But what if you want to anyway? One reason to consider metering your data connection is because you can control Windows 10's mandatory updates - Microsoft will not automatically download updates on a metered connection, allowing you to update the OS at your own pace (to manually download an update on a metered connection, just go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update and click Download).īecause Microsoft hasn't built metering Ethernet connections into Windows 10, you'll need to take a trip into the Registry Editor to change this setting. If you're hooked up to the Internet via Ethernet, you apparently have no reason to limit your data usage, according to Microsoft. ( Learn how to meter your wireless connection here.) Well.easy if you happen to be using a nonwired connection, such as Wi-Fi or cellular data, that is. Because Windows 10 is a "universal" operating system - that is, an operating system for both mobile devices and PCs - Microsoft has made limiting your data connection easy.
