    How do I opt out of Windows Insider Builds?


    Yeah so earlier I decided to opt into Windows Insider Builds as they interested me, so once I opted in, it started to install a build

    However, when it was installing I got a message saying

    "This PC can't be upgraded to Windows 10 (and by that it means it won't install the update, I'm already running Windows 10 Home)

    Although you are enrolled in the Windows Insider Program this device isn't eligible for this build."


    So after that letdown, I went to the settings to opt out, I clicked the stopped receiving updates button, and then restarted my computer.

    Only problem, it keeps thinking I'm in the program and keeps trying to install the build even though I clicked "Stop Receiving Updates" and restarted my PC numerous times.

    Can someone help me out with this? I really don't want to deal with constantly canceling an Insider Build that my laptop won't run.


    And if anyone wants to know, my laptop model is a Dell Inspiron 15-3567 running Windows 10 Home.

    :)

  3. Unable to opt out of Insider Builds

    I have tried over the last month or two to stop receiving Insider Builds and have been unsuccessful. I keep getting referred to this

    How-To article
    . I wish to follow their advice:

    • Keep an eye out for the next production, or publicly released, build to hit my PC. When it does, I can opt out
    Question #1: Where can I find the schedule for the next public build?

    Question #2: If such a build is tomorrow ("Patch Tuesday"), is it as simple as going to Windows -> Settings -> Update & Security > Windows Insider Program and clicking the link "Stop Insider Preview builds"?

    Every time I have done that in the past, I just get directed to the above article (unless perhaps I did not time it with the "next production build" properly). I'm about to reinstall Windows 10 and all my apps from scratch if I can't opt out. As a developer
    that means about two days worth of work I'd like to avoid at all cost. Preview versions are too slow for me to work with.

    I am currently on Version 1809 (OS Build 17744.1004) and am on the slow track.
