Disable windows 10 updates permanently

Windows 10 is a pain in the ass when it comes to the update policy, here's how to prevent windows 10 from ever downloading and installing any future updates

  1. Go to C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution 
  2. Delete all files and folders inside but not the SoftwareDistribtion folder itself
  3. Right Click on the SoftwareDistribution folder and go to the security tab
  4. Set all folder permissions to deny for all Users except the Administrators
  5. Windows should now be prevented from downloading and installing any updates for Windows 10
