I have just run the option to roll back your machine to win 8.1 from Win10.
(Machine had been upgraded to Win10 by accident and following the instructions rolled back from the recovery options)
The machine came back OK ... or at least I thought so.
I have discovered that the Windows Update options have been 'Locked' so updates are automatic.
As administrator I am supposed to be able to change the options but it does not allow it.
I get a message saying that I need to be administrator when I am logged in as the only user who 'Does' have administrator rights.
I tried setting up a new user and making it Administrator .... still will not work.
I found a registry hack to allow the setting to be changes or permanently set as you want.
http://www.askvg.com/how-to-change-windows-update-settings-when-managed-or-disabled-by-system-administrator/It works in terms of the setting is changed on the Windows Update page BUT then Windows Update will not run.
I am now in the process of rolling back the Win 8.1 machine to an earlier position via restore.
MS are now getting really on my nerves ....... this is beyond simple updates but forcing your choices of what and when you update, on an OS that has always allowed that freedom.
Win10 is bad enough but you know what you are getting.
Forcing it onto Win 7 /8 is unbelievable .... do the Corporate users get this as well ?
:mushroomcloud: <<--- kitz, need one of these just for MS.
