Unfortunately, you can't also turn automatic updates off on Windows Pro and can only set telemetry to basic. And I am as hopeful as you about Windows NN version :)

A user on another forum said that using the group policy editor to change update settings work (he changed it to notify before download), But that was ~2 month's ago or so.

I have also read that disabling the update service works too :rolleyes:

I found a person who did some basic analysis here and found minimal(<3MiB) bandwidth usage for telemetry.

-Edit-

(Forgot to ask)

Have you tried disabling the updates or setting them to notify first?

I both disable it through group policy (not notify) and disable service and it works. By saying "you can't" , I mean "you're not supposed to" and not guaranteed that you will be able to after an update.

And for telemetry, I use DWS lite and not sure if it does something beyond addings hosts and firewall rules. Just hope it works somehow.

I have managed to get the June Win10 ISO (1511.2) installed in a VMWare machine(Upgraded the win8 test machine).

It turns out that Win10 does not like VMWares SCIS drives, So changing them for IDE worked.

Unfortunetly I had to find a generic key as the OS was not activated (I was using it for varius testing purposes: Cloning, Compiling UE4), So I have a Win10 Home in a VM for testing.
Unfortunetly the old VMWare tools for guest OS that I have only gives it D3D9Ex, Going to look into getting the new tools sometime.

It seams I hit a problem with a clean install in a new VM, I did not see a prompt to ask for edition(Home/Pro), So the VM got Home.

"Activating" with a Pro generic key has got done something.

I plan on seeing what happens when I connect the VM to the internet, I should probably get the newest version of Wireshark to see what happens.

And then to try and understand the capture...

It looks a lot more like Win7 (At least of what I know about 7).
