AskWoody LoungerWe have several updates waiting since we disabled the W10-Pro updater.
What app can we trust to provide control of the updater like was possible with W7 ?Below is a list of what we found some time ago that were recommended at various forums etc:
1 – Windows Update Manager (WuMgr), by David Xanatos
2 – Windows Update Blocker (WUB), by Sordum
3 – StopUpdates10, by Greatis Software
4 – Windows Update MiniTool (WUMT), by ?
5 – WinUpdateStop v1.4, by NoVirusThanks
6 – O&OShutUp10, by O&O Software GmbH
7 – Sledgehammer 2.7.2, hy pf100
8 – Wushowhide, by Microsoft
9 – Windows 10 Update Assistant, by MicrosoftWhich program (or something else better) works the most like what was possible with W7 options (hide or install, etc) to control updating, and which is the most reliable and trustworthy ?
And if we start to use a program, how do we deal with the 11 updates that W10 Pro keeps telling us are ready to install ?
Not sure if this is the correct forum for the question, and if not please direct us to the correct one.
Thank you.Thanks again for your help, akm (Dell Inspiron 15 (forced from W7 to W10), Ofc2003. FireFox, Privatefirewall 7, Avast, SuperAntiSpyware, MBAM)!
