    Hey Y’all,

    I was doing some research on Windows Update, a topic near and dear to all our hearts, not!

    It got me to thinking just how many registry entries are there that relate to Windows Update Settings. So starting out with what I already knew (at the top of the attached file) I searched for “WindowsUpdate” in the registry (Win 10 Pro 1803) and this is what I came up with.

    Is it any wonder that controlling updates is such a problem?

    BTW: The first URL in the file leads to a MS document that would seem to indicate (It does apply to 1809 & 1803 it says) you can disable Windows Update with a single, yes ONE, registry entry. Of course as always YMMV!

    Thoughts?

    😎

    May the Forces of good computing be with you!
