Windows 10: How to block Windows 10 1903 build on Intel Win 10 PC stick 32GB variant

Greetings,


I was wondering what are my options to block the Windows 10 1903 build from installing on the mentioned device. The problem occurs, after the build was released, Win 10 OS still reserves 7 - 8GB of space on Win 10 1809 build. The device has a lack of storage because of this. How do I block the build and future Win 10 updates on the device?


I was thinking about these options:


1. New firewall rule to block inbound windows 10 updates from Microsft update servers, with port blockage. - I did not try this option yet!

2. Registry to block future WIn 10 updates -Tried and not working, still pushes 1903 build through!

3. Settings/update and security/Metered connection and semi-annual 365 updates - Tried and not working, still pushes the build through!


Thank you in advance for all of your advices and help.

:)

 

Intel Compute Stick 32GB version - How to disable Windows 1903 build?

Greetings,

I was wondering if I could completely disable Windows 1903 build from installing on the after mentioned device. The problem occurs when I upgrade from build 1809 to 1903 I run out of storage on the device, which only has 32GB. After 1903 build update, the
storage decreases from 16GB (Build 1809) to only 6-7GB (Build 1903). I tried to manually disable Windows update from installing, but it still pushes the newest build 1903 trough.

Thank you for your assistance.

 

Windows 10 USB boot

Hi there, am not a windows 10 expert. I have a pc in the bedroom on windows 10, I messed up the bootloader trying to fix the xp on that system.

System wont boot, trying to repair via win 10 usb installer.

Downloaded the media creation tool to install windows 10 installer on usb stick. Not compatible with a host of usb sticks I have. Tried the usb sticks that others use, but I think they use rufus; as the media creation tool by win 10 does not detect the usb stick.

So quick question, the win10 machine i am trying to repair the bootloader is a win7 upgraded to win10.
If i were to use the usb win10 installer to "repair installation" does the version of the iso downloaded via the media creation tool matter?

There is three options:
Windows 10
Windows 10 Home
Windows 10 N

Also is there a step by step instead of using rufus as I want to try an alternative method of creating a usb win 10 installer. Preferably with more compatibility.

System is a asus sabertooth 990 (r2?) with AMD phenom X 6.

Also is there any other software I can load onto the usb that can repair the bootloader easily?
That would be the ideal alternative. Thanks

 

Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
