Automatic Update cannot be Disabled in Windows 10.


             Microsoft is yet to release the new version of Windows under the name #Windows 10 by July 29 and there has been many features that are being added to the version. Recently it has been said that the automatic updates can not be disabled in windows 10.

              Microsoft has a feature known as #Automatic Update that is used for Fixing the patch and also for providing stability to the system. 

               Actually if a security Researcher or any attacker finds a new way to exploit the system, the company will fix the issue and provide a patch for that and thus the Automatic update seems to be one of the important feature.

                Many of the users do not want to install the updates as it consumes more Bandwidth and also may slow down the system performance if the Bandwidth is small. For this Windows 8 has four options for the user.

Download and Install automatically
Download but choose when to Install
Check for Download but choose when to install
Never check for updates

                 These are the options but due the enormous increase in Cyber Threats and getting many opinions from Security Experts Microsoft decided to remove the last option from the list above.

                  So hereafter you like or not you can not disable the Windows automatic Update in Windows 10. The options that will be available are

Check, Download, Install and Reboot Automatically
Check, Download, Install Automatically and then choose to reboot.

                 These will be the options that will be available in Windows 10.

P.S : The post is to create awareness and not to create any negative impact.
