How to Permanently Disable Window 10 Updates How to Permanently Disable Window 10 Updates

I'm out of ideas. Can anyone tell me how to disable Winows 10 Updates so it NEVER updates?

I'm using Win10ProX64. I've tried:

1. Group Policy Editor
2. Registry editor
3. Disabling Windows Update in "Services.msc"

These things appear to work temporarily but Windows finds a way to sneak in and update eventually. This is costing me money because I am running mining machines and Windows updates causes the mining software to stop working. I am in a different country so I'm connecting via Teamviewer but the connection is very slow so I keep losing the connection. I'm so pissed off at Microsoft right now. I can reinstall Windows when i get home in 2 weeks but how do I solve this and prevent Win 10 from updating permanently? I would appreciate any input anyone has. Thanks.

Pretty sure there's a way to do it, I don't know personally as I didn't downgrade from win7, but don't come crying to us when you ignore security updates and some third world script kiddies steal your precious, precious crypto

Setting your network connection to ‘Metered’, can also stop Windows 10 from automatically downloading the Updates.

Not really recommended for various security reasons as above poster also said.

There's nothing sensitive on the computers because they are mining computers so I don't care about security. They can't steal my crypto because there is none stored there and there are no private keys on there.

Thanks for this. I tried most of the methods already but there is a software tool there I haven't tried yet, I'll try this and if it works I'll report back later:

""TIPS:

Win Update Stop is a free tool that allows you to disable Windows Updates on Windows 10/8/7 with a click of the button.""

Thank you!
