Windows 10: How to turn off Windows Update permanently

Previous windows were great, without regular major updates but copying apple and all the antivirus companies has made Windows awful to use. IF they want to copy someone they should copy Linux!


On a modern PC/Laptop windows is great for a few years but then it is awful. I have a few old PCs and find almost every windows update slows the PC further or bricks it and you have to spend several hours resetting. Balancing update malice vs hackers, I would rather risk the hackers on my older non-essential PCs as hackers are easier to deal with than microsoft. Please can someone provide a simple update to this article:

If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?

Is there any way to turn off Win10 updates PERMANENTLY?

I have taken several steps to attempt to permanently disable Win10 Updates.... but every attempt seems to fail.

To date I have

• told Windows I want to manually approve any updates.
• turned off windows updates.
• DELETED Win10 Update assistant (only to have it show back up again)
• DISABLED Win10 Upddates in Task scheduler. (Only to have it re-enable itself.)
  
• DELETED Win10 Updates in Task Scheduler. (Only to have it show back up again)

The only thing I haven't done is revert back to Win8 which seemed to be a far more stable OS.

Win10 keeps telling me that I need an 8g "security update" and that I need to free up space on my C: drive ..... something I am not willing to do. I have put up with this for the last 3 months.... is there really any way to PERMANENTLY disable / delete
/ say "NO!!!!!!!!!" to Win10 Updates?

Thanks in advance for your helpful responses. Trolls.... yeah well, I know you're out there.... you're just as easily ignored.
