Windows10 - How to Disable Automatic Updates

I personally detest my PC computer from updating couple with the fact that I just upgraded to window 10 OS and Microsoft as automatically set Window10 to update automatically any time it kisses internet connection.

I can tell you that if you are such that manage internet connections, 10GB data will get exhausted within 3 days on your Windows 10 PC without you downloading anything. It’s actually weird you know.

Fortunately, there’s a way to stop Windows from automatically updating itself. Here’s how to do it:

1. Click on the Windows Start button and select Settings.
2. Within Windows 10 Settings, click on Update & Security.
3. In Update & Security, click on the Advanced Option link towards the bottom of the right window inside the Windows Update section. You should find yourself in the Windows Update section by default.
4. In the Advanced Options section, Click “Choose how updates are delivered“
5. Turn off using the toggle.

After this, Microsoft servers will no longer push updates to your system as you have specified that you own a metered connection that is chargeable for additional usage.

Note: This method is valid only for users who exclusively use Wi-Fi to connect to the internet. It is not applicable for users connected to internet through Ethernet cable.
