follow these steps carefully
But before i proceed i will like to tell you that outdated OS is a kind of a vulnerability to your system
lets get down to the real deal

connect your system to the internet via hotspot
now press ctrl+ shift +esc then click "performance" then click "wifi and check the readings it should read 0kbs and 0kbs if you are not browsing or downloading anything with your system..
now locate "open resource monitor" then click it then click "network activity" and check the list ..on the list look for "svchost(netsvcs)" they should be like two to three of them..they should also be located down the list ..
hurray your auto update problem is solved..now browse with rest of mind as no hidden data is been consumed...if you do not browse or download with your system,your data will still remain the same.
if this does not work, pls retry the steps the second time and if it still did not work, that means you have been hacked and files are being sent to the hacker anything you connect and the solution to that is to flash your system and install another OS on it....
