I've tried the OP's directions and was successful at setting up a shortcut for VirtualBox on a standard user account.

May have done the trick for future installs ... one month and no new apps / ads added to Metro.
Thanks. One, perhaps dumb, question:
Must it be the built-in Administrator account? Or, can it be an Admin level account created at install time? I have an Admin level account on all our PCs...
Thanks, hadn't thought of Task Manager, though the 99% was during the boot up process - would CTRL-ALT-DEL get one to TM dialogue?
Anyway, did a power down, and after getting it to reboot...
Hope the suggestions here work, but as mentioned in my recent comment... hard to tell. Maybe if I don't see any new apps over a 30 day period, I can declare success.

Thanks. Tried these both. Perhaps they will prevent future installs, but hard to tell so far. Now need to figure out how to uninstall.
In researching another problem, I discovered that on one computer (haven't checked others) we have several apps installed.

Update: Reinstalled two of the Win 10 updates prior to Anniversary issue - no go, same problem with HD Graphics Driver.
Rather than try again with the next Win10 build, went to Intel website (mfr...
Thanks. Should be a quite useful tool to have in back pocket for some time.
All great info. That downloader seems to be the ticket. Since the tool looks remarkably like the Microsoft ISO download site, are they sourcing directly from MS realtime, or are they drawing from a...
Is there any source for a prior version of the Win 10 ISO?
Here is why... Did a fresh install of Win 10 Anniversary. When installing the Intel HD graphic driver for the onboard graphics with a...
