Well I've had no updates for years and no problems with any nasties with a combination of Defender ( which does update) and Malwarebytes. A friend who has standard Windows gets all the updates and more often than not an update causes some issue or another needing another update to correct the problem the last one caused.
Manual updates are not available as an option.
Can you point me to where Kovid's registry changes you mention are listed so I can see if they are the same as the ones that have been applied to my registry?
