The metered connection kludge isn’t documented anywhere.Disable the Windows Update service, wuauserv.Set your internet connection to metered. With Win10 Home, you only have three ways to fend off forced updates: With Win10 Pro, you stand a fighting chance of keeping Microsoft’s mitts off your machine until you’re good and ready to apply updates or upgrades. Microsoft’s official comparison list doesn’t mention the fact that Pro includes update- and upgrade-blocking settings (which are occasionally “accidentally” ignored ). Microsoft adds a few features to Win10 Pro, compared to Win10 Home – Join network domains, group policies, remote desktop, BitLocker – but all of those fade in comparison to the one feature that every Win10 user needs: The ability to block updates. But the “nothing to see here, carry on” response in blogland drives me up a wall. The fact that Surface Pro now ships with Windows Home hasn’t escaped the notice of many.
