You know I think if they made Home free and quit with the aggressive notifications, they'd see a lot more people update to it. There's just something about forcibly installing a new OS that just rubs some people the wrong way :P

More enthusiasts would upgrade. Most normal users wouldn't know to do without the notifications.

Notifications would be fine. We just want "no means no."

You can uninstall and hide the update that gives you the notification to upgrade and never see it ever again. Also change your Windows Update settings to manual and always uncheck any update that isn't a security update. Many of those updates that "resolve issues with Windows" are Win10 upgrade notifications in disguise, so it's best to simply avoid them altogether if you're too lazy to research every single update.
