  • Came back home to get on my Laptop, this pops up. How do I fix this??

    Do what I told you. Next when your laptop is on and rocking Go and download WuMgr it's a lightweight Windows Update and Driver Update Manager that is way more accurate than Windows Update, and let you disable Automatic Update. It is more than REQUIRED to disable it because it downloads without your permissions some bs drivers sometimes or unhelpful Windows updates.

    this is what i use, makes it super simple and even when i did all the shenanigans with event viewer and group policy it still always seemed to reset at times on it's own... this works though https://github.com/DavidXanatos/wumgr

    If you want even more control over Windows Updates I suggest you to use Update Manager for Windows by David Xanatos (https://github.com/DavidXanatos/wumgr).

    The right place to get that wumgr software would be the repo of DavidXanatosa? Just checking because the last version (v1.1) is 4yo. https://github.com/DavidXanatos/wumgr

    https://github.com/DavidXanatos/wumgr is what i use, you can actually disable/hide stuff the way you used to be able to without having to mess around with group policies that still seem to never work correctly or for some reason reset.

    Interesting. I have Windows updates turned off, doing them periodically myself with wumgr, and my version of this file was already 1.1.20200.4. I last pulled updates about four months ago, so anything released March shouldn't have been on my system yet... D:
