Stop Microsoft Edge Endless Attempts to update on 20H2
Ever since I upgraded to 20H2 and my firewall keeps nagging me that Microsoft Edge Update is trying to connect online like every half an hour . Now you may wonder why am I not white listing it or blocking it indefinitely , is simply because I keep up this setting on a gaming laptop that I try to keep lag-less , so basically I try to spot notorious apps or services that may attempt to clog internet or cause CPU sudden peeks/hickups even if they were Microsoft's to shut them off the right way and now it seems like MS Edge is being that .
Of course I did allow it internet access few times but it seems there is no update happening and this is its behavior of checking at my end at least .
So bottom line , how to stop it the right way ? I could see it has a service and I can disable it but was wondering though if it has a software toggle at some place I can switch it off by .
