    Disable Win 10 Version 2004 Prompt to install and restart


    Several months ago I installed Win 10 version 2004 and there were nothing but major problems so I uninstalled it after many days.

    Now the prompt to install and restart my computer is constant. How can I disable this prompt. I do not want to install this update.

    :)

  2. Disable installation of Feature Update 2004

    About 2 weeks ago, version 2004 showed up on the Updates list and automatically installed. Upon completion of the install, the computer was completely unusable: no application would load; those that started would hang and eventually (5 minutes) fail. To
    attempt to remove the update, I had to force a power off (mirrored drives really don't like that!) and then was finally able to use to Recovery under Updates to remove about 95% of the update. After the require restart and while checking what was or was not
    working, Updates (of course) reinstalled 2004. Repeat: Recovery and Remove 95% (95% of 95% = 90% Usable). Attempting to use MS questions area, the only suggestion was to Disable the Updates Service which, of course, means no further security or usability
    patches.

    All of that overly long explanation is by way of saying: I have attempted the only other option given here for removing 2004. At the moment, the Update Service is Disabled (PS: if you leave it at Manual, it will eventually start up and 2004 will commence
    its installation). So, the question: is there ANY way to disable the attempt by Update Service to install version 2004? I don't mean "install and wait for a couple of patches", I mean permanent tell Windows to NOT attempt to install 2004? My computer works
    just fine without the feature updates and does not work AT ALL *with* the updates. Prior versions and other patches allow for the update to be Hidden and ignored; Feature Update 2004 will install if the service is running and there appears to be no way to
    abort/hide/ignore the update.

    Any suggestions??

    How to create a Win 10 version 1909 installation media to downgrade from version 2004?

    After clean install pf Win 10 version 2004, system "Cannot connect to network". It was suggested I down grade to 1909.I have a version 2004 installation USB. I have a version 1909 ISO file. If I knew where the version 2004 was hiding, I could replace
    it. Or I could create a new media, but all instructions lead to 2004 installs.
