    Looks like the disable automatic updates on home could be as easy as changing a 0 to a 1.
    I'll make up a script for the general population kiddies to enable/disable.

    Edit: "kiddies" was apparently deemed hate-speech, so I've edited this post.

    The only way is by using an alternate theme, would you like a Windows 8 theme? thought the title bar really lacks inactive color and the animations are just fade in and fade out for opening/closing a window.

    And do the same for the scheduled task so it starts with the machine

    Add Copy to Folder/Move to Folder to context menu:

    Code:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Copyto]
    @="{C2FBB630-2971-11d1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}"
    
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Moveto]
    @="{C2FBB631-2971-11d1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}"
    
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Folder\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Copyto]
    @="{C2FBB630-2971-11d1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}"
    
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Folder\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Moveto]

    Test please:

    Note
    If you do not have a US English Windows 10 installed, then you will need to change the en-US folder name in the command below for the folder name with your language instead for this to work.

    To open ModernUI "apps" as the actual Administrator account;
    Code:
    Gpedit.msc -> Windows Settings -> Security Settings -> Local Policies -> Security Options. Enable "User Access Control: Admin Approval Mode For built in Administrator….”
    Code:
     Regedit: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\UIPI  Double click "default" in the right hand pane. Enter "0x00000001 (1)" (without quotation marks)
    Restart and you will be able to run Edge, and all other ModernUI programs.
