How do i stop window 10 from installing the KB4601319 update ?

[AthlonXP1800]

Windows 10 is notorious for it - isn't just me (Google "windows 10 update taking hours", etc.)

Not just only Windows 10.

For the last 23 years I been read endless posts on internet from people about updates took hours.

Windows 98 is notorious for it - isn't just me (Google "windows 98 update taking hours", etc.)

Windows 98SE is notorious for it - isn't just me (Google "windows 98SE update taking hours", etc.)

Windows Me is notorious for it - isn't just me (Google "windows Me update taking hours", etc.)

Windows 2000 is notorious for it - isn't just me (Google "windows 2000 update taking hours", etc.)

Windows XP is notorious for it - isn't just me (Google "windows XP update taking hours", etc.)

Windows Vista is notorious for it - isn't just me (Google "windows Vista update taking hours", etc.)

Windows 7 is notorious for it - isn't just me (Google "windows 7 update taking hours", etc.)

Windows 8 is notorious for it - isn't just me (Google "windows 8 update taking hours", etc.)

Windows 8.1 is notorious for it - isn't just me (Google "windows 8.1 update taking hours", etc.)

Windows 10 is notorious for it - isn't just me (Google "windows 10 update taking hours", etc.)

OS X is notorious for it - isn't just me (Google "OS X update taking hours", etc.)

MacOS is notorious for it - isn't just me (Google "MacOS update taking hours", etc.)

Chrome OS is notorious for it - isn't just me (Google "Chrome OS update taking hours", etc.)

Linux is notorious for it - isn't just me (Google "Linux update taking hours", etc.)

Hopefully Windows 10X will fix "update taking hours" with seamless update and this feature will be porting to Windows 10 later.

wumgr is your best friend.

1 - set updates to notify only in group policy
2 - use wumgr to manage updates, including been able to hide/disable updates.

Attaching screenshot (I disabled cpu microcode update).

Also if you have home edition (so no group policy) or just cant be bothered to do it that way, you can click an option in wumgr to disable the auto updates an alternate way.

As a a bonus my control panel

Not just only Windows 10.

I'm not saying others haven't experienced it, I'm just saying I can't recall an update taking such an inordinate amount of time in my experience. Perhaps categorically stating no update has ever taken me more than 30 minutes to install was a bit excessive, but I can say that I can't remember one taking that long, perhaps bar upgrades between releases (eg Win 98 to Win ME [shudder]).

Never said it didn't happen on other OSes - but at least on most of those you have actual, common sense, control over updates so as to mitigate issues if they do happen rather than as typically happens the worst problems when you need to use the system the most urgently :s

I still don't know why MS won't do the sensible thing and split out security and feature updates properly either so people have actual ability to stay current on the security front in a convenient fashion.

wumgr is your best friend.

Downside is you have to rely on a 3rd party utility, so far most of those kind of utilities haven't managed to completely remove Windows 10 from undesirable update behaviour and may have complications when you do need to update due to the utility being rendered outdated or having other compatibility issues

Even group policies aren't a bullet proof solution as they found out recently at work when mid operation systems were trying to force through an update and restart.......... I can't see them continuing to use Windows 10 in a lot of areas in the longer run.

I know windows forces through servicing stack updates regardless of group policy, but otherwise it has worked ok for me.
