    Permanently disable auto-updates and restart on Window 10?


    Please instruct on how to permanently disable auto-update and restart for lab pc which needs to stay on unless told otherwise, operating system is Windows 10? I have tried other solutions which only worked partially or temporarily.

    :)

  2. Windows 10 auto restarts

    "Between all suggestions, including the one there, there is nothing that has worked." I hate to sound reduntant but I just had to repeat myself since it still applies.
    An additional factore that may have bearing is that at some point my system converted to trying to boot off of my external drive if it is plugged in. Nothing has worked in attempting to resolve that issue either. As I said it may or may not have a bearing on the restart issue.*sarc

    Windows 10 auto restarts

    Supposedly this solution works: Disable automatic restart Windows 10 - Microsoft Community

    I did those steps (going to gpedit.msc, etc..) because I want to disable the computer from auto-restarting. There is a bug in Windows 10.

    I access my computer remotely sometimes from my phone. Yet if I'm not near the computer, and auto updates restarted the computer, then the computer isn't going to fully turn on! I have BitLocker enabled on my hard drive. This means that I need to be at the computer, locally, to type in the password, to start up the computer. Auto updates causes the computer to restart, yet BitLocker prevents it from fully starting back up. This issue needs to be reviewed by Microsoft for some solution in Windows 10.

    But I found that link up there earlier today, and that is definitely a more preferred option, assuming that it works! I hope it does!

    How to disable Windows Update Permanently from Windows 10 OS?

    Hi,

    I would like to ask question on How to disable Windows Update Permanently from Windows 10 OS?

    Already tried the following:

    • Stop and Disable Windows Update from services.msc
    • Disable Windows Update from gpedit.msc

    But once we restarted the Units, It will perform Windows Updates.

    Some of our Applications are not working properly after these updates.

    Thanks,

    Elrey
