    The major WIn10 updates - 'creator' update, 'fall update', 'spring update' - those ones.

    Is there an option to manually decide to postpone them, or skip til next one?

    Thanks.

    excel not auto recovering and manually saving

    Hi,

    The concern you have encountered with Excel not auto saving may be due to a corrupted file or a misconfigured setting.

    May we ask if you have 3rd party software running when using Excel? If yes, we suggest to temporarily disable it to isolate the issue.

    Any changes made on your computer prior to the issue?

    Have you tried any possible troubleshooting steps? If yes, what are those steps and did you get any error messages?

    You can turn-on the auto save option by the following steps:

    • Open Excel
    • Go to File then Options
    • Under Save option, check the 'Save AutoRecovery information in every' option
    the best way to check when auto save is disabled is to hover over the toggle and read the reason that the popup tool tip identifies. Simply follow the steps provided in this

    article
    .

    According to this
    article
    the autosave function will be disabled when the file is in the old file format .xls.

    Kindly keep us posted with the results.

    Regards.

    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.

    Possible to disable Windows10 auto-updates, and opt for manual?

    disable windows10 update

    Hi Sathish, do all 3 steps below to disable Windows 10 Automatic Updates . . .

    1.

    Open the Settings App

    Go to Accounts - Sign-in Options

    Choose to sign in with a Local Account rather than a Microsoft Account.

    2.

    In the Settings App

    Go to Network and Internet

    Set your WiFi connection as Metered

    3.

    Click your Start Button, type services and hit ENTER

    Scroll down the list of services to find Windows Update

    Double click the service

    If it has started, click 'Stop'

    Then you must set its startup type to 'Disabled' - 'Manual' will not do!

    Restart your PC

    That's It!
