Microsoft is trying to reinstall Windows 10 on Windows 7 & 8

Microsoft seems to be preparing a more aggressive upgrade policy in 10. Ενώ το νέο λειτουργικό εμφανίστηκε για πρώτη φορά σαν προαιρετική ενημέρωση, στη συνέχεια έγινε συνιστώμενη και η λήψη του διατίθεται μέσω του . windows 10 logo

But the company, in addition to the above that we already know, made some changes to the older Windows 7 and 8.1 operating systems to make sure that more PCs would be upgraded, whether their owners wanted to or not.

The settings that were set to stop the upgrade to Windows 10 are reported to be reset from at least one of the updates released by Microsoft for Windows 7 and 8.1.

This information comes from the developer of GWX , an application developed to prevent upgrading to Windows 10.

"Thanksgiving weekend I started receiving reports that the Windows Update 'AllowOSUpgrade' setting had changed on several computers, and it continues to give notifications at least once a day," says Josh Mayfield in ComputerWorld.

In other words, systems with Windows 7 and 8.1 can now easily upgrade to Windows 10, and there is no way to block automatic updates at this time.

Everything is naturally due to updates for older Windows systems, and according to Mayfield, it is the same update that is re-distributed again and again.

"Microsoft has released this update several times," Mayfield said. "The name of the update does not change, but there are new binaries in each version."
