Add Windows Update to the Windows 10 Control Panel

If you use the classic Control Panel of , μπορεί να έχετε παρατηρήσει ότι δεν υπάρχει το Windows . If you want to add it follow the instructions below:Windows Update Control Panel

Two things will help us add Windows Update to Control Panel:

Window Update can be started with the following command:

control.exe / name Microsoft.WindowsUpdate

and Shell32.dll which still contains the required lines to be used by the table .

So with the simple tweak below, we can restore Windows Update to the Control Panel and the System path to the security class.

From this tweak, it works flawlessly in the latest stable version of Windows 10, build 10586 (November Update)

To add Windowws Update to the Control Panel, download and run the .reg file named Windows-10-add-WindowsUpdate.reg on your computer (double-click).

Confirm with Yes to add the new command to the Registry

There are two .reg files in the zip file. The second .reg is to remove the tweak if you decide it at some point.

Download the .zip.

The file with the Registry command contains the following code:
