    Which 3rd party tools allow Security Updates but block Feature Upgrds?


    As well known by default Win10 allows only to defer Feature Updates but not to block them (forever).
    However there are some 3rd party tools which allow to block them anyway e.g.
    - StopWinUpdates - Wu10Man - StopUpdates10 - Sordum Update Blocker - Windows Update MiniTools - .....
    However it seems to me that they block successfully Feature Updates but also Security Updates.
    Is there a tool which allow Security Update but block Feature Upgrades?
    Is there a comparison (table) of these tools?
    Thank you Peter

    :)

    3rd party antivirus/firewall and win10

    Antivirus; the attempt by Microsoft to remove (uninstall) or limit 3rd party antivirus and firewalls is truly overreach.

    This action is purely designed to make the win10 systems allow Microsoft products and setting not be blocked by other software.

    Automatically turning on the built in defender and windows firewall before a 3rd party product has finished updating, being completely uninstalled or temporally paused should not invoke win10 to restart its built in products, but it does infract do this.

    This is true for any pc that has any win10 files including the get win10 gwx program in win7 and 8.1.

    This corrupts the installation of 3rd party product's so as to not allow the program to use its full capacity, there by making the system venerable.

    The only option is to have to uninstall the 3rd party software and reinstall, this can be a real pain to reconfigure on every win10 updates build.

    I can only think that this is also why Microsoft is making it difficult to use any other system protection but its own.

    A big step in the wrong direction.

    3rd Party cookies Blocker

    Using Windows10, how do I turn off the 3rd party cookies blocker please? I am trying to access a bona fide web site which will not allow me access because my 3rd Party Cookie is blocking me.

    Which 3rd party tools allow Security Updates but block Feature Upgrds?

    Windows Defender or 3rd party?

    @lolnothankyou
    Are you seriously suggesting the OP drop all real-time protection, and use a 3rd party tool that is only as current as the last download, if you can download it? And is "somewhat efficient"? And has to be Firewall blocked to avoid calling out with whatever? Really???
