Understanding Windows Update Mechanisms
Before diving into the methods, it's crucial to grasp how Windows updates work.
Automatic Updates: By default, Windows automatically downloads and installs updates in the background, usually during idle periods. This ensures your system is always protected.
Scheduled Updates: Windows also schedules updates during specific times, like early morning or late evening, to minimize disruption. You can view and adjust these schedules.
Update Notifications: You'll receive notifications on your screen whenever updates are available. These notifications typically include information about the update's purpose and potential impact on your system.
In case of urgent issues, you can temporarily disable the Windows Update service to prevent updates from downloading and installing.
- Open Services: Press "Windows key + R" to open the "Run" dialog box. Type "services.msc" and press Enter.
- Locate Windows Update Service: Scroll down the list of services and find "Windows Update."
- Stop Service: Right-click on "Windows Update" and select "Stop."
- Disable Automatic Startup: Right-click on "Windows Update" again, select "Properties," and then go to the "Startup type" drop-down menu. Choose "Disabled."
- Restart Computer: Restart your computer to apply the changes.
