Windows update

[IgorM]

I've installed a new version of windows on my laptop but it had some bugs and was not runnig well (like a lot of people had). So I went back to the old version but now it's asking frequently to update and it seems I can't avoid it anymore. What can I do?

•        Open Control Panel
•        Open Security
•        Select ‘Windows Update
•        Select the option View Available Updates in the upper left hand corner
•        Locate the update in question, right click and select ‘Hide Update

How did you install a new version of windows?

Did you do a clean install the proper way?

What operating system are you using

Regardless just type "Windows Update" in the search bar in the bottom left hand corner of the screen. Click " Show Available Updates" then right click on the Update you don't want to update. And it will not be installed anymore.

Ok but did you clean install windows 10 before that? Or did you upgrade from 7 or something else?

So you're saying the Windows update has already been installed? Then you will have to uninstall it.

 

 

The option to uninstall Windows Updates (not driver updates) is buried in the Settings app. Head to Settings > Update & security > Windows Update >

 

Update history. Click the “Uninstall updates” 

 

I think for win10 you need a program to stop specific windows updates.

clean install, working fine for months. Then after the update it started to have some issues so I went back to the old one. Now it's asking to update again
