You have to both make a registry edit, and force a global policy

Google can get you the instructions, will track them down later
if you need me to do so.
Okay, I'll look into it. Thanks!

While the *use* of Windows 10 isn't that different from 7, and as an OS is
fairly stable and complete, I have to stress on forcing the thing out of
auto-update mode. I have come home to one system running 10 that was doing
a compile, only to find out it had failed because the system had rebooted
right in the middle of a job. A POS system with a non-profit I help out at
once couldn't do work for an hour and a half as it booted, said it needed
updates, then forcibly rebooted without any concern to the business it
just
took down. Microsoft has gone the wrong direction on this one, and has
forgotten that this system is *my* system. I do not lease it from
Microsoft, I do not have a Desktop as a Service. I have systems I need to
run when I have work I need to do.
Application wise, however, I haven't found anything third-party that
refuses to run outright. To the underlying software it isn't that
different
from 8, relatively speaking, so if it runs on 8 it should run on 10. My
game system is currently running 10.

I know many of you folks are against anything from MS but, it one has
to use Windows, is it now a good idea to change over to Windows 10
from Windows 7?
Any real reason not to do so now?
