My understanding was that the only option
was to delay the updates for business testing,
but that choosing not to install them is not
an option.



That's why I stated it as a "token level of control",
because I don't know the details.

With the Home/Core, it installs the Windows Update
immediately. Then informs you that a reboot is needed,
within the next 24 hours or something. And it will reboot
on its own eventually, just to show you who is boss.

The Pro is supposed to be somehow better. There isn't much room
to define a different policy (without the user being
in full control).

Win10 has updates preset to automatic, no control

Win10 Pro has use configurable options.

In the Enterprise environment multiple 'control' options are available
for Win10.
Mission Critical devices - IT choose what to update and when. Also
option to only deploy Security updates.

End User devices - IT controls Windows Updates

Windows Update for Business - IT controls; updates available in two
different distribution rings, configurable maintenance windows for
updating, peer to peer delivery, integrates with existing tools

-- Windows Update for Business is free for Windows Pro and Windows
Enterprise customers.
