Win10 update

Any idea how to stop updateorchestrator in win 10(at least since 1809) from waking pc every 15 or 20 min? In win10 pro ver 1903 I have disabled updates for 35 days, but pc will not stay asleep even tho denied access to update server.

 

 

I believe I found a work around for this major pain in the tail, so consider this closed!

Thanks

I'm glad you solved you problem.

 

Care to share the solution in case someone else is having the same issue?

Greetings! Sorry I didn't add this I had 2 days of hunting n pecking before I found this(don't recall where. So far so good!

 

control panel=>power options=>change when computer sleeps=>Change advanced power settings=>+sleep=>+allow wake timers
select disable on battery AND plugged in.
Press Apply.

Let me know if these steps aren't clear and I'll try to help.

I dont know if it's necessary but I restart machine. No more auto wake-up from sleep mode!

 

Be well

Don
