Hi,
I cannot leave the windows insider program. I've tried all emails that I've ever signed into on my computer, and all of them just say "This email address is not registered as a windows insider". I only pressed the join button to the windows insider program to see what it would do, I didn't sign up with an email or anything. It won't let me out. I would really like to get out because it's restricting my updates! I need help, please.

    Lots of users in the same situation.

    MS Insider servers issues are causing havoc.

    Insider Program can't be reached in Windows Settings

    this worked well for me in January after I had tried everything to get out of 11 hell. Here is what I posted then (with a link). I get Win 10 updates regularly and everything works great!

    posted 1/2022:

    I tried for so long to get out of the Windows Insider Program (that I never signed up for) but finally found a solution that worked for me. The link came from my Microsoft friend. I am on Win 10 Home. I used this link and followed instructions below: "You can set the target feature upgrade version to the current or a newer version of Windows 10 to ensure that you stayed on a specific version of Windows 10." (This fix did not turn off all future Win10 updates) https://allthings.how/how-to-stop-windows-11-update-from-installing-on-your-windows-10-pc/#:~:text=In%20the%20Services%20window%2C%20scroll,status%20to%20stop%20the%20service

    Just before rebooting I deleted the whole contents of: C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download

    I did not have to do anything else and Windows 11 no longer tries to load with reboot/update!!!! My last 2 update & reboots installed only Win 10 updates!!!

    Please remove me from windows insider program!

    I'm logged into https://insider.windows.com/ with the same email I signed up for the program but I can't log out.

    The only way for you to leave the Insider Program

    right now is to do a clean install of the stable build

    of Windows 11. Backup any important files, etc.

    Then use: https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows11
