Hi Dee30, <br />
<br />
So far the easiest way of keeping 10 at bay is using Steve Gibson's <a href="https://www.grc.com/never10.htm" rel="ugc">&quot;Never 10&quot;</a><br />
<br />
Steve has been a living legend in the realm of security for a longtime, and always puts out nice little programs like this one. <br />
<br />
Hope this helps.

Have you checked all software is compatible? Drivers for all hardware devices present?<br />
Upgrading is easy if you extract the ISO to a network share and start setup /?<br />
It will show you the parameters for silent setup and possible options for scripting. It's a one liner.

Appreciate the stand-alone various pieces of info but looking for Enterprise deployment insights/best practices, procedures Administrators are doing to upgrade their nodes. <br />
<br />
IE you have AD servers, GPO administering to the users majority Win7 pro station, WSUS server, 2008 Domain Func Level, potentially several LANS in your WAN. <br />
<br />
What is the approuch being taking to deploy win 10 in blocks of 20 or more nodes, what issues/things should be considered post or encountered after. <br />
<br />
Thank you.

High level bullet-ed approach is good, with any necessary linear details if thing truly relevant, appreciated.

Hello, &nbsp;wanted to post about what corporate ITers are doing about windows 10 Pro deployment, how. <br />
LAN env: 2008 AD Svrs 2003 Domain Func level<br />
<br />
The windows 10 update icon now showing in my users time trays, windows 7 pro, via WSUS. &nbsp;<br />
Looked quickly on how to remove, but nothing simple and effective came up as options. <br />
They are not admins so can't install even though app is there for them to click on in time tray. <br />
<br />
That said I tried it on a test laptop some other win pro machines and I just get the endless downloading/upgrade circle splash screen and nothing is happening, even overnight. <br />
<br />
So, how are others deploying this thing in-house? &nbsp;<br />
Caveats some should consider?<br />
GPOs, Templates, to look into?<br />
<br />
Thank you.
