I finally got my main workstation upgraded yesterday to Windows 10.  I ended up
downloading the latest ISO from Microsoft, then disabled all programs in my
startup.  That seemed to do the trick and allowed me to finally upgrade.  Then
I had to get all my stuff working again in startup.

I got to finally see the Xbox360 emulator work after the upgrade.  It seems the
graphics are a bit faster on Windows 10.

It sounds like you need to run the same program I have been on my Windows 10
VMs called "DontSleep".  Download and put that program in your startup and you
can prevent Microsoft from rebooting your computer after updates.
