    Help! Windows 10 update service option keeps reverting to a disabled state on the Registry...


    Please help me, I have been dealing with not being able to play Forza Horizon 3 for a long time. For some reason the techies that I went to when I replaced my motherboard did something to the windows 10 options. The Update Service just refuses to enable.

    Microsoft to make Windows 10 updates mandatory

    Go into Services and change Windows Update Service to either disabled or manual start. If you have Pro u can select deferred update under the Windows Update advanced options menu.

    Then there's always the registry. lol

    Windows 8 failure configuring updates and reverting

    I agree 8 is awful! It's not for me though... I replaced a broken screen in a Win 8 laptop that was given to me and I am going to give it for free to someone that can't afford one so they can do homework at home. Yes I took it from 8 to 8.1 back on 10/09/2014. This is what I posted there...

    "Great post! I found a similar one. I would like to point out that you may want to edit your OP...

    1. Step 1 should read to disable AUTOMATIC updates, not disable manual updates.

    2. KB2871398 should really read KB2871389

    I would like to say that KB2917499 may also be needed as it was in my case. I also had to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter after installing those 2 updates. After these steps I was able to begin my 8.1 download from the Microsoft store. I don't know if it made a difference or not, but I also went into the Bios and disabled "Secure Boot."

    It was a helpful post. Thanks!

    Help! Windows 10 update service option keeps reverting to a disabled state on the Registry...

    Windows 7 services

    You should just know which services to set to manual, there are a ton of them, starting with xp. The time service is the first one... unless you set it up properly, just disable it. Then remote registry, I don't need anyone else messing with my registry... disable, I don't use themes, disable, there are a few others too, then things like adobe update service, not needed, disable... it's not that hard to figure out what you can disable, or at least put to manual.
    Edit: if you need suggestions, get The Ultimate Troubleshooter, not free, but it will show you how to do much of this.
