As long as you don't have automatic updates selected, and you have unchecked the box to treat recommended updates the same way as important updates, you should be okay.

Yes Gerald I remember you saying that to uninstall KB3,335,583 and I did
but I left the automatic updates on so my question is now , will windows
update still be able to install with KB3,335,582 missing?
Re: [JAWS-Users] if you are not ready for windows 10 beware of windows
update
Anna, In the past, I've suggested to uninstall KB3035583, and then hide
it upon checking for updates, but I think what Gerald is implying is
that if you
leave the settings on windows updates to be performed automatically, you
won't have any control as to what gets updated.

Updates are divided (in Win7 at least) between important and
recommended.  I never download recommended because I chinstruct Windows
to check for updates and let me decide whether to download and install.
If the Win 10 install is an important upgrade, then you'd have to go
into the details of each upgrade that is connected to the operating
system, not to your other apps like Word, Defender, etc.  There is a
link to more information.  The process can be enlightening if you care
for that kind of detail.

This said, the Win 10 income in the systems tray came as an important
update..I did not scrutinize the important updates.  And so I warily
proceed.

Re: [JAWS-Users] if your not ready for windows 10 beware of windows

To prevent Windows 10 from being installed surreptitiously on your PC
without your knowledge, go to Change Settings in the Windows Update
dialog, and in
the combo box choose the option labeled "check for updates but let me
choose whether to download and install them."  Also, uncheck the box
labeled "get
recommended updates the same way I receive important updates."

how down loads without your knowledge you are litterally going to be in
a mess.
could some one on the list please help me and tell me which update will
cause this dialogue to appear ? that is mentioned below so I can
uninstall it?
before I run into the same problem.
thanks in advance
Re: [JAWS-Users] If you're not ready for Win10, beware of Windows Update
Hi there,
There is no better time to up grade to win10 than now. It is twice as
fast, JAWS and NVDA work with it great, and it is much easier to
navigate. You also
have cortana which obeys your commands to do things on the computer for
you and to answer many questions. I and many many JAWS and NVDA users
have already
upgraded to win10 and love it and will never look back. Please quit
being afraid to explore the unknown. It just might be 10 times more
rewarding when
you finally get the nerve to explore and find your reward. Have a good
one.

Thanks for the heads up on this.

I, for one, am not going to try to adapt to another operating system just
now, not if I can help it.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] If you're not ready for Win10, beware of Windows
Update

A windows update which came down yesterday afternoon, installed Win10
without my permission. The automatic update brought up a screen about
downloading Win10. MS had downloaded Win10 months ago, but this screen
made
me question what I knew. There were 2 options- "download and upgrade" and
"download but do not upgrade". I selected the last option- thinking that
either I had been mistaken about Win10 already being fully downloaded or
that the major updates to Win10 required a new download of Win10.

However, after the download, I started seeing a 'preparing to install'
message and this morning was presented with a license accept screen. I
called the accessibility desk to uninstall and hide this update. I don't
plan on installing till early spring when I will have more time. I
hope no
one else will get caught unprepared as I did last night

Cher
