    I just want to know why my Windows 10 laptop is waking up by itself in the middle of the night to apply updates it isn’t supposed to have? What the fuck?!

        Thanks. It was set to Allow Important Only when plugged in, I’ve disabled it. This prevents me from using Wake-On-Lan, though, which is shitty. I fucking hate Windows.

          You can also set a group policy to allow no updates at all except when you approve and download them manually.

          Ridiculous that you need the group policy manager for the basic setting of “don’t put shit on my PC without asking,” but here we are.

        They can do that, but the next update they actually decide to apply… will rewrite all/most of those changes.

      To answer the question as written: yes.
