Yeah, I noticed that but it changes to "manual" once your change the update service.

Which one does? The Windows Update Service or the Windows Update Medic Service? The Windows Update Service will stay disabled for as many days as you set it for. Once that expires, it will restart the service and start receiving updates once again. Although if you set it for 9999 days, updates won't happen before 2047.

Sitting down, facing forward.

The Medic Service seems to change when the Update Service is changed to manual.

I did this. I read some on the 2004 update but didn't see anything there that really was of interest to me except the info on a Linux kernal. Do you know its purpose in an MS update?

If the Windows update is set to 9999 days, will that prevent Windows Security from updating as well? It appeared to me that it may do so.

Nope, it is in Windows 10 Home too.
  • Win+R
  • services.msc
  • scroll down to "Windows Update"
  • Right click and select "Stop" <-- Only if currently running
  • Right click and select Properties
  • General (tab)
  • Startup Type "Disabled"
  • Recovery (tab) See pic

Warning, user beware: I had that problem on the company laptop where the hard drive usage stays near 100% next to forever. I tried various thing to fix it with poor results. This morning it got taken care of. A couple of months ago I read where Microsoft wouldn't let any of their sites link to CCleaner.
Well the registry cleaner in that app worked magic. It now drops to near zero after 85 seconds from loading desktop. But use at your own risk, be sure to use the registry backup offered when you tell it to fix it.

What's new in Windows 10, version 2004 - What's new in Windows

Yes and what is the deal about having the Linux kernal anyway? You can run Linux apps under Windows?

If the Windows update is set to 9999 days, will that prevent Windows Security from updating as well? It appeared to me that it may do so.

Yes I believe that is right. :(

Easy question. Whats the best theme to put on a old lost vape Mirage to get replay?

Thanks in advance.

I use Gingers Boxer theme on all my C's :) My SD 75C was pre replay & the Boxer theme added it, to my SD :) I even added the VapeCige logo instead of the Boxer one, it looks OG like it came that way :) You Can D/L'ed it over there :)

I like the KISS principle so I use the stock Evolv theme.

Do you connect up to EScribe a lot then if you use the stock Evolv theme? As I know I would. But with Frank's theme, there is virtually no reason to even use EScribe anymore, since you can usually just do it in the theme.
