Update tips

Do I need to periodically check those intelligent active hours?

No, it should adjust automatically to your working pattern. And as I said, if you haven't turned it on and Windows notices you work a lot of the time outside active hours it will suggest in a notification that you turn on automatic adjustment.

Whenever I'm working on something and it needs an update, I'll just save, restart, and continue on my phone while it's doing that.

I was just Notified that KB890830 was ready for install. It is for Malicious Software Removal. My normal process is to use WUSHOWHIDE to hide what is offered, and then do some research to see what to do with it. I checked and I have a previous month for KB890830 already installed. Do I just release [unhide] the new version? I'm using the Policy Editor set to 2 so I get Notifications first. Just trying to get some personal policies in place. If I unhide it does it get the Quality deferral of 15 days applied? I'm obviously on a Win10 Pro system [1809 with 1903 deferred 365 days]

the download and install link for 1903 was showing in my windows updates. after that i went to update setting and i deferred the build upgrade for 365 days, i paused windows updates and i unpaused. if you unpause the windows updates then it does a check for important updates but since i put defer for 365 days then it is forced to obey it do the download and install link for 1903 went away

How do I find this location to change to: "Notify you of the availability of an update?"

Group Policy Editor, Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Update > Configure Automatic Updates.
