+1. It is inexcusable why MS hasn't done this WAY before now.... it CAN'T be budget constraints....

There is a "cumulative update" coming out today that is supposed to fix a bunch of things (although the exact list of fixes is unknown).
It's KB3081424.

Yeah, M$ have dumbed down the background info on updates even more. Here's the KB item, https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3081424. Look at all those files .. :o - no wonder a restart is required. And all you get by way of explanation is:
--- Quote ---This update includes improvements to enhance the functionality of Windows 10.
Windows 10 updates are cumulative. Therefore, this package contains all previously-released fixes (see KB 3074683). If you have installed previous updates, only the new fixes that are contained in this package will be downloaded and installed to your computer.

Plus, you only get the option to defer the update schedule not avoid/ignore it completely (if that happens to be your desire).

There is a way to prevent Drivers from being auto updated (i.e. perhaps the older NVidia driver works better, etc.)

Hmm, Wi-Fi with Windows 10 has been working fine here. No Ethernet required.

This is clearly going towards a situation where everyone has exactly the same computer system because it is easier for the manufacturer. Somehow people have been conned that this loss of freedom requires a government.
In reality, all businesses gravitate towards situations where they have more control, and the consumer has less control (despite what the Economics textbooks say).
