How to Prevent Windows 7/Win8.1 from automatically downloading the Win10 installation package, win7win10

Anyone who has used the Win8 system knows that the Win10 installation package will be automatically pushed as long as you have made an appointment with the Win10 system, but many friends do not want to install Win10, next, let's take a look at my experience and tell you how to prevent Windows/Win8.1 from automatically downloading the Win10 installation package.

First, open the control panel application in Win8, and then click"Programs and functions"Option.

On the programs and functions page, click"View installed updates"To view the update patches installed in the Win8 system.

In the patch list, click findKB3035583 patch update,Right-click the patch file and select"Uninstall"Button.

Next, follow the same steps to uninstall Windows 7.KB2990214And in Win8.1KB3044374 patch.

Next, we need to install Microsoft KB3065987 (applicable to Win7 system) and KB3065988 (applicable to Win8.1 System) Update to prevent downloading the Win10 installation package. The download link is available for searching and downloading Windows updates. After the two updates are installed, we need to modify the system registry.

Next, we need to modify the system registry. Press the Windows logo key + R key on the desktop and enter"Regedit"Command to open the Registry Editor.

After the registry editor page is opened, click double-click to open the file directory on the left, and then locate the file directoryHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Policies \ Microsoft \ Windows \ WindowsUpdateSubitem. If the Windows Update subitem cannot be found, right-click and select"New-item"Option, and name it"Windows Update".

Next, double-click the newly created"Windows Update"Subitem, and then select"Create a DWORD (32-bit) ValueAnd name itDisableOSUpgrade.

Next, double-click the newly createdDisableOSUpgrade subkeyIn the pop-up menu, enter the key value of the sub-key"1", And click" OK "to save the change to the subkey value.

Next, we can restart the computer with peace of mind. After the computer is restarted, the modification to the system registry is over, we also successfully prevented Windows 7 or Windows 8 from automatically upgrading to Windows 10. If you want to restore and upgrade the Win10 system later, you can directly Delete the createdDisableOSUpgrade subkeyItem. Try it now.
