Just to add to this whole comical situation Microsoft has put everyone
in with the auto upgrades.

Friend of that does a lot of work for me, forgot his business pc on and
online, and hadn't pushed that annoying cancel upgrade button from win7
to 10. Well, be it that he's now on win10, along with, me sending a
messenger in a vehicle 100km with a drawing was faster than getting an
email or fax through to him.
