windows 10 shut down without updating
Windows Updates have become quite weird. Microsoft has taken a lot of options for configuring Windows Updates from the users in Windows 10. For example, now there is no option to disable updates. Now it is mandatory to install updates. The users can “pause” the updates temporarily.
One annoying activity of Windows updates is that users have to restart their system to complete the update process. If not configured properly, Windows will restart on its own scheduled times even without notifying the user.
After the restart, sometimes Windows 10 takes a lot of time for updating the system. If you are in a hurry and want to restart the system without waiting for the updates to install, Microsoft does not give you any option.
In this article, we will discuss about the solution to this very problem. After following this article, you will be able to bypass installation of pending updates on system shutdown/restart.
If you click on the Power icon, you will get something like the above mentioned screenshot. Windows will give you to update and shut down or update and restart. There is no option to shut down or restart without installing the updates.
Quick Summary
2 Bypass update on restart/shutdown process using command line
There is a simple trick to bypass this shutdown/restart process. Follow the instructions below to bypass the Windows updates installation process on system shutdown/restart.
Disable update on restart option using Group Policy
Sometimes Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc) is a life saver in these types of situations. There is an option in Windows Group Policy “Do not display ‘Install Updates and Shut Down’ option in Shut Down Windows dialog box“. Enabling this option will make Install updates and shut down option disappear. The normal Shut down only option will appear.
This is a permanent option. This means that the shut down and update or restart and update options will not appear in the Shut down dialog box. For installing update and restarting the computer, you will need to go to Settings –> Windows Update and select the install updates and restart from there.
The option is located here:
Computer Configuration –> Administrative Templates –>Windows Components –> Windows Update.
Bypass update on restart/shutdown process using command line
If you want to bypass update on restart/shutdown process temporarily, you may do it using command line.
Basically we have to stop the Windows update service before restarting or shutting down the PC. We do it like this:
Go to Run –> net stop wuauserv This will stop the Windows Update service.
Go to Run –> shutdown -s -t 0
This will shutdown the system immediately. If you want to restart the system, give the following command:
Go to Run –> shutdown -r -t 0Best auction house addon.
Or you can run both the commands at the same time like this:
net stop wuauserv && shutdown -r -t 0
This command will enable you to shut down or restart your system without installing Windows Updates.
If you are still having issues with your Windows Update configuration, feel free to ask in the comments below.

Tip
Before proceeding with the four solutions to fully stop Windows 10 updates, check your own Windows 10 edition (Home, Professional, Education or Enterprise) by going to Settings -> System -> About so that you can find the most appropriate solution. Besides, the fourth way of trying to control the Windows 10 update by using Registry is somewhat risky, do remember to back up your data and the details will be shown in the extra tips section.
How to Disable Windows 10 Update
Follow the methods below to disable Windows 10 update correctly.
Solution 1. Disable Windows Update Service
Understand the limitations of this method. While disabling the automatic update service will temporarily halt any Windows 10 cumulative updates, the service will re-enable itself after a certain amount of time. Here are the directions:
It cannot be picked up again once dropped out of the inventory, due to a game engine setting that disallows pickup by the player. However, if used by a non-player character other than the, it will not work properly and deal no damage. When it is drawn from the holster, it plays the sound that plays when the stranger himself appears in. If given to a non-player character (with.44 Magnum rounds) through the console, they will use this weapon.
1. Press the Windows logo key + Rat the same time to invoke the Run box.
2.Type services.msc and press Enter.
3. Scroll down to Windows Update, and double-click it.
4. In Startup type, select 'Disabled'. Then click 'Apply' and 'OK' to save the settings.
Solution 2. Change the Setting of the Group Policy Editor
The Group Policy feature is not available in the Home edition. So, only when you run Windows 10 Professional, Enterprise, or Education, you can use the Group Policy Editor to change the settings to prevent Windows 10 from automatically updating. The group policy editor will notify you of new updates without automatically installing them.
Press the Windows logo key + R then type gpedit.msc and click OK.
Go to 'Computer Configuration' > 'Administrative Templates' > 'Windows Components' > 'Windows Update'.
Double-click 'Configure Automatic Updates'.
Select 'Disabled' in Configured Automatic Updates on the left, and click Apply and 'OK'to disable the Windows automatic update feature.
Note: If you need to update your Windows version later, you can repeat the steps above, then select Enabled to turn on this feature, so that you can continue to download the updates.
Solution 3. Meter Your Network Connection
Understand that this method won't work for Ethernet connections. You can only disable automatic updates by using this method on a Wi-Fi connection. If your computer is connected to WiFi, you can try this to stop Windows 10 automatic updates.
1. Click the Start button at the bottom left on your desktop, then click the 'Settings' app.
2. Click 'Network & Internet'.
3. Click WiF in the left pane, then click the name of your Wi-Fi connection.
4. Click to turn on Set as metered connection.
Solution 4. Change the way of Windows 10 Updates Using Registry
Extra Tips: Editing the registry is risky, and it can cause irreversible damage to your installation if you don't do it correctly. It's recommended that you make a full backup of your computer before proceeding. All you need to do is use this free backup software to back up your data in three steps:
Tip
You'd better create the backup file on an external disk or on the cloud in case the local backup gets corrupted or destroyed.
Step 1: Launch EaseUS Todo Backup software and then choose 'File Backup', 'Disk/partition Backup' or 'System Backup' for different backup purpose.
Step 2: Choose the system, disk partition, files or apps that you want to back up. Then select a destination where you want to store the backup file.
Step 3: Click 'Proceed' to start the data backup process.
With a backup at hand, now it's safe to customize a Windows 10 update without receiving any forced updates on your computer. Here's how to make the change in Registry:
1. Use the Windows key + R keyboard shortcut to open the Run command.

3. Right-click the Windows (folder) key, select 'New' and then click 'Key'.
4. Name the new key 'WindowsUpdate' and press 'Enter'.
5. Right-click the newly created key, select 'new', and click 'Key'.
6. Name the new key AU and press Enter. Inside the newly created key, right-click on the right side, select 'New', and click on 'DWORD (32-bit) Value'.
