    Hi there! I had the bad surprise 2 days ago to see MS ignores the setting I put for a w10 machine, metered connection.  I did manually the updates when it was needed, but for unknown reason, 1809 , 2 days ago,  was uploaded, installed and ready to re-start to configure the version update…  Luckily, it seems OK, but I was not ready yet. A little cleaning of the SSD was on the to-do list before the upgrade!

    Is it a normal behavior?  I know you can’t have total control when it comes to MS updates on a family edition, but still. Ironically, I ask for the 1809 update on my old ROG asus, and it’s not showing…

    Is there something new in 1809 to pause updates on a family edition?

    Have a great day all!

      I presume you mean the Home Edition of Windows 10?
      If so, metered is the only way in that version of the OS. However, there are third party apps to assist blocking WU from connecting when you do not want it to eg:
      WUBlocker
      I haven’t used this but many report it to be useful in this situation..

      Windows - commercial by definition and now function...
