I take a snapshot immediately then load from that when it expires. Or there is some arcane, verbose powershell incantation that has also worked for me.

This works for my web testing purposes, but probably isn't practical for a CNC machine.

Since the CNC maschine/controler should no be connected to the internet anyway it's not important...and even then, you still get sec-updates.
