Once Windows 10 is upgraded on your computer and you decide to ‘reverse’ it and go back to Windows 7 or 8, then this will require your system be backed up, the original operating system reinstalled along with all of your software programs, anti-virus and data. Call us old fashioned but Windows Operating systems should be upgraded only after consulting a professional. If you decide you're ready for Windows 10, simply open GWX Control Panel and re-enable the Automatic Windows 10 Upgrades button and re-enable the notification, and Microsoft will take care of the rest.As a provider of tech support services we have personally seen where home users who upgrade to Windows 10 has caused the end user grief and ended up costing them money. The problem here is that Microsoft will probably keep on adding updates that make this harder and harder, so you'll need to occasionally check to see if a newer version of GWX Control Panel has been launched, as this will likely have more antidotes to Microsoft's Windows 10 obsession. This looks for Windows updates that undo the changes you've made using GWX Control Panel, and changes them back again. The latest version of GWX Control Panel also comes with Monitor Mode. Finally, to disable the Windows 10 upgrade altogether, select the 'Click to Prevent Windows 10 Upgrades' button.

The button underneath that deletes all downloaded files associated with Windows 10, which can save you several gigabytes of space. To disable all notifications, click the Disable 'Get Windows 10 App' button. GWX Control Panel can do all of these things in three clicks.
