  1. Windows 10 Pro v2004 - Missing Setting for Delaying Feature Updates


    Now that I've updated to v2004, I can no longer delay Feature Updates for my preferred 270-days via Settings/Update & Security/Windows Update/Advanced Options. However, I did find an article at How to Delay Windows 10 Updates PCMag https://www.pcmag.com/how-to/how-to-delay-windows-10-updates . In this article it provided a work-around procedure that requires editing of Local Group Policy.


    I strongly recommend that Microsoft Microsoft reestablish this missing Advanced Options feature. While I have been using and fighting Windows OS's since 1998, having to edit Group Policy or Registry for this feature is out of my comfort zone, although I have done so follow PCMag's guidance.
