Windows 10: Want to shut down WU !!!!

Hello, folks!! Would appreciate some assistance...Have a 32 bit tablet/laptop, running W10 Home, with 32GB storage on the hard drive. All I do with it is some email, and some Googling for miscellaneous stuff. Nothing heavy. Was able to stop Windows Update from installing for a while, but something happened, and can no longer do so. Every time it updates get messages that there is not enough room on the HD, etc. Had to reset the machine a couple of times already, but the darn thing just keeps wanting to update. Looked at all sorts of suggestions, and none worked. Went to Services, and Disabled WU. Found the following Registry edit, and, to my surprise, it only worked for a few days![HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU] "NoAUShutdownOption"=dword:00000001 "NoAUAsDefaultShutdownOption"=dword:00000001 "NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers"=dword:00000001 [HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU] "NoAUShutdownOption"=dword:00000001 "NoAUAsDefaultShutdownOption"=dword:00000001 "NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers"=dword:00000001 Have no clue as to what to do next to stop WU from updating the machine. Any suggestions?? Thanks for your help!

Can't fix WU Error

I don't have Macrium and I prefer not to run third party tools. So yes I have done the usual suggestions.

SFC
DISM
Reset WU

 

Windows 10 fails to update


When you finish testing the Avast suggestion, make sure that you restart your machine.

Then if the issue persists, please return to the trouble shooting list in post# 89

I think there are three steps that remain; the WU troubleshooter, reset WU components, and manual WU reset.

The issue might occur if the computer is not shut down properly. so, I suggest you to perform a power drain by follow the steps below and check if it helps.

• Shut down the Computer.
• Remove all power source (including battery if it is a laptop).
• Press and hold the power button for 15-20 seconds.
• Connect the power source and start the computer.
