I should add that Windows 10 Home doesn't come with a group policy editor, unlike Pro.
Well, maybe that's why we have different update settings. You can't compare apples with oranges.
Are you using Windows 10 Home?
By the Winaero button do you mean "Set Windows Update to notify only" in method 1? If so, then your suggestion doesn't work.
Update: I downloaded and installed Winaero Tweaker and it doesn't work. At least, I don't get the text "You'll be asked to download available updates" under Update Settings. I also tried with...
That probably explains the difference. It looks like Winaero does a better job managing updates than the gpedit option. Thanks for the tip; it's appreciated!
I think me using gpedit and you using Winaero's tweak tool probably accounts for the differences in our update status pages. The hkey may have been deleted because it was conflicting with the gpedit...

Hi, thanks for the response. I'm also using build 1607 but don't know what you mean by AU versus CU. My connection is not metered since I'm not using wireless. My understanding is that you don't need...
I used the Group Policy to select option "2. Notify for download and notify for Install". However, every now and then when shutting down I get a request to perform Windows 10 updates. Why is this? I...
