I have my updates paused until next Update Tuesday. Tired of these Preview updates. Too many MS screwups lately.

Mine seems to be stuck on installing. Been at 0% for a while. I don't even use .NET afaict. I am having WU issues, October cumulative update failed every day for three weeks.
Appears that this update may have been pulled by Microsoft as I restored an image backup today created before this update was installed and WU isn’t offering it anymore.

Never mind, this update did reappear on WU and prompted me for a reboot.
Those previews come out the 4th week of the Month so IT people can test them before they are released on Update Tuesday. Just pause updates and you won't get them.
After getting the updates on Update Tuesday I pause my systems until the next Update Tuesday.
I get a Month to relax and enjoy myself without being bothered by MS.

Are "preview updates" a bad thing to install? I accidentally installed it with the other updates on my Dell, everything works fine though.
