It's your fault for using windows.
>>54408315
Have loonix on my laptop.

No but thank you Rashed
>>54408315
I use windows too, but i'm not that stupid to let it downgrade to Windows 10
>>54408304
If you're too stupid to keep 10 off your PC, you should just go ahead and update. It's designed for idiots like you.

You're a liar, a retard or both OP
>>54408304
This didn't happen or you're somehow literally retarded.
My computer at work has been asking to update to 10 for months and it hasn't just suddenly happened without anything I can do.
Also Windows 10 is a great OS I use it on 3 computers and it works just fine I like it a lot the only windows I skipped was 8.

>or disabling updates
Sucks to be a dumb yankee
>too stupid to defer upgrades

Afterwards turn automatic updates off, and then just manually check for updates yourself each week and research them before installing them. Pretty simple, and there aren't many updates on 7 anymore.

Or just run https://github.com/AnrDaemon/BlockWindows instead of watching some dude executing and searching through regedit for 10 hours.
there are plenty of 3rd party programs out there created specifically to block macrocuck's wangblows 10 bullshit. Never10, GWX Control Panel, etc. Download one and use it.
>>54408315
Its his fault for using an OS that doesn't require command line to do basic tasks?
I upgraded to win 10 and have been enjoying it so far. Got rid of the lock screen and botnet and it seems like a straight upgrade from 7 :)

Faggot, if it's simple, why didn't do it by a terminal ?
>>54415652
Whatever that is.
Point is, windows makes sense. no typing crazy commands to do things that are solved by right clicking.
>>54415667
Did you use a terminal one time in your life ? There isn't crazy command when you got a brain. Just RTFM.
I only use Windows for gaming + MASM programming. There's no other reason besides these.

Just restore from backup. You did make backups, right?

You don't understand business. Each of those accidental installs is probably bookable hours.
Sucks - yes. Better ways to arrange things exist - yes, but they require morality and intelligence levels above those of capitalism.

OP must be a troll
or he is literally retarded.
Windows 10 has been super easy to prevent from installing. Even if you did install it, probably because of some kind of lapse in judgement, it has a roll back feature that reverts everything to just before the install. just for retards like you OP
