PLEASE! No operating system embedded in the radio. Almost like ice cream, there is more than one flavor.
As to Windows 10 updates, configure for automatic, let it do its thing, and don't mess with the parameters. It is so easy and reliable. Don't make it complicated by trying to run it yourself. You also need to maintain a "clean" computer with regular Cache and Registry cleaning. Leftover and fragments may over ride new updates. Also Virus and Malware issues may interfere with correct operation.
