******************************************************************
You may freely modify this script as you wish, I only request that you leave the credits and the
link to the original script.
******************************************************************
This script provides manual updating for Windows 10 including Home versions.
Update Windows 10 on your schedule, not Microsoft's.
I originally wrote this script for personal use because of the lack of update options with the
original RTM release of Windows 10 Pro. I wanted to update Windows 10 when I had the free time
to manually update, just like I did with previous versions of Windows that allowed me to
set updates to manual, not when Microsoft forced it on me while I was busy using my computer.
*******************************************************************
WUMT is available here: https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/64939-Windows-Update-MiniTool
Windows Update Blocker is available here: http://sordum.org/files/windows-update-blocker/old/Wub_v1.0.zip
Only use Windows Update Blocker v1.0 with this script, not v1.1.
*******************************************************************
How it works: The script first checks if the OS is Windows 8.1 or older and if so
it bypasses the Windows 10 Update Hijacker disable portion of the script.
This script creates a smart Windows Defender Update task "WDU" that updates Windows
Defender every 2 hours if it's running and enabled, and doesn't update it if it's not
running and disabled, saving resources; auto-elevates, uninstalls and removes the
Windows 10 Update Assistant, renames the %programfiles%\rempl* folder, resets and
removes permissions from and disables these Update Hijackers:
remsh.exe*
osrss.dll
UsoClient.exe
WaaSMedic.exe
WaasMedicSvc.dll
WaaSMedicPS.dll
WaaSAssessment.dll
MusNotification.exe
MusNotificationUx.exe
SIHClient.exe
makes sure the task "wub_task" is installed that runs wub at boot (to stop updates from turning
updates back on), runs wub.exe and enables and starts the windows update service (wuauserv) if
disabled (*wub can be disabled using the included Configurator.cmd script, leaving Windows Updates
always running so you can use Store and Defender at any time), then runs the correct version of
the Windows Update MiniTool in "auto search for updates" mode for your OS version's architecture
(x86 or x64), then disables and stops wuauserv giving you full control. No more forced automatic
updates or surprise reboots. This was written for Windows 10 Pro and Home, but works with all
versions of Windows 10. Don't change any settings in lower left of WUMT while running the script.
*******************************************************************
I also included an uninstaller.cmd that deletes the WDU and wub_task tasks, deletes the WDU.cmd
file used by WDU task, restores the rempl folder, resets Update Hijacker permissions to how they
were originally, and turns off wub (if enabled) which turns the windows update service on automatic
again, undoing everything done by the script. If you uninstall after having used the installer the
script folder is removed also.
*******************************************************************
Configurator leaves the Update Hijackers disabled, but gives you the option of turning on the windows
update service temporarily to use Store, or leave it on permanently to use Store anytime.
*******************************************************************
*If you need to install .Net 3.5 or use the Windows 10 Store or something that needs wuauserv
running, run the script and after it enables wuauserv and starts WUMT, install what you need
after WUMT checks for updates, before closing WUMT. If you ran the Configurator to "leave
the Windows Update Service running at all times" you can ignore this note as the store will
work at any time.

echo Automatic updates are now turned off (unless overriden

echo process. It automatically disables a range of "Update
echo Hijackers" such as: osrss, rempl, Uso, WaaS, SIH, and
echo Update Assistant. Enables and starts only the Windows
echo Update Service, runs the Windows Update MiniTool (WUMT).
echo After updates, stops and disables the Windows Update
echo service (unless overriden with Configurator). The
echo included uninstaller undoes script changes. Closing WUMT
echo at any time disables updates again (unless overriden
echo with Configurator); however, if WUMT is already offering
echo updates, you need to hide them and/or install them
echo one-by-one before closing WUMT or it may install them
echo without asking next time. Don't change WUMT settings
echo while running this script. If an update requires a
echo reboot, re-run the script after the reboot and just
echo close the first screen to make sure the "Update
echo Hijackers" stay off. Enable update service in
echo Configurator in script to use the Store at the risk of
echo possible unwanted updates if you leave it on. Better to
echo enable updates, use store, then disable updates. Use at
echo your discretion.
