******************************************************************
You may freely modify this script as you wish, I only request that you leave the credits and the
link to the original script.
******************************************************************
Don't move this script to another folder without running it again or the tasks won't work!
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!
NSudo is available here: https://github.com/M2Team/NSudo/releases/tag/6.1
*******************************************************************
How it works: The script first checks if the OS is Windows 8.1 or older and if so
it notifies the user, then exits. Windows 10 only!
This script creates a smart Windows Defender Update task "WDU" that updates Windows
Defender every 6 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, disables everything in the %programfiles%\rempl folder, resets and
removes permissions from and disables these Update Hijackers:
EOSNotify.exe
WaaSMedic.exe
WaasMedicSvc.dll
WaaSMedicPS.dll
WaaSAssessment.dll
UsoClient.exe
SIHClient.exe
MusNotificationUx.exe
MusNotification.exe
osrss.dll
%ProgramFiles%\rempl
%systemroot%\UpdateAssistant
%systemroot%\UpdateAssistantV2
%systemdrive%\Windows10Upgrade
disables all WindowsUpdate tasks
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, installs "WDU" Windows Defender Update task that runs every 2 hours (but doesn't update
Defender if Defender is disabled), 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, renables "WindowsUpdate" tasks, 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 files are removed also.
*******************************************************************
Configurator leaves the Update Hijackers disabled, but gives you the option of turning on the windows
update service temporarily to use the Store or any other operation that requires the windows update
service, such as some DISM operations, installing dotNet 3.5, App Updates, etc.
