Thanks Jay, i've installed Wu10Man as it seems the more logical option given i don't want to disable, or at this moment in time have any need to block updates, i just want to know what the updates are going to do before i choose whether or not to install them.
[Driver updates i see as a seperate enitity and i've already disabled them from being updated by Microsoft.]That said, i likely won't know for a few weeks (until next month's round of Windows Updates) if the change will work.
Finding the setting in Wu10Man to change automatic updates had me scratching my head for a few minutes because it's not displayed as an option by default after installation which i found a bit odd, so i clicked on 'File > View Legacy' and that opened an option to where i presumably needed to be.
When i did find the setting to change how updates were presented by Windows 10 there is a "NOTE" that suggests this Group Policy Edit no longer works as of Windows 10 build 2004 - see attached screenshot.
As i said, i likely won't know if this still works or not until MS rollout another update to my PC but i'll revisit this thread with the result as soon as that happens.
Fyi, the build of Wu10Man i installed is 4.4.0.0 which is afact the latest and final build of the programme because the author has said on Github he won't be developing or supporting it any longer.
