    Stop updates?


    As the title states, is there any way to stop automatic updates completely? Win 10 updates itself right in the middle of me working/gaming/drawing/etc... I’ve lost countless hours of work and art from win 10 updating and restarting without warning and corrupting files I’m working on. Is there any way to stop this? I’ve tried several different things, such as registry edits, services.msc changes, etc... yet it still continues to happen. It refuses to do updates during the hours I had set and just randomly decides to restart whenever it feels like it.

    Alternatively does anyone know of an user friendly OS that isn’t windows I could replace it with?

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Stop updates? :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.

    Stop updates?

    Vista Automatic Updating Error

    Resolution Suggestion:

    # To resolve this problem, make sure that BITS and the Automatic Updates service are started..

    A simple solution but one that works in most circumstances!

    1. Click Start, click Run, type services.msc, and then click OK.

    2. In the list of services, right-click Automatic Updates, and then click Properties.

    3. In the Startup type list, click Automatic, and then click Apply.

    4. If Service status is set to Stopped, click Start, and then click OK.

    5. Right-click Background Intelligent Transfer Service, and then click Properties.

    6. In the Startup type list, click Manual, and then click Apply.

    7. If Service status is set to Stopped, click Start, and then click OK.
