Unable to stop Windows 11 update
Hey, I signed up for the Windows Insider Program and got the Windows 11 Preview 10.0.22000.100 (co_release). There were some glitches in the taskbar and I could not have this occurring as I needed my laptop for work. I decided to go back to Windows 10 and leave the Windows Insider Program. However, when I switched back to Windows 10, it keeps giving me the Windows 11 Preview 10.0.22000.100 (co_release) and updating for itself. How do I stop the update as I would like to remain with Windows 10?

- I was having the same problem. Then I got an idea if you can't stop it make it incompatible and everything works fine even you get your win 10 updates. Simplest way to do is that turn off the tpm or ptt or any other named security technology without which win 11 can't install and you can always turn it back on if you are ready to install win 11. It will not affect your PC working either.
- Same it even took forever to get rid of 11 and now it wants to come back got to the point i had to go to bios to remove it
- I recommend not contacting MicrosoftSupport for this problem because I went thru it for over 90 minutes of remote-desktop to no avail.
S/he first actually stopped my netsvc and then disabled it. <HEY!> Lucky I questioned these actions and re-enabled them.
Next, s/he disabled all updates. <HEY!> "How would I get my other updates like security updates?"
Next s/he told me that I would have to continue to defer updates every 7 days'. <HEY!> I just got tasked a dirty microsoft job!
Next s/he advised me that I can always 'Reset' my Win10Pro. <HEY!> I asked "I am gonna do what? And with all of the currently installed/migrated (window7+8) programs?"
You see where I am getting with this 90-minute assist job that did nothing to fix the problem...????The Microsoft support agent told me she couldn't help me leave the Insider program (I never signed up for) and told me to come here. You're telling me she helped you leave the Insider?
- Please make sure to either 'image' your current OS drive and/or do a system restore (and often) in case of a reboot which may force another InsiderPreview Win11 update to your Win10 during next boot-up (upon power failure, etc.)
Hi,
4malD , Arvinkamal , ogiyak, bakeiro,
Thought I would share how I managed to solve this for me.
So I had uninstalled win11 by using the Go Back option to win10. Then win10 tried to reinstall win11, so I
1. Paused the update.
2. Left the insider program (https://insider.windows.com/en-us/leave-program).
And this dint work so I
3. I unlinked my account in Settings->Windows Insider Program
Still didnt help, so I
4. Followed this article https://www.tomshardware.com/how-to/uninstall-windows-11 (including disk cleanup system file and reboot)
And guess what I still wasn't enough... Then I remembered that win10 didn't allow me to join the insider program because I had turned of the sharing of diagnostic data.
5. Go to Settings ->Privacy->Diagnostics & Feedback-> And choose the option "Required diagnostic...." (also I turned off all sharing of data in all different menus but I think the D&F one is all you need to turn off)
AND BOOOOM no more **bleep**ing win 11 updates.PS.
To be fair this doesn't actually solve the issue as win10 still wants to install win11, it just wants you to reactivate the diagnostics data sharing before allowing you to install win11.
Hello
Surely only disabling sharing - diagnostic data will not stop
automatic update Windows11 because the installed version must be
Updated.
But I'm glad you want to help others - thank you!Deleted I suggest you read the post again because you clearly did not read it properly the first time and I also am glad that you want to help others, really sweet of you to try - thank you!
You need to unregister from insider program, or unregister only this computer
then you need to perform a clean installation of Windows10.I have followed every advice I can find, yet I am still in the same boat as those who have come here to resolve a big issue. Being an Insider member, Win10Pro system update notified my PC (Intel Z170 Mobo + i7-6900K CPU) that Win11 insider version will be installed on next reboot. I had already gone and checked my system to ensure my hardware was compatible w/Win11. A day AFTER/UPON installation of the Insider Win11, the system told me that my hardware became non-qualified (non-compatible) w/Win11. This is the first time (since days of Win3.x) that I reverted my system back to a previous version because of all sorts of issues I have w/new Win11.
Now, I am being told that the only way to stop the nagging Win11 Install threat is to do a Fresh new Installation of Windows 10 or spend another $1500+ USD to make my hardware compatible w/Win11/
Hey Dufus: Why do you think we have always stock with WinOS? Because Microsoft used to respect legacy hardware. Now youa re telling my Skylake desktop is NFG? I think this is the moment I can assuredly say that Microsoft has become NFG (or the tail that wags the dog).
While I was trying to opt-out of Insider, Microsoft wanted to ask my experience. I went thru the questionnaire to the end and submitted it. This was the response I received:
Your request failed. Please e-mail The Microsoft Tech Community and provide the date and time you received the error and this Exception ID: 7CC187C8. Please also provide a summary of the steps you took which led to this error message"
- Same problem here pretty annoying, in my case update was automatically, windows was remember me to update, I just click OK, and then next time I boot my PC was windows 11, should be possible to disable this update with a config...
- If you wish to roll back to Windows 10: Go Start>>System>>Recovery, and select "Go back" Provided this is within 10 days of the initial Windows 11 installation, there should be no issues.
kayMJ How much time has passed since the Windows 11 upgrade and your first attempt to roll back to Windows 10? Windows allows a grace period of 10 days, after which the Windows 10 installation will be automatically removed by Windows.
If you have exceeded the 10-day limit, your only option is to do a new install of Windows 10. This will remove all your apps and data though, which would have to be reinstalled and restored, so make sure you have backups!
You will need to scroll down to: Create Windows 10 installation media on this page for instructions: Download Windows 10 (microsoft.com)
davequail did you even read the post?! Why would you even waste your time writing a useless response that clearly is not what is needed to answer the question. He said he already reverted to windows 10 and needs to stop the update from staying in the update section and keep trying to update.
Please don't post if you don't want to put in any effort to actually read what is going on.
Same problem here. Windows 11 slow my computer down, drop CSGO FPS and so many many problems needed to be fixed.
I have left Windows Insider to avoid upgrading to windows 11 but it still trying to update to Windows 11 Insider Preview 10.0.22000.100 (co_release) after all that work. So annoying. Hope someone can help.
