    In registry AUoptions you can set it to 1, this will set the option to "never check for updates"

    Where exactly? And what I want is that Windows Updates should check for updates manually and let me know what updates are available so that I can tick the ones which I want to download & install - the way it is in every Windows prior to 10.

    Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them

    HKEY LOCAL MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update
    "AUOptions"=dword:00000002

    Will this enable the selection thing - what we have in Windows 8.1 presently? And why is this option hidden in 10, any idea?

    “2 -> Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them”
    “3 -> Download updates but let me choose whether to install them”
    “4 -> Install updates automatically (recommended)”

    Windows update is not working for me, Error 0x80070057 is displayed all the time. Tried Component store repair still no luck and sfc /scannow fails after 2% :(



    The new lock screen is pretty. ;)

    With the new updates that released today, I feel like TP 9926 is smoother than before. Have you observed any speed improvements as I did ?

    I had the same issue and no matter what I did would fix it. I had to reinstall to sort it.

    It slows down the system and enlarges the font of the long-on screen. I think it is not functioning as it should.

    That's true. But on the other hand, it shows that MS keep an 'eye' on those bad developments and that's a good sign!!

    If I were you I would apply the registry tweak to add the classic Windows Update and set it to manually search and download updates. I am suggesting a more practical way though.
