    I managed to get the Download button on Win10Pro using some of the registry changes I monitored from doing the steps in the OP on LTSB, out of curiosity I tried the reg tweaks on Home but did not get the Download button, also you HAVE TO LET Windows Update do its own scan do not do a manual scan of upddates for it to work. Also I don't know if these reg tweaks only need applied once or not as I use HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run to launch a bat file that re-imports some of my reg tweaks that MS resets during a reboot.

    I highlighted in bold what I believe is the real culprit for the Download button.

    From what I read of the software you can disable wuauserv until you are ready to do updates, then you will need to temporarily re-enable wuauserv while using that tool to do your updates, then disable wuauserv again. The only benefit to that over the gpedit/reg tweak is no nagging that you have updates that need to be installed.

    Then have you tried either the gpedit from OP or the reg key I posted but don't do a manual scan but let WU do the scan itself then use MS Win10 WU hide tool to hide the ones you don;t want before hitting the Download button?

    The 1 thing I would like to add to N is the store. That's it.

    Anyone know how to install that?

    Surely someone will come out with a brilliant way, but I can say that if you upgrade from a Pro, the store and most of the Apps will be retained for the old Pro users.

    Ohh? By blocked key, does that mean MS blocked the LTSB volume key, deactivating all copies?
