    I get a windows 10 update every hour, why?


    I get a windows 10 update and health report every hour, which grinds away at my hard disk for no reason, irrespective of active hours.The only way I have found to stop it, is to disable it in tasks, and enable it the next day and do a manual update.Surely this a fault that is easy to stop with an update?

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
