    Windows 10 Delivery Optimization


    Hi, I am not sure of how Windows Update Delivery Optimization works. Situation: two Windows 10 PCs router cable connected as a network, checked for Windows updates whenever either of them get switched on, both have Windows Update Delivery Optimization switched on, use one PC or the other but not both at the same time, and no 'prompt' key to initiate data transfer. Do both PCs need to be switched on at the same time for update exchanges to happen and do such update exchanges then happen automatically? TIA!

    :)

  2. Windows 10 - Delivery Optimization hogging bandwidth

    Hi Abhishek,

    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if it helps.


    • Click the Start menu button (or type “settings” in the search box), choose Settings and click Update & security (toward the bottom of the Settings window).

    • From within the Windows Update tab, click Advanced options.

    • Under Choose how updates are installed, change Automatic (recommended) to Notify to schedule restart:

    • Next, click Choose how updates are delivered

    • Under Updates from more than one place, switch the toggle to Off:

    • Click the upper-right X to close the window; your changes will be saved.


    Let me also inform you that this is an integral feature of Windows 10 as updates are installed automatically. To know more about Delivery Optimization,:

    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



    Additional info:



    If you have further queries, I would suggest you to post your query in the
    TechNet Forums, where we have support professionals
    well equipped with the knowledge on Delivery Optimization.

    We suggest that to manage your connection consume for Windows Update and Delivery Optimization is to configure Delivery Optimization through Group Policy and Windows Update by deferring the Windows Update.

    For more information on how to use Group Policy to configure Windows Update Delivery Optimization in Windows 10, check this

    Deferring Windows upgrades prevent your device from getting the latest Windows features downloaded or installed for several months. It doesn't affect any security updates. To do this, follow these steps:

    • Type Settings in Cortana Search and press
      Enter
      .
    • Click Update & Security and click Advance Options under
      Update settings.
    • Check the tick box for Defer feature updates.
