Windows 10 - How to remove notification

New Home · 2015-08-22 19:18:44

A week or so ago the little icon 'reminding' me to upgrade to Windows 10 appeared on my taskbar. I have no intention whatsoever of installing it, so how do I get rid of the icon? I've tried right-clicking on it but there's no option to do so, as far as I can see. Any suggestions? Thanks a million.

If you're using Windows 7 at the minute, search the installed Windows updates for KB3035583 and uninstall it. Then right click it and choose Hide This Update.
