RV_ Posted December 30, 2016 Report Share Posted December 30, 2016 Windows updates will soon be able to be delayed for up to 35 days. For RVrs and others this allows them to download from free WiFi instead of using their paid data plans. Windows pro can still defer all system upgrades and get only the security updates as I do with my main system. Excerpt: "Microsoft could finally be solving one of Windows 10's biggest irritations: automatic updates. Winaero’s Sergey Tkachenko noticed a new feature that would allow users to delay an update for up to 35 days in a recent leaked build of the Windows 10 Creator Update."

Dale P Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 For Windows 10, just set it to Meter, if using a MiFi (cellar) hotspot. Better yet do a Search ":windows 10 data hog", and you will see HOW to limit data usage while on a cellar data plan.

rdickinson Posted January 11, 2017 Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 If you use Microsoft Streets and Trips as a nav system, the newest update is not compatible with the gps receiver. There is a fix, get an old computer with Windows 7 or 8, gut it and load only MS&T. I've had to do it. Use it only for Nav, nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biker56 Posted January 11, 2017 Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 If you use Microsoft Streets and Trips as a nav system, the newest update is not compatible with the gps receiver. The last update I know about was over a year ago. MS web page on S&T "Current users may continue to use Streets & Trips to plan their travel adventures and will have mainstream support until July 14, 2015" Where did this latest update you got come from?
