Some are set at an interval, some are set at startup. On your own, you can disable them and things will be ok, but Windows has a couple tasks that will turn those back on. There are two that seem to control everything: Windows Update Service and Windows Module Installer. When in doubt, you can disable the Windows 10 services that run the updates.

Random apps that either aren't needed or that are added bloatware.

With 4.0, I realized another major annoyance of Windows 10 is a lot of bloatware. Version 3.1.0 has over 10k downloads and 4.0.0 over 17k! So I've felt a little obiligated to keep this updated. It probably would have died there, but it seems people are liking this application. It grew from there as Microsoft tweaked how they ran and protected the update service. This started out as a project to shut down the Windows Update mechanic.
