Windows 11 and 10 offers less UI control over the updating behavior of the operating system than previous versions of Windows , There is no option to turn off Windows Updates using the Control Panel or Settings app in Windows 11 & 10, it checks for updates automatically and install any updates they find, whether you like it or not. This new feature is actually pretty convenient for most users. If you want control over the update process you can disable the Windows Update service . This requires that you open the Services manager, locate the service and change its startup parameter and status. You would then have to enable the service again whenever you want the operating system to check for updates (It does not look so easy).
Windows Update Blocker is a freeware that helps you to completely disable or enable Automatic Updates on your Windows system , with just a click of the button . This utility is portable, which means that you are no longer required to go through the installation process and no leftovers will remain on the HDD after its removal. if you place the program file to an external data device, you make it possible to take Windows Update Blocker everywhere with you and use it on any computer you come in contact with, who has things configured just right, and doesn’t want to take the chance that an update might mess up their system. This utility is for that person.
How it works
After downloading, extract Windows Update Blocker to your desired location, then run it

Hello, have you considered adding the option to pause updates until the year 2099 to be able to use the Microsoft Store? To install and update apps from the store without having to activate and deactivate the lock, thank you
The Microsoft Store uses Windows Update and its components for things like downloads. If you cannot download files from the Microsoft Store when Windows Update is turned off , You can turn Windows Update on , use the Microsoft Store, and then turn Windows Update off again.
Hi, will v1.8 block Microsoft Store? I remember using an older version and when the update services were disabled, MSStore won’t work. Any way to keep MSStore working without having to enable services?
Hi, I want to enable updates but not upgrade updates, I want to receive updates like other features, quality and drivers. We can do this from gpedit.msc, but I could not find such an option in this program, there is only a complete block feature. It would be more useful to add the feature I mentioned. It is up to you if you want to add it or not.
UsoSvc service may be required by some Windows components, settings page, etc. Therefore, when Windows Update is turned off with Wub, the UsoSvc service is only set manually. In other words, UsoSvc is not disabled when shutting down with Wub default settings.Components that use the UsoSvc service may automatically enable related tasks.We have noted this problem.
Got rebooted… Applied WUB
after a few hours, these two items in UpdateOrchestrator go back to a "Ready" Status
Schedule Scan Static Task
and
Schedule Scan
any way to overcome this? (11 Pro 22H2)
