Windows 10: How can I defer / delay an update on my Daktronics computer?

Topic

  • How can I defer / delay a Windows 10 update on my Daktronics computer?

Environment

  • Product:
  • Component: Windows 10 Operating System 
  • Control System: 

Windows 10 Pro or Windows 10 Enterprise, allows users to pause updates from being downloaded and installed. 

Steps

  1. Select the Start button, then select Settings  > Update & security  > Windows Update . Under Update settings, select Advanced options.
  2. Turn on Pause updates. Note that, after a certain amount of time or after canceling a pause, you'll need to install the latest updates before you can pause updates again.
  • Once the deferral time has expired, the update will happen outside of set active hours. (If the computer is left on.)
  • If a reboot is needed, it will restart Tuesday morning at 3:00 am local time.
  • If the computer is restarted after the update is downloaded and before it has been applied, the update will apply at that time.
