Windows 10: How to fix computer after windows does updates ?

So every time these systems do updates, I have to repair all the issues the updates caused. From Drivers Windows automatically disables older drivers, to adding bloatware, and software we cannot have running on our machines.Windows updates are making perfectly good machines, un-usable. How can we stop this ? These are perfectly good machines. Ran windows 7 perfectly for years. All we need. However, updates have forced us to upgrade these machines to states that we do not need.Microsoft is destroying machines. How can we stop this ?Thanks

:)

They made it part of the WU client then, or it's two different things doing the same. Too bad you can't download it separately.

Yeah, I've been noting it for months on the refusenik thread. They do NOT want anything older than 10 running.

I still have an HTPC on W7, and every other month I have to fix the update agent in order to get all updates. SMH....

You provided a good step by step fix. I've bookmarked it for future reference.
