Windows gives you the option to turn upgrades off or to get notifications.  There is an option to turn off additional software / driver updates with a general Win 10 update also.  Drivers will always be the big thing.  I need to be current but am watchful.

Hi, can you post some information on how to do this in Windows10, as I have been unable to figure this out. Turned off in Services simply gets turned on again after the next boot up.

Sure Howard - if you have a search / Cortana on you taskbar type updates.  On the Windows Update screen click the Advanced options.  These are the options you have for Windows Update.

Cheers

I can't remember how, but I did turn off automatic display driver updates. I'm still at 388.13, which work well for me.

However, I have the HOME version and I cannot 'refuse' the other Windows 10 updates as you can with the PRO version.

You can disable device driver updates, but you can't disable updates in general under Windows 10.
You can also postpone updates.  But not disable them.

Has that now changed?

I have Win10 Pro.  If I can refuse updates I want to know how that is done :)  (!)  I only know of refusing device drive updates (mine is set to do that, so I don't get a magical nVidia x-mas present next time I boot my sim) -- or postponing /delaying updates. 

Google Group Policy editor.

With Win Pro you can delay ALL updates for up to 365 days.

When a big update comes out, wait a few months until all is good with P3D etc., and then re enable updates and let it update. 

Then "re enable" the block on updates, for another 365 days, and so on.

Take back control !
