Tip for Stopping Microsoft Updates
Controlling Microsoft Updates
If your are doing something critical or just too busy to deal with the latest Windows 10 update right now you have options. Hit Pause to delay Windows Update for up to five weeks. This option even cancels pending updates, leaving you free to keep working without fear of interruption.
For example, if you're about to hit the road on a business trip, the last thing you want is to deal with an unexpected update when you're rushing to finish packing or finalize an important presentation.
To avoid that unpleasant possibility, go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update > Advanced Options and click the Pause Updates button. (Beginning with Windows 10 version 1903, the Pause Updates button moves to the main Windows Update page, as shown here.)
That action immediately stops all updates, with the exception of Windows Defender definitions (which are typically small and don't require a restart).
