I know you can’t in home edition. But home edition is for ordinary user. Which is why updates can’t be disabled. Because if you don’t have enough experience or knowledge, you can’t easily handle the situation when OS crashes or some unexpected trouble comes from the dark side of the force. It may be easy to you. With updates always enabled Microsoft can promise the most consistent experience as much as they can provide (at least they think so).
If updates cause new troubles, that’s the different situation which is really bad. If you’re experienced user and can’t choose which updates to install, that’s another situation which is not good.
Security updates to Windows Defender and Microsoft Security Essentials (this one is for Windows 7) are the same. I’m downloading them manually. Because I have several PCs and don’t want them to waste my bandwidth.
Yeah well the original issue was that Microsoft could push UWP or etc. changes/updates to users and make disadvantage to others. Many of end users as in gamers are using these forced update editions.
