Good afternoon guys! Trying to find a all in one "guide" type of page which explains how to disable O365 auto updates, Edge auto updates, Teams auto updates, Adobe auto updates. For example, I see that Office has been doing some stuff around updates in the middle of the days for a customer. Through Control Up, I can also see that SDXHelper.exe is taking up a lot of CPU randomly and its connected to users. We are managing the updates manually since this is a PVS environment.. I want to start by disabling these auto update traffic to begin with and then I will move on to the other apps.

Whack-a-mole

@Jeff Riechers has some great scripts built just for this GitHub - jeffriechers/VDA_Updates_and_Sealing: PowerShell scripts for updating and sealing non-persistent VDA machines · GitHub

Thanks Eric, I have taken the office & defender part and will check if that can make any difference on the CPU load.
