July 26, 201510 yr Commercial Member Oh what a cheap and clumsy move by Microsoft! I hate automatic updates, or better to say, I'm really afraid of updates because I had a problem with them, messed up my system 2 years ago. Since then I didn't updated my Win7 one single time, and never had any security or compatibility/stability issues. If updates are mandatory in Win10, I'm sure I will avoid that OS for a long time. Current system: ASUS PRIME Z690-P D4, Intel 12900k, 32GB RAM @ 3600mhz, Zotac RTX 3090 Trinity, M2 SSD, Oculus Quest 2.
July 26, 201510 yr I've read about this. This is definitely a big issue that MS is ignoring. It's also a problem that the "Device Installation Settings" doesn't work to stop driver updates. i7-6700K @ 4.5 GHz, 16 GB DDR4-2400 MHz, GTX 1070 8GB

July 26, 201510 yr I'm sure it'll get rectified soon enough. I was never one to immediately hope on board with a new OS (with the exception of Windows Vista to Wondows 7). There will be bugs, there will be issues. I say wait for a little while to see how things cool down. -Jim Engage, research, inform and make your posts count! -Jim Morvay Origin EON-17SLX - Under the hood: Intel Core i7 7700K at 4.2GHz (Base) 4.6GHz (overclock), nVidia GeForce GTX-1080 Pascal w/8gb vram, 32gb (2x16) Crucial 2400mhz RAM, 3840 x 2160 17.3" IPS w/G-SYNC, Samsung 950 EVO 256GB PCIe m.2 SSD (Primary), Samsung 850 EVO 500gb M.2 (Sim Drive), MS Windows 10 Professional 64-Bit

This seems to be a glitch in the "Get Windows 10" utility. The utility was recently updated (it looks a bit different than it was a week ago) so that's probably what caused it to show the 980TI as incompatible. Regardless, this is only for the upgrade and it doesn't change the fact that Windows Updates will still force you to get driver updates, even if you don't want them. i7-6700K @ 4.5 GHz, 16 GB DDR4-2400 MHz, GTX 1070 8GB
July 27, 201510 yr Folks - there are quite a few threads addressing this "forced updates" issue. However, there's been a new, and positive development from Microsoft.

Check out this article at Neowin.net. It says it's for the insider program only. I wonder how it will work in the full release. i7-6700K @ 4.5 GHz, 16 GB DDR4-2400 MHz, GTX 1070 8GB

July 27, 201510 yr Commercial Member My insider build did something to fix my Creative driver which I am immensly happy for.. Being an insider build many features are disabled as a troubleshooting tool. And drivers are pushed so the vendor can evaluate. Its your choice. You may have noticed that MS chose to follow the mobile phone update strategy. Regards jja Jim Allen[email protected]SkyPilot Software home of FSXAssist / P3DAssist
July 28, 201510 yr They came out today with an optional download to allow users to control updates. Jeff Jeff Callender
July 28, 201510 yr If you choose to be in the Win10 Preview "Fast Ring" then we are the guinea pigs. Slow ring and regular users do not get updates until after the Fast Ring users. Are all the users affected on the Fast Ring? If yes, then this is by design. We are in effect testing the updates. David howevr
July 28, 201510 yr It says it's for the insider program only. I wonder how it will work in the full release. Did everyone miss this sentence or am I the only one that sees it. "The tool is aimed at Windows Insiders running Windows 10 but will also work for normal users after the official launch of the OS on July 29."
