Windows 10: Delaying Feature Updates

I have just installed 1903 (Windows 10 Pro) from an ISO disc and wish to delay feature updates using GPedit

I would some help with the following instructions given by MS

When Selecting Semi-Annual Channel:
- You can defer receiving Feature Updates for up to 365 days.
- To prevent Feature Updates from being received on their scheduled time, you can temporarily pause them. The pause will remain in effect for 35 days from the start time provided.
- To resume receiving Feature Updates which are paused, clear the start date field.

For instance if I take the first option to delay receiving updates for x days does this mean I should not to enter a date for the 2nd option "Pause Preview Builds or Feature updates starting" ie Are the 2 options incompatable or if I can enter a date as well as delaying updates and if so how do I calculate what that Start date is and what does it mean

Many thanks

:)

 

Why would I want to use the Snip Delay feature?

Excellent! Thank You

 

Why would I want to use the Snip Delay feature?

The delay feature is one way to allow capture screen image at later time so you can display a conext/popup/file menu etc...
However, it is possible to do a snip without using the delay feature and in fact I think it is better that you have a complete control exactly when you want to snip.

1. Run snipping tool
2. If the screen appears greyed out (snip mode) then press <ESC> else continue step 3
3. Display context menu/Start menu/File Menu etc... Hold down <CTRL> and press <Print Screen> then do the snip.
