I dunno about priority, but to keep Windows from auto-downloading and updating when you might be in the middle of something, you can set your network properties to "metered connection".

This reeks of people messing with stuff they shouldn't but who am I to deny you the opportunity to **** up your system?

You say the link you posted "didn't work", what were you expecting and what didn't work with those updates? Task Manager and Details is the most user safe way of doing it. The only other way is to mess with your registry.

I did all the different ways none the set the priority to high none work only that works is to do it in task manager and you have to re do it ever time you open the client it’s not permanent

this might work

create a shortcut
when presented with 'type the Location of the item', enter -

C:WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c start "Ultima Online" /high "C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Ultima Online Classic\client.exe"


when presented with 'type a name for this shortcut', enter (a descriptive name such as) -
Ultima Online (high priority, patch checking skipped)


when the shortcut is created, edit the shortcut you just created, and modify the 'Start in' field to be your installed UO CC path -
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Ultima Online Classic"


priority is probably needed to be set only on the 'client.exe' file?
loading the 'client.exe' file directly will skip the patch updating.
this will be a problem once a publish forces the patch to be a requirement.

not sure about setting priority on both 'UO.exe' and 'client.exe'.
meh.
