    Windows Update constantly using all internet bandwidth


    For weeks now my internet connection has been struggling causing significant internet related problems all around the home.

  2. Window 10 eating my Wifi bandwidth

    Whenever I start my laptop and check 'data usage' after couple of minutes, I found 'system' is using my internet bandwidth in size of hundreds MBs.

    I urgently need to get rid of this.

    I tried many tricks:

    • Set wifi on metered connection
    • Disable Windows Update service
    • Disable scheduled task regarding Windows 10 update assistance and some others
    • Set all background app to OFF.
    Still windows 10 constantly eating my bandwidth.

    How to stop this unacceptable behaviour?

  3. Microsoft Minesweeper consuming excess internet bandwidth

    Hi,

    To resolve your concern, we suggest that you reset your apps to restart or reset the network bandwidth that they consume per app.

    Here's how:

    • Press Windows + R on the keyboard.
    • Type msconfig, and then click OK.
    • On the General tab, click the Normal Startup, and then click OK.
    • When you are prompted to restart the computer, click Restart.

    If the issue persist, we suggest that you contact your Internet Service Provider for additional bandwidth on your network.

    If you have comments and suggestions, you can have them posted on our
