Also there's an MS utility to temporarily block the Anniversary update but read the instructions.

I've now used disk images to reinstate Win 8.1 on four machines along with custom HOSTS and other anti-snoop measures.

Yeah, I really dont understand why people cling to windows 10 when they having issues, I am talking about the people who have personally suffered from breakage. You are the only person I know tony who has seen sense.

NewtronStar:
Have to say Windows 10 is working like a dream now after a full destructive install over previous OS (Vista) HD even using the 64Bit version, it's definitely much better to install Windows 10 as a fresh install rather than the upgrade method.

Still awaiting Anniversary updates how do you know if you have one ?

Ronski:
I've updated loads of computers to Windows 10, and there is only one that is playing up - it keeps waking from sleep. To be fair I transplanted the SSD from a 10 year old system to an Intel NUC (retail OS) and then upgraded to W10. So it could well be some remnants leftover from the old drivers causing problems. When I get chance I'm going to do a fresh install of W10 on it.

PS. If you want to get the anniversary update I think you can do it from here - it gives me the option to update

It's odd not seeing the Windows Update icon in the control panel it's been their since XP and then disappeared with Windows 10 so don't have much control what updates I want & don't
