Can you suggest a way to keep this from downloading when I’m tethered to my phone? It sounds like I’d be blowing through most of my data just to download these patches. (Sorry for the dumb question — I never had to worry about this with Windows 7.)

Nor have I, no MS Win 7 patches downlaod in over two and a half years, and no issues at all. The Nvidia graphics card, sure, MS, never.

There is a “metered connection” setting in Windows 10. See: http://www.groovypost.com/howto/manage-windows-10-data-usage/

I know longer have to worry about Windows hassles...went Mac about 4 years ago (hassling with Windows became too much after 20 years...at my age you just want it to work, no tinkering needed).
