My information is that it may download 10 without your permission it can't install it unless you allow it to proceed.

Are you sure it is not the icon down by the clock in the system tray and also a screen may come up telling you about installing W10. So my next question is are you sure it installed W10? And if so how do you know it is using W10?

The school installed zoomtext on his computer. I had a demo copy of jaws 15 installed but have not needed access to his computer in a very long time. There are some other programs installed. He was told by the school not to install win 10 and now it is completely installed and set up. Zoomtext did update and looks like it is running for him. Not sure about everything else. -----Original Message----- From: TheHangMan Sent: Wednesday, March 09, 2016 8:44 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] auto update to windows 10 Lenny, If he was running jaws 16, 17 or have openbook installed, That would never happen, like you say, automatically. Because the upgrade would only get to about 25% complete and you would have to cancel the install, or continue and remove the FS programs.
