Hi,
With so many things going on, I was not aware how far my system was on
the way of becoming X until MS popped up a dialog saying that I am ready
for the upgrade. Indeed, there was a setup.exe waiting to run and
install 4 GB of files on my disk that I was not aware of. As of now, I
have no plans to go that route.
How to proceed? I discovered that there is a simple program that gets
rid of this forced install, namely GWX Control Panel, download from:

I do want to control my operating system, and have a say when and if to
install a new one. MS should give us similar functionality.
Best regards,
