Windows 10: Windows 10 updates causing migration to Mac OS

Why so many updates? Why can’t I turn this off?


I have now lost two medical buildings to MAC!


I can’t blame them.... I can’t stop the updates. Well I can, but Microsoft shuts off a slew of other apps like calc and photo viewer if updates are forced off for more than 30 days.


Two other locations have decided to roll back to Windows 7.
