Abort pending Windows 11 upgrade download
Hi, whatever I've tried I cannot stop my non-Insider PC downloading Win 11.
I'm not now signed up as an Insider- and I've never had an Insider build on my PC. I did sign up as an Insider temporarily just to try to get a copy of Win 11, then had problems deregistering. Several attempts and re-registering, and I managed to escape.
Checking updates manually my non-Insider PC tries to download Win 11.
I've reset windows updates (as per tutorial) so SoftwareDistribution\Download is empty and renamed SoftwareDistribution as well.
There's no pending.xml in C:\Windows\WinSxS
Other than returning to manual Windows Updates, how could I stop Win 11 downloading?
Update checks via WU Minitool or the hide/show update tool from MS do not detect the Win 11 update.
Thanks! (build 21H1)
