RE: OK - That All Makes Sense - Unlike Everything Else About Digital

Unfortunately with Windows 10 there is no way (officially) to turn off the updates. Also there is no message that one is pending. Mostly you just finish a session, turn off the computer to see that instead of closing you see an updating and closing message. When you reboot it installs the update and only then do you get a message to tell you that it has carried out the update. If you look for "details" of what it has done all you see are uniformative messages like " Cumulative update for 64 bit system". What the cumulation consists of is not revealed.

You can reverse the update but what a hassle. Of course some updates are actually wanted (e.g. security) and others are perhaps arguable (functions). The thing is that you get no choice.

Regards
