Windows Updates can now be paused for up to 35 days (and more)
You can now pause Windows Updates for up to 35 days, which can be extended again and again without any limits. Technically, indefinitely? I guess.
The Power menu will now always show the normal Restart and Shut down, so you can reboot or power off without installing pending updates.
Driver, .NET and firmware updates are now being coordinated with the monthly quality update, reducing update experience to a single monthly restart. Driver updates will now also list the device class (audio, battery, etc.). You can now also skip updates immediately during OOBE.
