• Is a Win10 1607 cumulative update re-enabling a disabled Windows Update service?

    Posted on October 16, 2017 at 21:24 CDT by • Comment in the Forums

    Intriguing question posed by Günter Born. He’s in contact with a Win10 1607 user (yes, Anniversary Update, not Creators Update) who had manually turned off the Windows Update service. After installing one of the October patches, Stefan says the Windows Update service now starts automatically.

    Stefan believes one of these patches flipped the Windows Update service back on: KB 4038782, 3186568, 4033637, 4035631, or the Flash Player update.

    Can anybody else confirm?
