Windows Updates

Set Windows to automatically download updates, but notify you rather than installing them:

  1. Open the Windows Start Menu .

  2. Type sconfig and press Enter.

    This will open the Server Configuration tool in a command prompt.

  3. Enter 5 to access Windows Update Settings.

  4. Enter 2 to select Download only.

    This option may be D rather than 2 on some operating systems.

  5. Close the command prompt window when done.

Next Steps

Continue to the steps in Registry Settings.
