Accidentally downloaded the 'Windows 10 upgrade' for a future upgrade. Found that certain programs will not work on it. Tried to stop the upgrade, but there is an icon that says if I shut down the computer, Windows 10 will install. How can I prevent this from happening?

Excel 2010: I have templates created for multiple scatter graphs. In a multi-sheet workbook, I want to apply a certain template to a selected graph. To do so, I have to go to 'Design'. If I do, Excel shuts down with the message 'encountered an error... Windows will inform you bla-bla'. This has happened many times. I run Windows 10 on a Dell Inspiron i7 machine. What could be causing this issue and how can I resolve it?
