This method is very easy and completely safe, although not mentioned by Microsoft anywhere (since they obviously want to control your PC much more than is necessary for you).

I'm still wondering what this video was that you're referring to. Winfrey's link in post #1136280 points to a Google list and Winfrey's link in a post #1136288 points to an article at windowscentral.com, not a video.

Are you referring to telling the computer it has a metered connection? to disabling the update service? or some other fix?

Sorry, I was referring to the first video that comes up on that Google search (at least on my computer):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTr8XuOBYZI

I'm talking about disabling the update service. It's described at 2:25 in the video.
