If your happy on Windows 7....
... then don't connect it to the internet for a few months. Microsoft are not backing down from their behaviour... http://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/05/26/microsoft_clarifies_upgrade_trick/
Redmond (via its flacks) has e-mailed The Register – and, we presume, World+Dog – to say that the UI had worked like that for ages: “the UI of our ‘your upgrade is scheduled’ notification is nothing new (including the ability to just ‘X-out’ of the notification with no further action needed to schedule your upgrade) – it’s been part of the notification UI for months” (their emphasis, not ours).
In this Knowledge Base article, Microsoft notes that “Based on customer feedback, in the most recent version of the Get Windows 10 (GWX) app, we confirm the time of your scheduled upgrade and provide you an additional opportunity for cancelling or rescheduling the upgrade.”
No prizes for guessing how I feel about this.
