OneDrive Nag Message at Start-Up


I get the nag screen on startup, but there is no process in taskmanager/startup.

Any other suggestions? I only want to disable the nag screen, not uninstall OneDrive.

 

Windows Update Error Message 0x80070543


Ya Ya Ya, there's over a hundred threads like this, ...

Anyway, started getting this error message a few days ago, and done a lot of searching on this error message, apparently it's not, uncommon.

In particular, the (currently) 4 updates that are being affected are:

• Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 (KB3173428) - Error 0x80070543
• Security Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 (KB3172729) - Error 0x80070543
• Security Update for Adobe Flash Player for Windows 10 Version 1511 (KB3174060) - Error 0x80070543
• Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 (KB3176493) - Error 0x80070543

The actions I've taken to date are:

1. Uninstalled firewall program (comodo)
2. Uninstalled anti-virus (Avast)
3. Reset the windows update catalog on local machine.

So the above errors are with the above done.

What other steps should I be taking to resolve the issue?

Below is notations for when I actually add to this thread.

1. Attempted to use the troubleshooter, no dice.

 

Remove programme update nag?

I have been using XXCopy (kind of super-charged XCopy) for at least 20 years and have many scripts that I use regularly - some of them every day. (There is also 'Robocopy' of course but (just to be clear from the outset) I am not interested in replacing all my XXCopy scripts with ones for Robocopy as a 'solution' to my question *Smile XXCopy does all I want and I am very familiar with writing scripts I need... Just this update nag that is a bit of a 'fly in the ointment').

XXCopy closed down ten years ago now, but the installation regularly brings up 'CMD' windows reminding the user to update the programme. Not like it's one quick window.. there's lots of text, which slowly scrolls into view: you just have to sit back and wait...

What would be nice is to be able to kill this pointless nag script somehow, but I cannot work out how to do this at all. Has anyone any knowledge of this and would be able to help? Can't see that removing the update reminder would be doing anything 'illegal' now.. Can upload the XXCopy installer if needed...

(Googled this over the past few years, to no avail: there is one possibility posted long ago which suggests how to do what I want, but it is very dependent on having an older version of the programme than the one I have (the latest, from 2012, I guess).

Thanks
