Stopping auto updates on metered connection windows 10 home
Greetings all.
I have a small metered connection. It's only 1 GB per month. And I can't delay the auto updates until I'm at a public connection.
My computer sneaks, and downloads the auto updates without me knowing it . And if I do know it, I can't stop them so I can wait until I get to a public connection without disconnecting from the internet.
It's mostly Windows Defender updates. Sometimes there are two or three a day.
The auto updates alone use up more than my monthly data allotment.
I've tried
Settings/network and internet/advanced options
and all I get from that is a page listing the properties like Manufacturer, and Description.
What I want to do is postpone or stop the auto updates until I'm at a public connection so I don't have to use my private, metered connection to download the updates.
HELP!
