I have a Windows 10 computer and the Microsoft Click to Run service consumes significant bandwidth.?

This service consumes hundreds of MB per day unless I keep turning it off or disconnect from the internet, even though I've set the computer for a metered connection. My family's data allowance is a total of only 500 MB per day. Is there a way to reduce the amount of bandwidth that the Microsoft Click to Run service consumes?

Quality answers only, please (don't just write something like "I don't know).
