  2. Windows Installer popup on Windows 10 will not cancel

    Hi Brian,

    For us to isolate the issue with the Windows Installer pop-up that can't be cancelled, we would like to know the following:

    • Were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue (e.g., updates, software installation)?
    • When you say "It will not cancel", can you tell us what happens when you try canceling it?
    • To make sure that we have not missed on anything, what troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    In he meantime, we suggest that you perform a clean boot. It will help us determine if there are any third-party
    programs/apps that is causing the issue. It could be some other applications or programs.

    We look forward to your response.

    Insurgency wont install and run for me....

    I have played and have fully updated CS and Half life 2....
    I am using the newest client and installed the SDK.

    I am completely blown away, if i click the desktop icon it starts the sdk and then closes, and it doesn't show up in my game list...

    First mod attempt install here, followed the directions step by step on the mods website...

    Any ideas?

    Cancel Windows 10 Download

    Hi,



    Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community and sorry for delayed response.



    As per the issue description you don't want Windows 10 right now and willing to cancel Windows 10 upgrade. However, cancelling the reservation is not possible but you may hide the update which is responsible for the upgrade.



    This can be done if the update which is responsible for this icon is either uninstalled from your system or if it is hidden. So, first I would suggest you to uninstall
    KB3035583 update and then hide it. Hope this would resolve your issue. in future if you want Windows 10 just install this update and you can upgrade to Windows 10.



    To check if the updates is already installed:

    • Open Installed Updates by pressing
      Windows key + X
      . Select Control Panel
      from the list, clicking Programs, and then, under
      Programs and Features, clicking View installed updates.
    • Click the update KB3035583 that you want to remove, and then click
      Uninstall. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.


    You can refer to the below mentioned steps to hide an update.



    • Press Window key + X.
    • Select Control Panel from the list.
    • Under view by option select large icons.
    • And then click either Windows Update or
      Microsoft Update
      .
    • Now click on important updates available (recommended).
    • Click to clear the check box that is next to the
      KB3035583 update.
    • Expand the KB3035583 update that you want to hide, and then click the "Don't show this update again" check box.
    • Click Review and install updates.
