MS unwanted updates tonight...

| You most definitely can stop the Microsoft updates. For years. | It might be tricky to be sure. You don't control the system on Win10 the way you could with earlier versions. And even earlier versions were not trustworthy. Case in point: Several years ago there was big excitement when a lot of IT people, who had specifically disabled Windows Update service, found it installing updates. (And this pre-dated Win10. It was probably on XP or Vista. I don't remember.) Microsoft responded that Windows Update *itself* was being updated, against the wishes and without the knowledge of IT people. MS essentially said, "Don't worry. We know you disabled Windows Update. We're just bypassing that to take care of a few things we think are important." So Windows Update was bypassing Windows Update. |
