I upgraded to Windows 11 and found it to be pretty annoying. I rolled back to Windows 10 using the "go back" function. It reverted, but immediately downloaded Windows 11 and now wants to reboot to upgrade to 11 again. I cannot find any way to prevent this. I paused windows update while I search for a solution, but turning of updater altogether is a terrible solution. How can I stop it from reupgrading without disabling all updates?

I don't believe it's possible if you even check for patches manually Microsoft will flag you as a candidate for Windows 11. There is no way to undo that.

This is truly disturbing. I was fine as long as I continued with Win 10. I upgraded, believing the statement that I could roll back any time within 10 days, only to discover that a roll back now causes me to lose all Window updates unless I go to Win 11. Total typical MS BS.
