Attachment 369171 (http://www.sevenforums.com/attachments/windows-updates-activation/369171-windows-update-trying-upgrade-win10-itself-wxupgradebyitself.png) It seems according to the update history, my computer is trying to upgrade itself to Windows 10 automatically. Can it actually do this without asking me? I didn't reserve the upgrade so it shouldn't be trying to upgrade. Did it fail noticing that I didn't reserve the upgrade?

I ran some other things that I'm honestly too tired to remember but even when it seemed the validation was fixed it would come back. Even now when the poppup occurs, in my system info it tells me Windows is activated. So I figured instead of continuing to try out...
