I have returned from Wind 10 to Wind 8, but Wind spontaneously have upgraded up to Win 10 again. How to block spontaneous upgrade from Wind 8 to Wind 10?

Probably just need to backup your data and do a clean install. Most issues should be taken care of then.

Don't think a problem like that would be a compatibility problem between 10 and a HP computer. Would be the best to do like john35 said, a clean install.

What does it mean "a clean install"? I have Wind 8 in the motherboard of HP comp. I can only upgrade Win 8 to Win 10.

Upgrade to 10... and then go through the reset process for a clean install.

Although, during the upgrade process, there should be an option for a clean install rather than an upgrade that leaves your programs intact.

Nope, haven't tried it as I have been running 10 for about 6 months now. It should work just fine. But again, you probably just need to backup your data and do a fresh install of 10 to get everything working correctly.

I did Win 10 reinstall with saving of my files, but it does not help.

To do a fresh install, you need to backup your files, wipe the drive and reinstall windows. Then put your files back on.
