Microsoft pushing windows 10 w/o user consent
if you noticed that you mysteriously lost some of your hard drive space, this is probably why.
thanks for nothing, Microsoft.

btw, you can change your setting to only allow manual download/install of updates to avoid this issue.

@yiffyfurry the problem here is not about why not upgrading, but it's about consent. No consent means no ethic.
Why would you not want windows 10?
There is no reason to not upgrade anyway, software devs will be working with Windows 10 more with 8.1 slightly behind.
@xkillo32 Microsoft has done stuff like this in the past. Im just saying.

he means that the files are being put in your hard drive incase you want to upgrade so that it will be faster
not that it just automatically upgrades

This happened to my sister even though she already had disabled auto updates
