    Enable or Disable Windows Update Automatic Updates in Windows 10


    Macguru,

    Windows 10 Home users would have to use OPTION TWO in the tutorial since it doesn't include group policy.

    If you have the red "some settings are managed by your organization" message in advanced options, then it worked.

    The "Available updates will be downloaded and installed automatically." message you see in Windows Update is just a generic note, and is not what determines if the setting worked.

    I did install it via option 2. I will have to wait and see what happens when new stuff is rolled out. Much more encouraged now! Thanks again Shawn !

    I used the reg file and set to notify to download.

    When I clicked check for updates, It automatically downloaded and installed, But It should ask me to (download and install) or not rite?

    It should have worked in the first attempt itself?

    Brink, None of the methods worked for me correctly. When I check for updates it automatically downloads and install them.

    In that case, set it by Group Policy to see how it does in case something went wrong while merging the .reg file. I just tested again on my system, and it's still working.

    On RTM, I haven't been able to get it to work, either.

    Then again, it randomly started working on the original 10240 build, so who knows. Maybe it will work at some point. But as of now, I haven't gotten it working on RTM.

    Is this for a Home or Pro edition?

    Spoke too soon. It just started working. What the hell.

    EDIT: I'm using Pro x64.

    I couldn't get it to work with the .REG file, so I did it in Group Policy.

    It appeared not to work either, but after 15 minutes, it kicked in. It's not as instantaneous as previous versions were. I wonder why. I even did a GPUPDATE /FORCE, and it changed nothing.

    It can sometimes take a bit to kick in. Especially if Windows Update was already downloading something.

    I glad to hear it's working for you now. *Smile

    Hi

    I unblocked it and merged the reg file and restarted the computer. But still did not work for me. *Sad

    I tried the group policy method. Did not work.

    I will try again
