I secured my update weeks ago, will this start on its own or can I still decide when I want to download this?

Well, if you go to your C drive and display hidden folders, if there is a folder called "Windows BT" that means that it has already downloaded and its ready to go. You just have to go to control panel > windows update or just click the windows upgrade notification (which ever works, sometimes one does and the other doesn't) and you can upgrade. It won't upgrade by itself but as for downloading, check to see if that folder is there and if not, then just do the control panel > windows update > check for updates thing and you can tell it download if it's avaliable for you.

Also note that you may have to change the view from "category" to "Large icons" in the top right of the control panel to find "windows update"

And also, if it doesn't update or install but the nofitication says it is still reserved, than you are on the waiting list
