    WHY can't I schedule Windows 10 download time?


    I absolutely and completely understand that I can make changes to how and when Windows 10INSTALLS updates.


    I absolutely and completely understand about setting for a Metered Connection.


    I want to schedule when Windows 10 DOWNLOADS updates because automatic downloads eat up my ISP data limits but Microsoft does not provideANY option to schedule update downloads.


    I know that many other people have been asking how to schedule downloads and Microsoft has never provided answers.


    I WANT TO KNOW WHY I CAN'T SCHEDULE THESE DOWNLOADS. I WANT TO KNOW WHY MICROSOFT WON'T EXPLAIN WHY THEY DON'T PROVIDE THIS OPTION.


    I don't believe I have asked anything complicated here.

    :)

    Is it time for Windows 10 already?

    Thanks, there's a lot of Windows 10 threads around, I got lost, lol...

    Then why download the hacked version at all, I mean no one wants it right? You kind of contradict yourself there.

    Sounds like a misaligned partition to me.
