"Uninstall and then hide the update for KB3035583"

Yup. Worked for me.

Now uninstall the updates listed below because they are doing Windows 10 'like' spying on you too.

* 3068708

* 3022345

* 3075249

* 3080149

You can refer to the below mentioned steps to hide an update.

Press Window key + X.
Select Control Panel from the list.
Under view by option select large icons.
And then click either Windows Update or Microsoft Update.
Now click on important updates available (recommended).
Click to clear the check box that is next to the KB3035583 update.
Expand the KB3035583 update that you want to hide, and then click the “Don’t show this update again” check box.
Click Review and install updates.

Stop the Nag:

Simply go into windows update, click on update history on left, then click on installed updates up top on right, down a little bit- look for KB3o3558 and right click uninstall- you’ll have to restart machine- When you see the update again in future list- (just update the list) right click it and select ‘hide’

I’ve never had problems with windows 7- no freezes, no blue screens of death- no driver issues etc- been running it for years- winxp used to act up some- and windows 98 wow- really bad- lots of issues-

Been very happy with windows 7- windows 10 just seems like a massive spyware program

Hmmm. My son and I both bought brand new gaming rigs last year, now both are seeing the update notifications. When 10 was first introduced, I thought I wanted it, but I started reading stories of incompatibilities with the gaming software. Now, I’m sitting here waiting. Still don’t know if I want it. Some disagreement within the gaming community whether it’s worth upgrading.
