This is the default settings that come with Windows. No modifications are made and will remove any custom windows update settings.Note: If you still encounter update errors, reset all updates in the config tab. That will restore ALL Microsoft Update Services from their servers and reinstall them to default settings.This is my recommended setting I use on all computers. It will delay feature updates by 2 years and will install security updates 4 days after release.Feature Updates: Adds features and often bugs to systems when they are released. You want to delay these as long as possible.Security Updates: Typically these are pressing security flaws that need to be patched quickly. You only want to delay these a couple of days just to see if they are safe and don't break other systems. You don't want to go without these for ANY extended periods of time.This completely disables ALL Windows Updates and is NOT RECOMMENDED. However, it can be suitable if you use your system for a select purpose and do not actively browse the internet. Note: Your system will be easier to hack and infect without security updates.
