Just 2 steps to permanently turn off Win10 automatic updates

Just 2 steps to permanently turn off Win10 automatic updates
It's not that Windows 10 is bad, but Microsoft is really dishonest now, and it doesn't even give you a heads up when it comes to upgrades and updates. If you don't pay attention, your computer will automatically restart and start reciting poetry. Not only will it waste your time, but if you don't prepare in advance, the update will fail and your day will be completely wasted. The problem is that there is no option to turn off automatic updates in either the control panel or the settings, but this doesn't bother registry enthusiasts. Today we're going to completely turn off Windows Update. Go to "Control Panel-Administrative Tools-Services" (or right-click "This PC" and click "Manage"), find the Windows Update item, and change "Startup Type" to "Disabled". What? You said that even if it's "disabled", Windows will still update, right? In fact, everyone only sees the previous options and ignores the big pit Microsoft has dug, so after using many other methods to modify it, Windows Update will still be updated. Don't rush to close the window just now, take a closer look at the tab above, there is also a "Recovery" item, and that's where the problem lies. The system defaults to "Restart the service" after the first failure. We just need to change it to "No Operation", then Windows Update can be completely stopped. This is the moment when the mission is truly accomplished!
