This will prevent Windows 11 from auto-installing.  Just reverse the steps (in a few years) when Windows 10 isn't looking so good anymore!

I've had the Windows 11 update offered to me on one system that I
remember.  I declined for the time being.  My notebook computer where
I would update to it is not upgradable to Windows 11 without jumping
through some extra hoops to make it work.  It's working fine on
Windows 10 and so will stay there for a while yet.
