I followed some privacy settings advice to turn off the P2P settings for Windows Update two weeks ago:

Start>Settings>Update & Security>Windows Update>Advanced Options>Choose How Updates Are Delivered (toggle to OFF)

Only to go in again and find that the setting was back to ON.

At the same time I did mine I had my sibling do the same.  Went to check and, yes, that computer was also switched with P2P delivery ON.

We did the okay using an Admin password.  Going back (without turning the computer off) shows it still off, but I'm now convinced that when I turn it off tonight and back on later that P2P will be ON again.

Am I missing something?  (Besides my sanity.)

Ah... Never mind.  Went back and see that it's the (dot) options that need to be clicked (top option only) rather than the On/Off toggle.

It is nice when people solve their own problems.  Hope you're doing well.

And especially nice when they come back and post the solution rather than just leave the thread dangling. So I too am glad you got it sorted out and thanks for posting your followup.

As i see all is correct. If you miss one of the updates, later Windows will offer it again.
