    Is this really any different than just delaying the updates in pro?

    No, the updates won't be installed at all unless you remove your WiFi from metered connection. :biggrin:

    But that would naturally cut you off from the internet... We only wish to remove these damn automatic updates and replace with manual ones... :D

    Did you try after disabling it if the updates are not downloading and gives you the option to press download?

    User config > admin templates > system

    Then Windows Automatic Updates and set to enable

    In the help section it says to enable for prohibiting for searching for updates
    Then use the show/hide tool and your good to go

    No need to even use show / hide tool after setting your WiFi to metered connection. :)

    Yes, with this method you can always choose what update you wish to install.
