Less control over your OS. :-(
Especially if you have the Home Edition which means no disabling (notify
only) of automatic updates. If you want control over updates, you will
need the Pro version of Windows 10.
Well, isn't that special.

Guess you'll need a 3rd party firewall (not under Microsoft's control)
that blocks Microsoft's WSUS servers. You have to defend yourself
against Microsoft's "resistance is futile, you will adapt to service us"
queer attitude. Either bend over and let Microsoft service you or fight
back. Of course, if Microsoft doesn't get humping satisfaction, they
could disable features or cripple Windows 10 if you don't let them
service you. Or, if you have a Home Edition and want control without
having to fight back with a 3rd party firewall, buy the Pro edition and
get serviced another way.

And many of us just sit back and wait for the release to really see what
will happen. I can't wait to see what predictions/bull **** were close.

Ken, when you looked in the Windows 10 Preview control panels,
what did the Windows Update control panel show you ?

OK, here is a snapshot of the Win10 10130 control panels.

There is *no* Windows Update control panel.

It would be pretty hard to control updates, without a control panel.

In Windows 8.1, the update settings are several levels down in "System
and Secure". I would suspect the update settings in Windows 10 are in
"Security and Maintenance", but several levels down.

Remember all of the post when Window 8 came out about there being no way
to create a CD without third party software. Everybody know now that
that the alarmist were wrong and Window 8 can create CD's.

I suspect like pelosi said about a bill that was past in Congress in
2009, paraphrased "You will have to approve it, to learn what it
contains". With Windows 10, you will have to install the final released
version to know what it will do, and where the settings to do it are
located.
