Online activity for Store/Universal apps might also be limited.Īnother thing to note is the use of peer-to-peer updates will also be disabled.
By setting a wireless network as metered (see below) you can also disable Windows Store app updates (although desktop apps - such as your browser - will auto-update as normal), as well as restrict status/news updates to live tiles. It isn't just Windows Updates that can be blocked from being downloaded over a metered connection. Windows 10 doesn't download updates via metered connections, so I would have made it to the end of the month with the vast majority of my data allowance intact, as usual. Windows Update ( which can be temporarily disabled) ate my mobile data allowance, but if I had defined the connection as metered, then this would not have happened. Well, there's my problem, explained above. This is extremely useful if you regularly tether your smartphone, or have capped bandwidth from your domestic internet provider. Metered connection settings in Windows 10 means that you can place restrictions on data that the operating system downloads in the background. What Does Setting a Connection as Metered Do?
