Good morning. Since I started here a lot of computers are getting Windows 10 prompts. I have done everything I can think of to get rid of them but they continue to be a pest. Here is what I have done:

Verified not in WSUS

Disable next Windows Upgrade in GPO is enabled

Set a specific Intranet location for updates in WSUS

Created the DisableGWX Key

Made sure computers are in correct category in Active Directory to apply GPO

When I check the computers 3035583 is installed. I go through the uninstall and reboot but it continues to reinstall automatically. WSUS does not have 3035583 listed and I cannot find it in the catalog either to download and decline it. I dont know what to do from here.

Although I'm adding a couple new articles, the link to these duplicate questions are much more complete:

The Microsoft KB article below was referenced from this article:

Latest IE Patch Might Be To Blame for Windows 10 Upgrade Ads - 03/10/2016
By Chris Paoli, the site producer for Redmondmag.com and MCPmag.com.
From RedmondMag:

In a Microsoft blog post released late January, Matt Barlow, general manager of Xbox Marketing, also included a link for those shops that want to block the app from appearing on network-connected systems. He also promised that the GWX will not appear for large enterprises running Windows Enterprise edition or those that are using onsite system updating tools.
