    How can I control which Updates install, and when, instead of installing automatically?


    I'm using a HP Envy notebook with Windows 10 Home build number 18363.900.


    Windows Updates are installing automatically. I only find out when the notebook asks me when I want it to restart. I have no control over which updates get installed and which don't.


    There've been some recent issues. Twice now I've had to "roll back" updates after Windows wouldn't load. One of the problem areas was Microsoft Edge, which I've uninstalled I'm never likely to use it.


    There are no Windows Update settings for me to change, other than installing updates to other software at the same time.


    On my previous machine Windows 8, upgraded to Windows 10 when the free upgrade was available, I could review the latest updates before they installed, select which ones I wanted and decide when they were installed. How can I get these options in my current version of Windows?

    :)
