Windows 10 haven't updated to version 1511 --- How to find product key

I haven't run the ISO disk as of yet, I want the current product key in hand, on a post it note, prior to doing that, not interested in MS bullS**T about it not being needed. 2 hours online with tech support and they can't cope with the question of how
can the current product key be accessed in windows 10.

I've never owned a Apple product, but I can never see buying or having another MS product in my household after this.

NOT THE ONLY ONE

 

How to Install Windows 10 on Devices with Limited Space

Even though I have an external device with more than 40 Gb capacity and the assistant recognizes it, it still keeps asking me to free 5 more Gb from the (unit C.

I have 3'62 Gb free memory in (Unit C. It asks me to free 5'63 Gb more. That'll make a total of 9'25 GB. The assistant needs 9'80 GB free memory to update windows 10 without any external device. Does this mean that my external device will only be used
for 0'55 GB? Please I don't understant anything. I just want my laptop to work. I'd stay with my actual version but it keeps showing me ads, interrupting my work and deleting random stuff because of uninterruptible random updates. It has already freed 3 GB
and I dont even know where from.

Thank you.

 

How do you stop Windows updates?

That's from the extensive tutorial section- worth getting to know. Very practical and useful.

You may find this easier:



Free to download.

Setting your connection (ethernet or Wifi) as metered is possibly the least intrusive.
Again, Winaero's tweaker can help you with ethernet connections.

Note: If you disable Windows updates, then Windows Defender updates will be disabled.
You can set up a scheduled task yourself to perform Defender updates. A little research will show you how.

 

Or you can use the Windows Update Minitool to perform selective updates at your discretion (If scheduling is absolutely necessary, the PSWindowsUpdate PowerShell module from the PowerShell Gallery may be just the thing).
