1. if your computer is a worthwhile model, it is conceivable that some people would pay more for a Windows 7 or 8, than a Windows 10.

2. then using that money, transfer all your stuff to a new machine.

Consult a pro to backup all your data and software. Basically a full disk copy is best.

I am mainly a Mac user. But I have windows 10 software also. Due to my unique situation of emulation software, and also inexperience, I am unable to stop the constant updates , freezes and forced reboots.

There are those who like the convenience of automatic updates. I am never one of those.
