Good News on the Windows 10 front!

I rang Microsoft today and explained the problem with Windows updating and restarting while I am rendering. They understood my situation and said if they could remote access my computer they could turn off the updates and I can load them when I want to! I allowed them to do this and they also did it on my second computer. Also Outlook 365 updates which I also have also needs to be turned off. So we will see how it goes! They save an admin key in the all Programs and when you want to install updates you right click on this item and you can continue to reinstall the updates. I have also Posted this thread in DAZ Studio Forum.Cheers

Who own the hardware ? You or Mircosoft ?

If I am not mistaken, you can set when you accept updates. On shut down ... or set it up for your own convenience. MS needn't have "controlled" your machine, but since it all worked out for you, I am pleased and we do appreciate you sharing this with us. Some folks do have conflicting feelings about MS and Windows. We needn't air those issues here even if we understand them. Thank you.

Thanks for the heads up... Did some research and found out you can go to settings, Window Update, etc. and set your options in Advanced Options.

You'll be asked to schedule a restart to finish installing updates. Updates won't download over a metered connection (where charges may apply).

When I replaced my failed hd with an sdd and bought windows 8 I disabled the updates as well. I plan to avoid win10 on that system as long as I can. :)
