Windows 10: Update sets an appointment independently

The update to Windows 10 is not very popular with many users of the predecessors Windows 7 and 8.1. You are taking various actions to avoid the upgrade, hide the notification window, or disable the notifications for Windows 10 completely. If Microsoft has found a new way to rub the update up to the users, the hunt for instructions will start from the beginning.


So far, the reference to the update on Windows 10 has hit the strings only in a few cases. There were countdowns that the user had to cancel, or Windows updates to the patch day, which apparently included only a Windows 10 installation. In a recent move on the part of Microsoft, the Redmonder should be a bit too pushy for some users. The site cnet.com reports from a system message that Windows Update simply set itself an appointment to upgrade to Windows 10.


After all, this date can be moved or canceled by clicking on a link in the message. Anyone who simply closes the message may experience a surprise when the PC replaces Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 with Windows 10 after starting up at the time.


Lesetipp: Switch to Windows 10 or not?


The "misdead" for the self-planned automatic update should be found at Microsoft. The Redmonder have now classified Windows 10 as a recommended - and no longer optional - Windows Update. If a corresponding setting is still active on the computer, after which recommended updates are automatically imported, the observation reported by cnet.com will probably occur.


If you do not want Windows 10, you should read the message - if it gets it, then read it carefully and click the link for the move or cancel. After that, we continue to work with our referenced and linked instructions to lock the Windows 10 Update (again). After all, there is light at the end of the tunnel: Microsoft has assured that the update notes will disappear with the end of the free update phase (after July 29, 2017).
