How can I stop receiving Windows 11 Insider Preview builds?

[Elliot B.]

I am using Windows 10 build 21390 (May 2021).

 

I believe I have the Windows Insider Program disabled.

 

 

 

However, Windows Update keeps downloading, and wanting me to install, Windows 11 Insider Preview builds.

 

 

Any idea how I can stop this?

It looks like you used some registry trick or maybe a tweak program to block telemetry in Windows, unfortunately most of these programs to tweak privacy in Windows 10 do more damage than good, here is a good article that will help you reset your settings https://www.msftnext.com/fix-blank-or-empty-insider-program-settings-page-in-windows-10/

 

First you have to accept that your machine was tricked into being enrolled with Windows Insider, so fix it first, then you can "leave" the program.

You could try leaving the insider program with this little app:
