follow-up. The GWX Control Panel worked perfectly ... no more Windows 10 nag screens but I still have the option for a future upgrade. Thanks again, Major Attitude.
