Above is the image of Get Windows 10 tool that almost all Windows 7/8.1 users are getting/will get in coming days. When you get this popup, if you click on the “X” close button at the top right, you will think that you have evaded the Windows 10 download. No Siree, you have actually allowed Microsoft to download Windows 10 onto your PC/laptop. This is in line with the deceptive terms and conditions for Windows 10 published by Microsoft. Even if you click the (X) close button on the message, Microsoft will take it as a approval and start downloading Windows 10 against your wishes. “If you click on OK or on the red ‘X’, you’re all set for the upgrade and there is nothing further to do,” Microsoft states in a support document for the GSX app. For those users who see the new upgrade schedule notice, the only way to reject the Windows 10 download is to click the link where it says “Click here to change the upgrade schedule or cancel schedule upgrade”, then alter your upgrade settings. Remember, here also you are just given the option to delay the inevitable, downloading Windows 10 on your PC/laptop without any option to opt out.
