Windows 10 Consumer

Windows 10 Consumer

Does this work with Windows 10 Home/Consumer editions? As far as I can tell, there is no way to disable Windows Updates in the Home edition, or to even point to a separate WSUS server. It seems Microsoft gutted all the configuration options from the Home edition of Windows 10. Does this program work with that, or do you need at least Windows 10 Pro?

It does work with Windows 10 Home if you are offline. Of course, with active Internet connection, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

You could download and use the WinaeroTweaker program from http://winaero.com and set your Ethernet connection as "Metered" (WiFi is set over Windows Settings). Then, Windows 10 will not automatically download and install updates. You can then use WSUSOU or a WU replacement like WUMT (Windows Update MiniTool), instead.

Is WSUSOU = WSUSOffline updategenerator.exe?

WSUSOU is the whole shebang. The Generator downloads, the Installer (in .\client or on the created media) installs.
