I can see there is 5 new line after your
?>
it would change the content of the file. to make sure check the file size in the server and the file size that you upload i guess you will get few bytes differetn

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.
