Connect to network shared by my contacts

 

Windows 10 Update

Why do we need to stop Windows update option “updates from more than one place”?

In windows 10 there is an option “updates from more than one places” so that user can download updates from other computers and send updates to other computer also. So in this mechanism it can use your bandwidth also.  So it is better to off this feature to avoid your system working as an update server for other systems. It is a great feature but we need to off this to save bandwidth also in case if there is any data limit by service provider.

You can off this feature using below steps:-

Start->Settings->Update & Security

Windows update->advanced option->Choose how updates are delivered->Updates from more than one places->off
