I think they changed something. Windows 10 updates used to cripple my
home connection, but lately I haven't noticed them.
I have recently had an incident where some Windows system process is
downloading something from a Microsoft IP address and that download
crippled me. Settings -> Updates & Security didn't indicate any update
was downloading. I think I eventually determined it to be the Windows
Defender that was doing the downloading, but I don't remember how I
concluded that.

Subject: [AFMUG] Windows 10 update speed
So it seems like when a customer wants to update a windows 10 machine,
it will gladly and readily take all available bandwidth (and more).
I'm updating 2 brand new windows 10 machines in the NOC, plugged into
gigabit Ethernet, and they're downloading the windows updates at
<2mb/s. I would have expected them to just fly.
