Windows 10: New 1709 rollback to 1703

I just got this 1709 & had to many issue with drivers & uninstalled & roiled back to 1703 but it keep reinstalling 1709 again in windows updates. I not want this creators update & not subscribed to Windows Insider Program. How do I stop Windows update from re installing it .

:)

 

Settings icon on left of menu doesn't lauch settings after 1709 Fall Creators Update?

Thank you Radney and Jigar,

Upon request in my other problem questions related to 1709 I was asked to open a Feedback Hub issue, and I have done so:

Feedback Hub - Windows Insider

After the rollback to 1703 fixed everything, and then the accidental upgrade to 1709 broke it all again, it is clear it is something in the 1709 update itself that is causing the issues.

(I forgot to uninstall the 1709 update so 1st boot after 1703 rollback the 1709 update applied again)

So I have twice updated to 1709 and have confirmed identical problems each time, and I have twice rolled back to 1703 and all problems go away and my system runs very nicely again (no Blue "Please Wait..." every boot, not icons moved on desktop every boot,
settings icon on left of start menu works, etc..)

However, after having been through 2 complete rollback - I can confirm the Win10 Rollback/Downgrade code works very, very well. Kudos for that

 

Version 1709 back to 1703 from iso?

Hi Omar,

Most probably there would be a possibility that the files/apps will be lost. Since it will be a new install. Especially if you will not rollback to the previous version after you have installed the 1709 upgrade. See

How to Use the Rollback Function in Windows 10 1709, 1703 and Earlier Versions of Windows 10.

Let us know how that turned out for you.

You can only defer it for so long that way. The post I made does work.

You can 'hide' the update - I've not tried this personally on an upgrade but read of someone who did so.
