Windows 10 will default to an Automatic Update setting.  While Windows recommends this status, we suggest that you hold off on all Windows updates until we have run tests to ensure that your programs (PBU and PPU) are not affected. 


To Turn off Automatic Updates follow these steps:

  • Open Control Panel >Administrative Tools >Services
  • Double-click on Windows Update from the list
  • In the drop-down, select Manual (instead of automatic or disabled -- disabled doesn't actually disable it)


You can then manually install updates through the Settings App in the Update & Security section.
