Windows 10: Win11 Delivery optimization not downloading from my other PCs on the network

Hi!I'm in the process of preparing some 10 identical NBs notebooks with Win11 Home for my company.I brought them home to set them up from scratch. I already fully updated two and activated DO Delivery Optimization for Windows Updates on them. The second downloaded everything from MS, didn't get a single byte from the first Notebook or anything else on my network... So I checked and my WiFi was set as public network... I changed that to Private on both since I'm home.On the third I configured DO the same way expecting it to work this time. Also set the WiFi on the third NB as Private: 100%

delivery optimization is consuming too much data

Today i became tired of svchost.exe which was using too much data since last update. found in service that it was actually delivery optimization (DoSvc), so i did the following:

• disabled delivery optimization in windows setting.( didn't work)
• disabled " allow downloads from other pc" (didn't work)
• disabled delivery optimization service in service.msc ( worked but after the next boot up it came back again)
• disabled automatic update in window and windows store. ( didn't work)
• used windows firewall for delivery optimization to stop accessing the network ( it worked but it restricted my whole computer to use network, including browsers, i dont know why is that?)
• used every other tutorial available on internet, but this DoSvc is not in mood of saving my data bill

and yes, I have updated my windows to most latest version ( perhaps it is what causing the problem) so don't suggest me to update.

please help!

How does Windows Delivery Optimization detect the bandwidth available?

Hi Jason,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



In the heart of the Windows kernel there is a networking stack. It contains a suite of algorithms that would determine the available bandwidth.



You can use the PowerShell cmdlets to monitor the delivery optimization.
Get-DeliveryOptimizationStatusreturns a real-time snapshot of all current Delivery Optimization jobs. For more information, I would suggest you
to refer to the article: Set up Delivery Optimization for Windows 10 updates
