    Hi andrei186,

    Yes, It is possible to disable Windows Update from the registry, please copy the below registry values in notepad, save as NoUpdate.reg, and double-click on the file to merge into the registry.

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU]
"NoAutoUpdate"=dword:00000001
"AUOptions"=dword:00000002

It does not hang, but as I informed, it keeps itself busy doing some job of its own which makes the computer totally unusable for about 9 min every time I loging. Is it designed to work like this?
