    As the title States I updated to Windows 10 on a gaming rig my friend helped me build seeing as I'm not really a computer guy, my computer had so many problems it could barely function, using help I was able to roll back the update and was super reluctant to touch 10 again, so I waited not knowing that apparently it being a free OS was only temporary. If I downloaded it once for free can I access it again? Or am I going to have to drop the $200 to keep using my computer safely?

    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.
