So, today we will try to find out howthere is a disabling of updates in Windows 10. This question is of interest to many users, because the operating system is getting more and more spread every day. And you need to be able to manage it. And updates, too. Maybe you do not want anything downloaded and installed on the computer without the knowledge. This is quite normal phenomenon, only to cope with the task is not so easy. You'll have to try hard, otherwise you will not solve the problem.
How do I disable Windows Update?In Windows 7 and 8, everything is extremely simple and understandable - do not want something to be downloaded? It's enough to "poshamanit" over "Update Center", disable several parameters there (or change them at your own discretion), and then save the settings. And that's how you get the desired result.
But Windows 10 is a completely differentconversation. The problem is that this operating system deprives users of the so-called freedom of choice. What are we talking about? Disabling automatic updating in Windows 10 is not such an easy task. Microsoft Corporation took away the possibility of easy management of its product. And now you need to "prepare for battle" seriously, so that the update does not happen. Disabling it is not so easy. What happens to the operating system?
We have already found out with you - "Windows 10" does not allow quick and easy disabling of updates. What's happening? And do we need to deal with our today's issue?
The answer is yes.To be engaged in the given process costs even to exclude occurrence of new errors and malfunctions with the computer. This is by no means the rarest phenomenon. They are very often after "updates". And this despite the fact that in itself, "Windos 10" is not famous for its stability.
How is the update process going? Hidden.The system does everything itself, the user may not be aware of what is happening. That is, it's worth upgrading out - it's immediately loaded and placed on the computer. No messages, no alerts, warnings or windows. The computer can just reboot suddenly and that's it. This is a signal that the "update" has been downloaded and installed. It's so hard. But generally, the disabling of updates in Windows 10 is possible. How to produce it?
Of course, since we are dealing with "Winds", inwhich is "Update Center", you need to take advantage of this. Yes, it is not easy to realize our idea easily and simply, but it's worth trying. Do you want to manage updates yourself in Windows 10? Tired of the computer to download new documents and put them without your knowledge, and then there are failures and malfunctions? Then it's time to work a little with the settings of the "Center."
Go to this application and find what you needtab. To do this, you need to open the "Advanced Options". In the window that appears, you will need to set certain settings that will help you cope with our today's task.
Disabling Automatic Updates in Windows10 occurs in several stages. First, set the "Notify me when my computer reboots" option. Now the system will automatically notify you that it is ready to complete the installation of updates. Next, the setting "When upgrading the system to offer updates for other Microsoft products" is removed, a checkmark is next to "Postpone updates". Ready? Then click on the bottom line in the window - "How and when to receive". A switch appears here. Note the "From several places". It is necessary to disable this function, and save the changes. That's all, we can move on.
The next question is how the trip occursdriver updates in Windows 10. Often this parameter also has to be removed. Fortunately, the new operating system allows for the time being to manage the download and installation of drivers for computer components. It's not so difficult to disable this option, it's enough to know which add-on to apply.
First, press the Win + R key combination.A command line appears before us. In it, type "rundll32 newdev.dll, DeviceInternetSettingUi", then press Enter (or "Run"). A window with settings will appear on the screen. It sets the options "No, give a choice," then "Never." Save changes - you can close the found service.
In general, this is how the trip occursautomatic update in Windows 10. Now the computer will always look for drivers on the computer and install them, but to the "Center" to access only when there is no such. And, of course, you will have the opportunity to manage downloads.
This is not the end of the process.If you leave everything as it is at the moment, you will not get any result. More precisely, it will be, but ineffective. To cope with the task as accurately as possible, you will need a special utility to disable Windows 10 updates.
This is an official application.It is called Show or Hide updates. Download and install it on your computer. After that, start and scan the computer. The program to turn off the updates of Windows 10 works like a scanner. It looks for possible files, and then suggests to hide them. Is the scan complete? Click Hide, and then in the next dialog you need to select the necessary documents. You can hide everything, you can only partially. Save the changes. It's all. Now the marked files will not appear in the "Center".
So far everything was simple and easy.Then disabling updates in Windows 10 Home (and not only) is somewhat similar to dances with tambourines. After all, the process is not over yet, only the most difficult steps remain, which will have to be taken to address the task set before us today. For example, you can set a limit connection to the Internet. Then "Center" will not be able to automatically search for files with their subsequent installation.
How to do it?First go to "Settings" - "Network and Internet". Next, refer to "Wireless Network" and look for "Additional" there. In principle, if you look closely at the opened window, you can quickly find the answer for the task set before us. You must check the box next to "Set as limit". And everything, it is possible to be saved. After applying this trick, the "dozen" will no longer be able to independently search for and install updates.
The tricks that can come in handy when solvingour today's task, are still not over. Now, you should consult the Group Policy setting on the computer. It can also help to disable updates in Windows 10. However, rarely anyone uses this option.
First you need to find an editorGroup Policy. Press Win + R, execute gpedit.msc there. Next, open the "Configuration" - "Administrative Templates". Then you need to go to the "Components", and then refer to the already known to us inscription "Update Center."
Pay attention to the right side of the window.There you will see a lot of lines, among which you will have to find the "Automatic update settings". It is worthwhile to open this parameter, before you pop up a window in which we will work further. Check the box next to "Enabled." Next, look just below. There you will see "Options". The list should pay attention to two points. The very first "Download Notifications". It will show messages about searching and downloading documents by the "Update Center". But it is better to refer to the latter "Allow the local administrator to select options." After the selection you will have an additional dialog box in which you can check the "Disable updates" check box.
Another trick that will help cope with theour current task is to completely disable Windows 10 updates using the computer's registry. Here, just a few mouse clicks are enough to carry out the idea to the fullest.
Open the command line with Win + R,then run the regedit command. Before you open the registry. Go to it in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE section. In it, you need to find the Policies folder (it's in the Software), then look in Microsoft and choose Windows there.
In the folder, create a new section calledWindowsUpsate. Inside, make one more point and name it just AU. Now go to it. In the window (in its right part), click on the field and create there a DWORD file called NoAutoUpdate. What value should he assign? We put in the corresponding field 1, we save the parameter. That's all.
The last step that will help us to makedisabling is the denial of the WindowsUpdate service. It is considered at the moment 100% effective. To implement the idea, the first thing to do is to open a command line and execute a command called services.msc, then go to "Services" in the appeared window.
Now we move to the very end of the list.There, find the "Update Center". Double click on the inscription - and before us the necessary settings. Pay attention to the "Launch type" window. It is necessary here to set "Disconnected". We keep the changes and enjoy the result. True, now "Windows Update" will start to display an error message from time to time. This is a normal phenomenon, it should not be frightened.
