Data Usage for the past 30 days

Hi

Configuring data usage is no longer available in Windows 10. We suggest to either getting a program that measures data usage or contacting your ISP to check for options on measuring data usage.

Data usage

Hello Selfina,

You can view all the Windows Updates that has been installed on your computer through the
Update history. To check, please follow these steps:

• Open Settings.
• Select Update & Security.
• Open Update history.

To help you reduce your data usage, please make sure that your WiFi network connection is set as metered.
A metered connection is an Internet connection that has a data limit associated with it. For more information, you may check this article:
Metered connections in Windows 10.

Note: Metered connection will let you decide when to install Windows Updates to control your data usage.

Should you need further assistance, feel free to get back to us.

 

Cloud Data usage on wifi

Hi CameronWyman,

This could be for a number of reasons:

1. Do you have OneDrive? If you do, it could be backing up some of your data?

2. Windows 10 does updates routinely and weekly, it downloads files

3. Other programs / apps could be doing updates...

What I suggest is setting this as a metered connection by following the steps below:

By setting up a metered connection you will be adjusting the way Windows 10 communicates with the wifi hotspot and ultimately use less data and control data usage.
