SAMSUNG DISABLES WINDOWS UPDATE
Samsung has disabled the windows update on some Samsung laptops.This was first discovered by Microsoft's MVP Patrick Baker.He eventually reported this issue to Samsung technical team to which they replied "When Windows updates the system, they install default drivers because of which some hardware components may not work".
This doesn't seem to be a convincing answer.Windows updates are essential to fix security problems and remove bugs.If you have a Samsung laptop and if you find "Disable_Windowsupdate.exe" in your laptop then you may not receive any Windows 10 notification until anyone finds a way around it.
