[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1294404, member: 141969"] I was under the impression that Windows 10 Home does not allow the user to disable updates? Are you using a non-Microsoft tool to disable updates? What you can do with Windows 10 Home is to enable the [b]I am using a metered internet connection[/b] setting (somewhere on the "Advanced settings" panel). This stops Windows downloading updates automatically, but it still shows you what is pending. You can then choose to initiate installation of the updates at a time that is convenient for you. This is how I have my Windows 10 laptop setup. Allegedly this setting only [i]delays[/i] installation of the updates for some period of time (days/weeks), and does not permanently prevent installation of the updates. Updates have not been 100% reliable. There have been a couple of occasions where Windows disappeared into hyperspace when the system restarted. It was necessary to boot from my Win10 install USB in order to recover the system. :mad: -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
