SAVE BANDWIDTH

Did you know that Windows uses peer-to-peer technology to deliver Windows updates? What this means is your internet connection is used to share updates you’ve downloaded with other users. If you’re on a slow broadband connection, or you’d rather not let Microsoft do this you can change it. Click ‘Start’ and choose ‘Settings’. Select ‘Update & Security’ and click ‘Advanced options’ under Windows Update. Next, click ‘Choose how updates are delivered’ and either switch the feature o or select ‘PCs on my local network’ to further cut bandwidth usage by only sharing the updates between PCs in your home.
