Social networks have erupted in recent weeks with complaints about a tricky way Microsoft is using to get people to upgrade (for free) to Windows 10. According to a variety of reports, it seems that when users are prompted by the pop-up notification informing them of the upgrade, clicking the red “X” button in the top right hand corner will actually begin the upgrade process instead of closing the box. No doubt this has caused confusion to users as many, for decades, have equated clicking the “X” to mean no or to cancel. If you don’t want to receive the upgrade, or want to do it on your own time schedule, you might be interested in these instructions on how to prevent it.
