Windows 10 is about to drop at the end of the month.
The ability to turn updates off entirely will be completely removed.
Heres the relevant section of the EULA:
Updates.
The software periodically checks for system and app updates, and downloads and installs them for you.
By accepting this agreement, you agree to receive these types of automatic updates without any additional notice.
Of course, until Windows 10 is officially released, anything could still change.
In fact, Microsoft hasntannouncedthis at all, yet.
However, given Microsofts new Windows-as-a-service approach, this may be inevitable.
