For windows the update size is 5 gb however the internet connection in India allows only 1 gb download daily . How to split and download the update separately in 1gb daily, so that only 1 gb is downloaded daily. Any software details will be appreciated

You can try follow these steps:

Right-click the Start Menu and select Command Prompt (right click it to Run as Administrator).
Enter: net stop wuauserv
Enter: net stop bits
Enter: net stop dosvc
Close the Command Prompt window.

Each command may take a few seconds to complete. If you want to reverse the process and resume downloads, follow these steps:


Right-click the Start Menu and select Command Prompt (right click it to Run as Administrator).
Enter: net start wuauserv
Enter: net start bits
Enter: net start dosvc
Close the Command Prompt window.


I decided to disable Windows updates (https://www.forbes.com/sites/gordonkelly/2015/08/26/windows-10-how-to-stop-forced-updates/#6c69ef2646f6) long time ago. This is not advised, but i trust my firewall, antivirus and spybot tea timer.
