  1. Update schedule settings locked after turning off


    Please help me!!! I have an update pending for Windows 10. So I opened the "schedule a time" screen and then picked a date and time. But then I tried what does the on/off switch do and when I switched it to off, it got greyed out and now I cannot re-pick the date! How do I unlock this? I set the time and date to next Thursday but when I turned it off, it picked today and I just cannot pick it again. Great.
    (Please note that I do have an update scheduled, this is not like I do not have one so it's locked.)

  2. Update Schedule

    I am trying to adjust the settings for the automatic updates so it will not interfere with the work hours that I am using the computer. The virtual agent in the microsoft help center gave me instructions on how to adjust these :

    • Select Start 
      > Settings 
      > Update & security 
      > Windows Update
      .Under Update settings, select
      Restart options.
    • Turn on the toggle under Schedule a time. Then use the time and date selectors to set an update time that’s convenient for you

    The issue I am having is that when I go into the restart options tab the toggle for
    Schedule a time is not able to be turned on. Could someone please help me figure out what settings I may need to change first in order to turn on the schedule a time toggle.

    • Type Settings.
    • Click Update and Security.
    • Click Advanced options.
