  1. Windows 10 Updates Ignoring the Pause


    You disabled and locked this thread after answering it with a bs response. So I am re-posting it here because it is not a bug in a particular windows installation it is something it is either designed to do or if not MS has not fixed whatever problem it is. And the problem is with Windows 10 itself.

    In addition to ignoring the pause, Windows also re-enables both of the services related to Windows Update when disabled. The only way to stop Windows from "looking for updates" when paused is to disable it. The problem with that is Windows will soon re-enable that. I don't need Windows checking for updates, etc when I am in a situation where I have a limited pipe to the network. It should be up to me when Windows does that if I'm smart enough to know what I am doing. This isn't a flipping VCR! Plus I actually knew how to program my VCR in the day. And it pisses me off that Windows tries to take over my machine that I paid for and do whatever it wants whenever it wants. It's my machine, not part of your little empire. And if you don't want some kind of bloody revolution you'll back the F off!

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Windows 10 Updates Ignoring the Pause

    Comodo Software users Windows 10 *Important*

    Windows 10 Updates Ignoring the Pause capture-jpg.jpg


    "Hi All,
    We stronly advise Comodo users not to update to latest MS update KB4022716, which is available for Windows 10 users till they have new fixed version of Comodo internet security products installed.

    Affected Products:
    - Comodo Internet Security / Comodo Antivirus / Comodo Firewall (Affected versions: v6246 and below)
    - Comodo Cloud Antivirus (Affected versions: v533 and below)
    - Internet Security Essentials (Affected versions: v81 and below)
    - Comodo Secure Shopping (Affected versions: v97 and below)

    Possible Problems:
    In case you have updated to MS update KB4022716 prior to updating to latest fixed version of Comodo products, following issues may appear:

    - Crashing browsers
    - May not be able to login to Windows

    Resolution:
    If you are able to login, you can uninstall Comodo and re-install latest fixed Comodo version. Else you need to go to Windows Safe Mode and uninstall Comodo product or re-store system to state before Comodo product was installed.

    In case you want to keep Comodo and pause Windows updates for some time, you may use following steps:
    Step - 1: Click on Start icon on Windows
    Step - 2: Next click on Settings menu item, it will open "Windows Settings" window
    Step - 3: Select "Update & Security" section from there and it will show "Windows Update" section
    Step - 4: Click on "Advanced Options" next, there is "Pause Updates" section allowing you to pause Windows updates for next several days

    You can find same steps with images here .

    Reason:
    There are unexpected changes in last MS update KB4022716, which are incompatible with Comodo products.
