Disabling Automatic Windows Updates

Posted by Dan Thibodeau on 16 October 2019 09:40 AM

Automatic Windows updates can be intrusive to kiosk use. Windows updates can be manually applied as needed by IT administrators to keep the machine secure and up to date.

To disable Windows updates on a kiosk, first open up the Windows Services by clicking the start menu and searching “Services”.

Find the Windows update service and stop it. Then you can right click and enter Properties and select “Disabled” for startup type to stop it from turning back on after a restart.

Next to ensure it does not re-enable itself, you can also enter false log-on information in the “Log On” tab.

Select “Ok” and you are done disabling Automatic Windows Updates.
