Which is unfortunate. It's even a PITA to disable them by way of regedit and filesystem trickery. Windows has really shifted over to the non-tech people market.
It certainly Is most unfortunate that end-users need to resort to measures such as the Registry, just to disable an option (Windows Update) that should not have been removed to begin with.
I disable the Windows Update service, which Is done with a few clicks of the mouse.
I also remember the time that on older versions of iOS, you could choose to decline the software update. However, in newer versions of iOS, you can only select to either perform the update right away, or to postpone it for later. These technology corporations are becoming dramatically more pushy, irritating, and arrogant.
