How do I stop my Windows 10 scheduled update to Windows 11?
If you're not ready to upgrade to Windows 11, there are a few things you can do to stop the scheduled update.
- Pause updates: Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update and click "Pause updates for 7 days". You can repeat this step to pause updates for up to 35 days.
- Set your connection to metered: This will prevent your computer from automatically downloading updates. Go to Settings > Network & Internet > Wi-Fi or Ethernet and turn on "Metered connection".
- Disable the Windows Update service: This will completely stop your computer from checking for and installing updates. However, it's important to note that this can also prevent you from installing important security updates. To disable the Windows Update service, go to Services (type "services" in the search bar) and find "Windows Update". Right-click on it and select "Properties". Then, change the "Startup type" to "Disabled" and click "OK".
