Windows 10: How to avoid Windows updates from overwriting personal settings

Windows updates almost always overwrites my personal settings, such as power and screen lock settings, or sometimes touchpad settings. Is there a way to install Window updates and keep/retain my personal settings or preferences? It's pretty annoying to have to reset my custom power plan or turn off the touchpad, etc. Who know what else was changed and that I haven't noticed, yet.


Thanks in advance.

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
