    @Brink, As a matter of interest, I upgraded a Windows 10 Home x64 install sequentially from 1607 to 1909 (1607 > 1703 > 1709 > 1803 > 1809 > 1903 > 1909, using an in-place upgrade from a mounted ISO each time).

    Following the Turn Off Automatic Installation of Suggested Apps in Windows 10 tutorial, I toggled the DWORD value for the SilentInstalledAppsEnabled entry from 1 to 0 after each upgrade (as it gets reset each time).

    At the end of the last in-place upgrade I exported the entire HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ContentDeliveryManager key in order to cut it down to create a REG file I could use to toggle the state.

    This is what I found amongst all the other entries:

    Code:
    "SubscribedContentEnabled"=dword:00000000
"SubscribedContent-314559Enabled"=dword:00000000
"SubscribedContent-338387Enabled"=dword:00000000
"SubscribedContent-338388Enabled"=dword:00000000
"SubscribedContent-338389Enabled"=dword:00000000
"SubscribedContent-338393Enabled"=dword:00000000
"SubscribedContent-353696Enabled"=dword:00000000

    It looks like each in-place upgrade wrote a new SubscribedContentEnabled entry whenever the SilentInstalledAppsEnabled entry was toggled... so I'll have to watch out for the behaviour in v2004.

    Hello @RickC,

    Yeah, each SubscribedContent value is for a different setting. Here are a few below:
