    On Payg And windows 10 keeps downloading updates.


    This is killing me It has cost me £30 uk today alone.
    I have a new computer I bought yesterday and I have changes the settings to notify to schedule restart and it is currently downloading the new version of windows..... 1511.10586 and I can not stop it short of taking my wireless PAYG out.....


    All i want to do is stop this machine from downloading updates and it will not do it.
