We are not ready to do that yet because we need to make sure couple of third party vendor programs will work properly under 10. I left the computer running last night and when I came in this morning there was a blue screen (!) that said something along the lines like "Hi ELB! Upgrade to Windows 10!". The only button available was "next" and not even the three-fingered salute could escape it. So I went to next, and maybe another screen, and when I got to the License Agreement I declined. Then I got a message "Restoring previous version of Windows" and that took about 10 minutes. All appears normal now.
This is bovine leave-behinds. Microsoft apparently used the auto update function to force an upgrade, and it didn't really give an option to say "No I don't want Windows 10", you have to realize you can sidestep it by declining the license agreement. I don't recall any warning pop-ups yesterday or earlier saying this was scheduled. It just happened.
We will upgrade sometime this spring, but we don't need it crammed down our throats. grrrrrr..
Thanks for posting.
