    Create Windows Update Shortcut in Windows 10


    say please? *Wink and its (you), and its (read), I hate sms speak.

    Yes I see what you mean, I still have not sorted that one out myself. But I think if MS get enough moans in feedback, they may change it.

    Windows Update is deprecated in the Control Panel for Windows 10, and cannot be added back.

    Yes, it's your choice. You can install Windows 10 or not.

  5. Thanks, Brink. Nice work. This is one of the first things I searched for after installing Windows 10.

    Any chance you could create a shortcut to toggle Tablet Mode on/off?

  7. Yes, I know. But one click would be easier than two - I'm lazy. *Smile

    Also, I'm very "left-centric". I'd prefer a single-click shortcut that I can pin to Start10 and/or taskbar.

    Thank you Andy, and welcome to Ten Forums. *Smile

    If you want "Pin to taskbar" in the context menu, using explorer ms-settings:windowsupdate works best.
