Windows Central Question

I managed to do this with my L1520. First I installed wp10tp yesterday, but didn't like it, even couldn't have my contacts restored. So, today I used Lumia Software Recovery, then using windows insider started downloading GDR2 and deleted windows insider from the phone, so now I have only GDR2. My problem is I wanted to do the same with my wife's L822. The update is downloaded and is trying to install WP10 at once, without GDR2. I don't want it. So how can I cancel this update if it's already downloaded but not set up. If I don't cancel it, it will be set up automatically on the 15th of April. Does anybody know what to do?
 
Not use Windows Insider, period.

GDR2, which is cool, is only a step to the 10 preview. The way things look now, it's either you get GDR2, then 10, or not.

Backup your device ... HARD RESET ... then restore from Backup >> it'll be GONE

Worked for me !

... and stay away from Windows Insider, if you haven't worked out the fallback.
