Right-click on the gpedit.msc result and select Run as Administrator. In the Group Policy Editor, use the hierarchical list of options on the left side of the window to navigate to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Data and Preview Builds.
Go into Classic Control Panel, select “System”, “Advanced system settings”, then under “System Properties, Computer Name”, Select “Network ID” and select “This is a home computer, not part of a business network”, and select “Next”. You will be prompted to “Finish” and that’s it. So far as I can tell, depending on build, where and how Win 10 was installed, or other astronomical events, Windows 10 automatically sets itself up as if in a domain.
That did two things for me, it got rid of the “Some things …” message and ungrayed the box allowing additional options for how updates are delivered. The catch is that you now have to set up a Home Network if you have not already done so.
This does not stop MS’s automatic updates but it does offer some breathing room.

I’m now looking into somewhat civilized ways to better control auto updating and “maintenance”, which basically looks like a script of some sort, rather like bulldozing a forest to cut down one tree.
