Show or hide updates - Prevent Windows 10 from automatically updating

Show or hide updates is a temporary tool that prevents Windows 10 from automatically updating by Microsoft.

Download the latest Windows 10

One of Microsoft's most controversial decisions in Windows 10 is changing the way the update works. Instead of allowing users to choose, grant the right to update as in older versions of Windows, in Windows 10, users have no way to prevent new security and feature updates. Even the Pro version only allows limited control of updates.

Microsoft's goal in making this change is to keep devices up to date with the latest features and fixes.Updates and drivers are automatically installed without having to choose which updates are needed or not. However, this has faced a lot of objections from users because automatic updates can cause problems with their devices , create system problems or cause Windows to work incorrectly. And in fact, there have been many such cases.
