Windows 10: How to stop the ongoing windows 11 upgrade from being downloaded?

Hey guys,A while ago, accidentally I pressed the upgrade to windows 11 button in Windows 10 and now my Windows 11 upgrade is downloading. Still, its status is downloading. I paused the updates to stop it from being downloaded, but as soon as I resume the updates, again it's starting to download. Is there any way to stop this update from being downloaded since I don't want to update my pc to Windows 11 at the moment? Thanks.

:)

 

Internet Explorer 11; Windows 10....Stopped Working

IE11; Windows 10. For the past 2 weeks when I open IE11 I get Internet Explorer has Stopped working POPUP message rendering IE 11 unusable.

I have followed suggested Fixes by "Resetting" IE11; Use Software Rendering...is NOT checked. I have tried to use "System Restore" and go back to a Restore Point prior to 2 weeks but, I get unable to restore to xx/xx/xxxx because the process cannot file iexplorer.exe.

I have tried several Restore Points...get this same result.

I cannot fine the Internet 11 Install Update to delete it as it is not in the list History\Installed Updates.

Surely there must be away to fix IE 11...I have run out of things to do...suggestions with steps will be appreciated.
