reading that genuinely made me feel slightly ill

to add a way to disable updates:

  • click your windows symbol
  • type ‘administrative tools’ and open it
  • click on ‘services’
  • click on ‘windows update’
  • click ‘stop’ (it may take a couple of times) 

this SHOULD stop it, but it will try to restart automatically. you can fix this the automatic re-starting issue. to do so:

  • double-click on ‘windows update’ 
  • go to ‘start-up type’
  • select ‘disabled’
  • you should be okay (SHOULD)

when the update is safe (”safe”) you will have to go back and automatically start the updater again. i, uh, truly recommend turning it off for all updates, until all the glitches are fixed, bc windows will straight up screw you over, so, also

back up your files, if at all possible

stay frosty, my friends

also, there are easier ways to pause the updates if you have pro, i think. i don’t have it, so i have to take the long way.
