    Windows 10 : Setting a time of day to DOWNLOAD UPDATES


    Good day,

    I have noted that this question was asked previously in March 2017 and was eventually closed as MS Consultants got it mixed up between"Update DOWNLOAD Time" and"RESTART TIME for Updates". It is no problem setting the time for the latter but Windows is DOWNLOADINGthe updates anytime without me even knowing it,


    I am using a data bundle that gives equal quantities of daylight and midnight data . Midnight data can be used from 23:00 till 7:00 hrs and data is lost if not used during these hours. Being an older individual I am not always comfortable to be up and about during these hours and would therefor like my PC to check for and downloadWindows Updates automatically during these "midnight data hours".


    My question is therefor: How can I set the time of day that Windows shall CHECK FOR UPDATES AND DOWNLOAD these updates? It would be nice if Windows will notify me that "Updates are available for download" and "Updates were downloaded" and "Updates will be installed between 00:00 and 6:00.


    Thank you so much and I really hope that I will get the same support as I got on previous occassion from the MS team.

    :)

  2. Windows 10 download speed issues

    Try this method:
    • First of all from Start Menu, open Settings (Type settings in the search bar and it will appear).
    • locate and select “Update and Security“.
    • in this window, Locate “Advanced Options”. Click on it.
    • In Advanced Options; Click on “Choose How Updates are Delivered“.
    • Turn off Updates from more than one place.
    Your system will not work as a seeder for other Windows 10 users. It will give sudden boast to your Slow internet speed.

    Windows 10 : Setting a time of day to DOWNLOAD UPDATES

    Windows 10 forced download

    ^This, then reboot and go to manually update windows. Find KB3035583 in the list of available updates, right-click and "Hide this update" so it doesn't get installed again next go around.
