Windows 10: How to block a specific windows update?

My PC worked fine.


I went away for a few days.


I came back and 2 updates applied KB45653351 and KB45653751. My pc now randomly hangs. I get a bing sound, and that's it, everything stops responding.


If I try and uninstall either or both of those updates, the re-apply at reboot, So I've got no way whatsoever of having a working system.


Please MS, allow me to stop your **** from breaking my PC time after time after time.


How can I keep an update from applying? so I can try each one to see which causes the issue?

How to block a specific app using family settings

Hi,

Blocking specific apps is possible with the Microsoft Account's Family Safety Feature. To block a specific application on your child's account, it is a requirement that the app must be used by your child, so that it will appear in under the Recent Activity
list. For your child's security, you can log in as the child and launch the app to satisfy this requirement.

Follow these steps to successfully block specific applications:

• Visit the Microsoft Family website and then sign in your Microsoft Account.
• Click the account of the child that you want to block from using an app.
• Select Recent Activity.
• Click to ensure that Activity Reporting is turned on.
• Scroll down and look for Apps & Games.
• Choose the apps that you want to block on your child's account.
• Click Block to block usage of the app.

Hi Maxine,

Thank you for posting on Microsoft Communities.

I will be glad to help you with the issue you have with the computer. I understand the frustration when things don't work the way it should.

What is the browser you are working on?

Internet Explorer provides many different ways to control the cookies that are stored on your computer. You can block or allow cookies or you can choose the specific sites that you'll accept cookies from. When you make these sorts of changes, the cookies
that are already stored on your computer will not be affected. For that reason, you might want to delete the cookies already stored on your computer before following the steps below:

Block or allow cookies from specific websites

• 
  Open Internet Explorer. Click on the gear icon on the top right hand corner.
  
• 
  Click the Tools button, and then click Internet Options.
  
• 
  Click the Privacy tab, and then move the slider to a position between the top and bottom so you are not blocking or allowing all cookies.
  
• 
  Click Sites.
  
• 
  In the Address of website box, type a website address, and then click
  Block or Allow.
  
  As you type, a list of webpages that you have already visited will be displayed. You can click an item in the list and it will be displayed in the
  Address of website box.
  
• 
  Repeat step 5 for each website you want to block or allow. When you are finished, click
  OK.
  
• 
  Move the slider back to the position it was originally in, and then click
  OK.
  

Hope this information is helpful. Please post in case you have any further issues, we are happy to help you further.

Thank you.

 

[Windows 10] hide/prohibit install of specific Windows Update

I have never intentionally used windows to provide my device drivers (except for older printers without Vendor drivers for clients). I only manually update from the vendor websites. Will just have to make a list of things to disable/remove if I finally decide to load it up on a machine.
