I walked away from my computer for a few minutes, and when I came back Windows 10 was being installed.

“I walked away from my computer for a few minutes, and when I came back Windows 10 was being installed.”

Yup.

It just does it.

My computer was unplugged and the hard drives were removed and when I put it back together and booted, Windows 10 was installed.

You were distracted, so I updated to Windows 10 for you.

I walked away from my computer doctor's office for a few minutes, and when I came back Windows 10 ObamaCare was being installed.

These sorts of things happen all over the place.

After it’s installed, it asks you to agree to the terms and conditions. If you click “don’t agree”, it undoes the install, putting everything back the way it was.

It does keep trying, though, so I followed the directions here to stop it: http://winsupersite.com/windows-10/how-stop-windows-10-upgrade-downloading-your-system

it happened to my Dads machine at his small business. We were delaying upgrading to 10 as long as possible to make sure it worked with the Quickbooks version he was running. One morning a week or so ago bang, we had 10 that installed sometime in the middle of the night. So much for having a choice.

I got a notice that Windows 101 WOULD BE installed on my computer on May 21. I hurriedly sought advice on how to stop that and learned about the regedit steps necessary( I am most assuredly not a techie) and performed those actions. No install and the daily nags have apparently ceased. ̣

Me, too! I went to bed a couple of nights ago; and my
computer had decided on its own to install Windows 10.
I had NOT clicked ANYTHING that requested Windows 10.
It ran & fiddled around all that night & finally
finished next morning. Somehow Fang got it fixed. I
could see no way to either stop it or get it to backtrack
or cease & desist.

Yeah, it’s kinda like a woman who’s so desperate for sex that she’s sneaking into men’s bedrooms and banging them while they’re asleep.
