Windows 10: delay updates

the laptop does not usually connect to the internet.

sadly i need to connect for a few minutes to put avg on before i download adobe photoshop.
photoshop will be used for at most 5 weeks and does not (so i am told) need to be connected all the time - just occasionaly while they check i paid i think!

Then the laptop will be back to splendid isolation.
so i do NOT wish any disruptive updates that i certainly do not need.

on the internet ( on another computer) i read i can go to services.msc - windows update - general tab and choose disabled.

how long does that last?
do i NEED to have a microsoft account to use this win 10 computer on the internet?
thanks

Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Best regards.


And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
