It appears that it does.

However this forced update thing is only a problem for the Home version. The 
Pro, Enterprise and Education versions have a supported method of turning this 
behaviour off via a menu option or group policy, and anyone using Win 10 in a 
business or education context should be using one of those versions.

Yes. The "I'm on a metered connection" works for Home, too. I'm doing
family tech support on this one. However, I tried the "put on hold"
option for the 1803 update, and then switched the Ethernet to
unmetered and it _still_ installed the brand-new, unpatched, buggy
1803 "Feature Update" at 1.65 gigabytes. Microsoft's new motto of
"We're going to do what we think is good for you whether you like it
or not" is a bit presumptuous. Next time, I'm installing "Pro" on all
the machines I have to support.



So, all they have to do for you to open your wallet and pay for more than you need is to bugger you on the Home edition?
