I was thinking having this windows 10 was a blessing due to seamless application usage and installation but this days I have to admit if care is not taken I'll become homeless very soon, in the past few days I've been spending not less than 10gig per day just by only using google chrome. Abeg has anyone also experienced this, how to curb this situation?? Nb: I've followed almost every advice I found online even ending tasks on task manager, stopping background data, and setting metered connection. |

Maxxim:make sure to disable windows automatic update. It maybe activitie and each time you're online. It's starts to update, if it doesn't finish and your data gets exhausted, it starts afresh from the beginning when it sees you have subscribed new data |

One of the reasons i switched to linux On your run app( win + r ) Enter services.msc Scroll down for windows update and change startup type to disabled. Enter start type edit group policy then enter Enter computer config Admin templates windows components Windows updates enter Then look for configure automatic updates disable it Go to settings Windows updates Advanced options Disable everything there Restart PC it should stop consuming those huge data |
