In order to protect software from being copied without licence, I would like to use something like a key, which fits only to the current system. The serial number of the CPU or the current operating system would be appropriate. However, I do not know how to retrieve the information. Could you help? Klaus

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
