Windows 10: Why was my laptop force updated to Windows 11?

My laptop said that it needed to update. No big deal, I figured it was another minor fix or something. I reboot my system, and come to find out that its updated from Windows 10 to 11. Why did this happen and how can I undo it?

DirectX update forcing games to play windowed

Hey everyone,
My cousin is having an issue with his Ideapad y480 laptop. He has had sucess in the past playing games like borderlands 2 on fullscreen, but apparently after a directX update, it forces games to be played in windowed mode. So games like Natural Selection 2, he can't even access at the moment, as it forces fullscreen, and no launch options for windowed mode.

Windows 10 forced download

^This, then reboot and go to manually update windows. Find KB3035583 in the list of available updates, right-click and "Hide this update" so it doesn't get installed again next go around.

 

Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Best regards.


And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
