Controlling - Windows Updates

Found this from a PM on the Windows Server team. The "Available updates will be downloaded..." text in the UI is a bug that doesn't represent the actual automatic update settings.

To verify the actual server settings, you can open the command prompt and run sconfig.cmd; in the menu, you should see option 5 set to Manual.

Disabling AU via the registry is documented here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd939844(v=ws.10).aspx
