If there are more than one PC using
Windows 10 over your local network, then you can also configure that Windows
Updates are delivered throughout your network. If you turn on this feature,
then your PC may get or deliver Windows Updates to or from other Windows 10
computers available on your network in addition to Microsoft Servers. This
feature can help speed up the update process, when your local area computers
will be exchanging windows updates with each other, instead of separately
downloading from Microsoft Update server.

If you are interested in testing the
new Windows Insider Builds, then you can also configure the setting by
clicking, Getting Started under Get Insider Preview Builds. But do note that,
there could be some major consequences to upgrading to Insider Preview Builds,
as these builds are not fully tested and you may require to completely
reinstall the Windows from scratch if something went wrong. You should not try

If you think that the latest build is
giving you problem and not working as the way you want it, then you can also
revert back to the previous Windows Build. For instance, I recently upgraded to
latest Windows 10 Build, 10586. So if I plan to revert back to the previous
build, I can do this right from the Settings window, by clicking on Recovery
from the left side pane. Here I can ask Windows to revert back to previous
build.
